Default Watch Faces

Former Member over 8 years ago

I currently have the 735 and my wife has the Vivoactive HR. Her watch has four default watch faces: two digital and two analog. Mine only has one: digital. Is this right, or did an update that I applied (on version 3.30) not take correctly? Similarly, I seems that the digital watch face on the Fenix can be customized to a degree, while the same digital watch face on the 735 has no options, at least on mine.

Just seems strange to me.

The va-hr actually has a couple pre-installed Connect IQ watchfaces (these written by Garmin - the analog ones.)

In the Connect IQ app store there are a bunch of additional watchfaces for the 735

Yeah, I am using ActiFace, but I just thought it was odd that the 735 has fewer installed by default. Made me wonder if I needed to reset mine.

The 23x also has only one native watchface. The native ones actually run on their own low power chip (that's why they can display seconds all the time) while CIQ watchfaces run on the main processor. The va-hr has two native watchfaces - the traditional and modern digital.
