I have Venu 2, and am wondering if anyone else can see HR Line chart, if you set it for the bottom chart? It just shows a blank chart for me. If I choose e.g. Pressure line chart, it shows.

In Garmin Conenct Mobile (Android) you can select the apps that may send the messages to the watch.

This worked! I do notice quite a delay in the update for the weather. Watch currently shows 42*F and it's actually 55*F, on my Accuweather app on the phone. Is there a way to adjust it to make it update more frequently?

Hi Peter, thanks a lot for excellent work! I’ve been using Data Lover on Forerunner 245 for some time and noticed possible issue with non Latin characters in Weather location. Is this related to data source or is this Data Lover UTF-8 support issue?

I’m talking about characters like ą, ž, š in location name.

peterdedecker over 5 years ago in reply to Former Member

Data Lover has a routine to remove diacritics from characters but unfortunately the weather source sometimes doesnt deliver the city named in utf8 (at times it's delivering 2 characters to represent one). It's on my to do to try to fix this too though....

Hi I have a Forerunner 235 and I love the Data Lover watch face- downloaded a few weeks ago. One thing tho - i don't like my watch telling me to move all the time, even a after a 10 mile run! I can't see a way to remove the move circles from the face - am i missing something?

peterdedecker over 5 years ago in reply to angusmoyes

Currently on the forerunner 235 the move circles are the only option for the right chart, but the good news is that I still have a lot of memory left on the 235 and plan to review the right chart options in one of the upcoming releases.

(The vibration warning itself you're getting is not coming from the watch face though, you can disable the move warning from within garmin connect mobile)

Thanks for getting back to me. Appreciate that. I'll look forward to the upcoming release. Thanks for a great app!

Hi Peter,

I just bought a Forerunner 45 this week. When I change one of the fields to hearth rate, all red rings in the Move Circles graph turn white and stay white.

The only way to turn them red again, is to reinstall the watchface. Have you heard of this issue before and do you need a debug log to look into this?

peterdedecker over 5 years ago in reply to Vincent van Leijden

hi Vincent, that sounds strange (and nearly impossible really) as the move warning is unrelated to the heart rate field, but I have a friend with a 45, I'll see if I can borrow it. :)

The move warning should have 1 ring turn on if you are not active enough during 1 hour (next rings every 15 minutes after that)
