    Test conditions on real tactix 8: minimal view, black background, one rectangle that snaps to the finger position in onDragging. No bitmap blits, no scene graph, no math — drawContent is effectively empty. Measured behavior First second or two: events...
  • Ambient light sensor API — 5+ years, 3+ threads, still no access. Time to unlock modern Garmin displays.

    Hi Garmin team, I'm opening this ticket to consolidate a request that keeps resurfacing across the developer community. The ambient light sensor is physically present in nearly every modern Garmin watch, yet Connect IQ developers still have no way to...
  • Heart rate graph

    • Acknowledged on
    • 0 Comments
    The graph lines on the y axis are from 78 to 190. My heart rate is about 70 to 90. So only the bottom part of the graph is used with the top all unused. This makes it harder to visualise. Y axis should dynamicly adjust based on the range for selected...
  • Allow HTTP Access on Android

    Currently, access to HTTP servers (without encryption) is only possible when Garmin devices are paired with iOS devices. When paired with Android devices, HTTPS is enforced. To my understanding, this is not an inherent limitation of Android itself,...

    • 2 Comments
    In the API docs, the nativeNum option is documented for ActivityRecording.Session.createField(), but not DataField.createField(), although I believe it's actually available for both functions. (Since I have an old CIQ data field which uses nativeNum,...

    In SDK 9.1.0 the function UserProfile.getPowerZones() was introduced but the simulator has no values for powerzones. Pleas add power zones to the simulator.
  • HTTP requests on Android return -300 instead of -1001

    • Acknowledged on
    • 0 Comments
    When accessing an HTTP URL via Communications.makeWebRequest(), a -1001 error (SECURE_CONNECTION_REQUIRED) should be returned if an HTTPS connection is required (when the device is paired with an Android phone). This seems to have worked like that in...

    • 0 Comments
    Hello, This proposal concerns improvements to the Connect IQ app store for developers. If you have many apps published, in my case over 40, publishing updates via a browser (for example, when new devices are released or SDK updates) becomes very time...
