Although it is not explicitly listed in the release history, version 2.90 fixes the bug which limited CIQ memory to the same as available on most CIQ devices, e.g. 64KB for widgets. The 5X was supposed to have 1MB memory available for widgets but at initial release this was restricted to 64KB. I have just verified that the latest update has fixed this and removed the restriction.
I though that this would remove the max 2 IQ datafields per activity limit, but I just checked, and I still cannot add more than 2 IQ datafields per activity.
I believe the other CIQ 2.X devices are able to do this?
My Edge 1000 can display 10 IQ datafields in one activity, and according to devices.xml the F5X has the same or more memory than the now 3 year old Edge 1000. So I don't understand the 2 IQ datafield limit... CPU power?
So does this have any benefits for normal users or does it only benefit developers?
This will benefit normal users in that developers will be able to create better apps, widgets, watch faces etc for them to use. But you are correct, this is of no direct benefit to a user outside of a CIQ app.
