Unable to open Watch Face settings in android connect application: error states I need forerunner 955 solar, but that's the device I have...

Hi! Whenever I try to open Watch Face settings in the android connect application I receive the following error:

Update Setting on Device
This setting is only available on forerunner 955 Solar.

But that is exactly the watch I have:
Forerunner 955 Solar
Software version: 12.23
[DFU-44be53]

How can I fix this error? Installing watch faces from Connect IQ works but I'm unable to edit settings.

It means you can only change on the watch.

You cannot change from GC.

Yes just go the watch face settings on you're smartwatch.

There it will work.

You will see that some settings can't be adjusted from Connect app.

Thank you, guys. Although I failed to find how to edit the watch face settings on smartwatches, your replies motivated me to look better and I've managed to change the watch face settings in Connect IQ application. The error message is very misleading.

I agree. The message could be better.

Long press the left middle button.

Watch face setting is the first one.
