Lily breastfeed tacking

Hi,

I got a Garmin Lily for my wife, now that pregnancy is over and we've got a beautiful healthy son, she's looking for a way to track breastfeeding, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anything available. I thought that she could rename some of the activities to, say anything similar to 'Breasteeding Left' and 'Breastfeeding Right' and could track those, but it seems renaming isn't an option either, is it?

So few questions

  1. Is there a widget we can somehow install to track custom activities.
  2. Can we somehow rename existing activities on the device or from garmin connect?
  3. I had a look at garmin connect-iq api's as I'm a software engineer - the documentation states that connect-iq isn't capable with garmin lily is an sdk for it that allows custom widget development? I'd gladly implement such an widget and will donate it to anyone out there?

Thanks,

Valentin

  • That's just an example for a custom named activity, I've got a garmin sport watch and I can create custom activities and name them, however, I like. Imagined that on Lily there would be such an option. What would work well for my wife is having two activities named after the each of her breasts. That's why I used left, right, could be Bertha and Karon, as well :) The idea was if she could somehow rename the predefined activities so that at the end of the day, if she looks at the app after syncing she'd see the order of the breastfeed activities, knowing how log each took and which *** she used.
    She currently keeps track on that on her note app on the phone and that's no really convenient.

  • Hello

    You are not able to create a custom widget, but like you have perhaps already seen, there are options from Connect IQ for such tracking like BabyLog: Feed. Unfortunately the Lily is not compatible with Connect IQ, so this would not work for her. 

    You can, however, perform an activity on the watch labeled "Other", and then rename it after you complete and save the activity. You can also add notes.

    You may not have the "Other" activity option on your Lily yet. To check this, open up your Connect app. Go to your More page > Garmin Devices > select your Lily > Activity Options. Find "Other." If it is under "Disabled Activities", select "Edit", and then remove an activity from the top list (you can only have 6 activity options at a time). Add "Other". Save this and then sync with your watch. 

    Once you have completed your "Other" activity, sync again and view your activity within the Connect app. Select the 3 dots in the upper right hand corner with your activity details open, and touch "Edit Activity". From here, you can rename it and add notes. 

    I hope this helps!
