Can't uninstall Garmin widgets

Former Member over 6 years ago

Hi all,

I one month user of Descent MK1 and have some troubles to uninstall the Garmin widgets. Firsts days I tried to install all the widgets that I think I will use, now there are few of one that I want to remove from the "menu", for example Compass (because I can use an ABC widget) or altimeter -for the same reason- and be more clear the widget menu. But when I try to uninstall it from Garmin Connect App it says: "Can't remove widgets". Do anyone know how to do it?

It happens the same with Apps and Activity.

Thank you

Bring up the widget on your watch and hold UP/MENU, once the menu for that widget comes up scroll down until you see “Remove Widget” and hit start.

Hope that helps.

That's is! I thought I has to do only on mobile APP.

Thanks!

Just got my Mk1 today and recently owned Fenix 5X. I don't see the option to add Inreach to the watch is this not supported on the Mk1?

The Descent Mk1 is not compatible with the inReach Mini. To see the complete list of devices that are compatible, please visit the inReach Mini’s site.

Though I will personally pass on the suggestion to see if we can make the Descent Mk1 compatible with the inReach Mini.

Is there a reason why the InReach Mini isn't compatible with the Mk1 when it's compatible with the Fenix series out of the box (despite the known bugs)? Do you have any updates on that suggestion being followed up on now that we're 4 months down the road since that comment was made?

We are planning to add inReach mini support in an upcoming software release, but I do not have an expected release date at this time.
