Battery percentage and heart rate graph

Ben M 8 months ago

Just got my enduro 3 I've got my HR at the bottom but I'm used to my instinct where I had my nice HR graph at the top. I'm just left with a naff bar chart thing now. Also how do I get it to display percentage instead of days for battery? I've got the days in the circular window and enabled battery percentage but can't see anything in watch face settings added to show percentage instead of days.

Use The Power Of MANUAL: Battery display settings: https://www8.garmin.com/manuals/webhelp/GUID-7AD1A592-9044-4D84-9688-7B5209F85BFF/EN-US/GUID-A4E00381-0673-41A0-8353-67809793E449.html

If it's anything like older watches (FR955/FR965/Fenix 7/etc.), the battery percentage option refers to the battery indicator on the first page of glances, accessible from the watchface by pressing the down button or swiping up. (And also the battery indicator in the first page of the settings menu.)

I don't think it's supposed to affect the battery display in watchfaces.

EDIT: no, it's not like Forerunner after all

Seems pretty silly if they can't have it on the main display I've always been able to have either on the instinct.

Can't get over the awful bar chart graph for heart rate on the main screen though it's terrible! If I can't have the proper 4hr graph like the instinct has might aswell use the space for something that's actually useful.

Stock watchface on enduro2 has an hr-graph widged available, i think e3 has it also.

I hope so I couldn't find one, the solar and hr both have that awful bar graph.

Echo the battery percentage issue. I can't get it to display on the stock face. Having an estimate of days is useless.... It's gone from 36 days to 1 day when I had some music on then back to 35 days. A percentage is much more useful.

I've changed the settings as per the link to the manual, but this doesn't change the watch face.

Can't say I've been able to find anyway of changing the home screen bar graph to the same as the enduro 2 line graph

It's annoying isn't it! Garmin please let us change battery days 2 percentage

Yeah that's exactly what I said, but somebody didn't use The Power Of READING (not you, the guy who posted the passive-aggressive comment about using the manual)

If setting doesn't work its a bug :-)

Report it.

Who has no good luck referring to manual to those like me living on manuals on a daily basis: https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/outdoor-recreation/f/enduro-3/382282/why-no-white-faced-watchfaces-garmin/1822608#1822608

At least I got an advice about I had already known in a neutral way.
