Several 3rd party watch faces no longer work on 8.xx including GearMin & Digic Watch

Send a quick note to the developer - that'#s probably related to the updated CIQ

What's happening? Are they crashing? Nothing in the app store has been built with CIQ 3.1 at this point, but things built with 3.0 should run fine. I've not had an issue with any of my CIQ apps on 8.01 or 8.02.

They're crashing with a CIQ! icon immediately.

Have you tried a simple reboot of the watch? Hold the light button until it turns off (15 seconds or so) and turn it back on.

Hi Bart F would you send [email protected] a zipped copy of your GARMIN folder without the maps/.img files? A list of any of the CIQ watch faces that are not working correctly would be helpful as well!

Thanks,

Courtney

I have the same problem with GearMin V 8.1.2 on my Fenix 5x plus

Battery continues to drain during "Resume Later"....not sure if it's specific to this beta but I've reported it via email.

I ran today with only the OHR and stopped for about 30 mins or so....battery continued to drain as if I was still in the activity. Kind of makes that option pointless! Here's a screenshot of the battery drain graph....you can see the almost vertical drop of when I was stopped and it was in the Resume Later state...

peakrodent what do you use to get that data to reflect in the app? Thanks
