How do I deleted my uninstalled Watch Faces from the Connect App on my iPhone

So I've been trying to delete my uninstalled Watch Faces from the Connect App on my iPhone and no matter how much I've tried I just can't see to do it.

I've read that you can uninstall them form the Garmin Express App on my laptop but that doesn't even show the uninstalled Watch Faces that are on my iPhone.

I've even deleted the Connect App on the iPhone and reinstalled the App but the uninstalled watch faces are still there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They're not installed anywhere. That's simply a list of watches you've tried in the past, kept in the "Not Installed" list for future use if you change our mind. As watch faces, they're no longer on your phone, computer or watch.... it's simply a list of past installs.

But I want to get rid of them. Surely there must be a way?!?

There is a way to delete/clean up the list but it's a bit conveluted.

1. connect your watch (oops) via usb to Garmin Express.

2. Click on IQ App and make sure that from the drop down menu, you select 'all' (or if you want to remove watchfaces only, select 'watchfaces') as the default is 'On your device' and therefore will not show uninstalled items.

3. Select the app you want to remove from the list (it should already be uninstalled on your watch) and right click it.

4. select 'remove from list'

5. Enjoy your nice and tidied up list of installed apps :-)

So i've tried this and it doesn't work.

1. I connected my iPone to the computer via USB and opened Garmin Express

2. I click on my device (Tactix Delta) and select IQ App

3. I then get a pop up window asking to plug in my device

4. No matter how long I wait it does not recognise my iPhone

Am I doing something wrong?

You shouldn't connect your iPhone, sorry, just realised I put that in my answer. Oops. You need to connect your watch.

After you tidied up the list in garmin express, it should sink with your iPhone garmin connect wireless.

When I connect the iPhone to Garmin Express and follow your instructions the "uninstalled watch faces' that are on my phone are not shown. The only watch faces shown are those actually installed.

You need to select 'all' from the dropdown menu, that will show all apps in the list, including the ones not on your watch.

Don't connect your phone, connect your watch.

The 'All' list only shows the watch faces installed on the watch, which is the same the you select 'Watch Faces"

I still have a load of uninstalled watch faces on my iPhone.

It would seem atm that it cannot be done on an iPhone.

Must be an Iphone thing, works fine on my Android device....
