• RE: New feature request: GPS accuracy in meters/feet + adding a satellite view app/widget

    I agree with Travis and jim_m_58 that this kind of feature is much less useful on a fitness device.


    But this device was not presented as ONLY a fitness device. I bought it for HIKING, and I want it to do and display EVERYTHING it is capable of doing…

  • RE: Datafield: Hiking Fields

    Few Questions / suggestions

    Great data field. It has the information that I want to see on one screen. (I would also like temperature .. but I am happy without.)

    I'm a bit confused on set up and some info...

    1) How do you change from a light background…

  • Fenix 3 REBOOT when starting a training session

    Even with the latest firmware versions for the Fenix 3 (V6.80 and V6.85beta) we have seen at least on 3 different devices that our applications lead to a REBOOT of the watch if a session is started (FIT logging starts) and a heavy load via bluetooth happens…

    At least, I think it is a resource error...

    Hi Connectors,

    I am in a bit of a bind here. I recently did some refactoring of my code to try to save some KBs and was left with a peculiar error:

  • RE: suggestion: "isBatteryCharging" in System Stats?

    Actually, I am using the same basic logic I posted months ago in a few watchfaces and apps, but do have the check that if it hasn't changed in ~45 seconds, it's no longer charging (as a watchface only updates every minute, this isn't bad). Also I check…

  • RE: ActivityMonitor Info Distance

    I'm sure the folks from Garmin will chime in tomorrow with a better, more complete, answer, but I'll throw this out anyway. There is a device-specific setting in Garmin Connect that supposedly relates to this. If you go to connect.garmin.com, click the…

    > Isn't it cheaper to buy a new battery?


    That's a good point, I could look into a buying a new battery but my programming fingers are itching for a potential quicker fix...

    I use getSystemStats().battery in my Battery Gauge widget, and the widget shows 100% when my fenix 3 is fully charged.
    I Did a test yesterday, charged the watch untiil Garmin's charge screen showed 100%.

    So on my fenix 3 there is no…

  • More a question than an App request - Heart rate on watch face

    This is just something I've been idly thinking of, and was wondering if there was an implementation reason I wasn't seeing this yet, or if no one thought of, or was interested in it. With the FR 235, when I want to see what my heart rate is at some random…

  • RE: Back button or Ui.popView() problem on Forerunner 230?

    In my app I see a lost key after a session.start(), and also after a session.stop().

    So when I first start recording, I see it, and if I stop a recording to pause, I see it, and start the session after the pause and I see it. I don't see it when doing…
