Seconds gauge to remain visible

Former Member over 8 years ago

Hi,
I've downloaded few watch faces that should have a operating seconds gauge. For some reason it is not showing up on my watch. I even saw a youtube movie where it is working on a Fenix 5X. Is there a setting option that enable/disable this option?
Thanks,
Itay

I would contact the creator of the watchface, as it works well on the built in watchfaces.

This is a new feature in connect IQ. What FW version do you have on your watch, and is it an APAC device?

Many of the native watchfaces have been able to display seconds all the time on many devices since they came out, but "always active" is new with connect IQ version 2.3.1. If you're not sure if your watch supports it (old FW possibly), go to "Settings>About" and on the 3rd screen you'll see the CIQ version. One thing to watch is if it shows seconds for 1-2 minutes and then stops, it is something in that specific watch face (the "power budget" was exceeded)

If it's just one watch face, contact the developer. If you want to try one that's known to work, I have a bunch in the store: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/develo...fa04947c3/apps "Simple Big" would be a good candidate.
