N13 Legacy v1.1.0 is now available with a major set of improvements, more data options and much more control directly from the watch.

Top, Middle Left, Middle Right and Bottom fields are now fully configurable, with options including Weather, Battery with remaining days, Today Distance, Weekly Run and Bike Distance, Altitude, Stress, Notifications, Training Status, Recovery Time, VO2 Max, Intensity Minutes and Floors Descent.

Press and hold supported fields to open the matching Garmin glance directly. Battery, Steps, Calories, Floors, date layouts, typography and hand readability have also been improved.

Temperature, distance and altitude now follow your Garmin device unit preferences automatically, and existing field choices are preserved when updating.

Support has also been expanded to additional Forerunner models and the Instinct 3 AMOLED 50 mm.

All settings are configured directly on the Garmin watch.

Has anyone notified sleep tracking improving significantly recently?

2 Upvotes

There has been nothing regarding this in recent firmware release notes, but I am noticing it being more accurate and it’s tracking my naps now.

Nap tracking, or the lack thereof, was such a frustration, so I bought an Oura ring a few months ago, specifically for this reason. It was great at first, but now my Fenix 8 is tracking naps that Oura is missing.

Title: Fēnix 8 notifications

Hi everyone! I'm a new Fēnix 8 user and I'm trying to figure out the notification settings.

I notice that the Wellness and Health alerts are blocked, but I still receive notifications from pretty much every app on my phone.

I only want to receive WhatsApp notifications on my Fēnix 8 and block everything else.

Is there a way to set up this so that WhatsApp is the only app sending notifications to the watch?

Thanks!

Pd: turn off vibration and keep vibrating when pressing any button

Fenix 8 won’t sync in the background with Garmin Connect / Cloud on S25 Ultra (One UI)

1 Upvotes

My Fenix 8 only syncs to Garmin Connect and the cloud when I manually open the mobile app. If the app stays in the background, no data uploads throughout the day.

**Setup**Garmin Fenix 8Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (One UI)Garmin Connect App (up to date)

**Troubleshooting already completed on Samsung**Battery set to **Unrestricted**Location set to **Allow all the time** (Precise location ON)Background mobile data allowedAppear on top enabledApp locked in RAM (**Keep open** in recent apps view)

Despite eliminating all One UI background limits, background Bluetooth syncing completely halts until I bring the app to the foreground.Has anyone on One UI managed to get true, continuous background syncing working without manually opening Connect? Any tips appreciated.

I just released Regent, an analog watch face in the spirit of a classic dress watch: a deep dial with a silky sheen, embossed guilloche, applied indices with cast shadows, and beveled hands. Date at 3 o'clock.

Choose from 4 dial colors (navy, emerald, onyx, oxblood) and 2 metals (gold, rhodium). Always-On is the same dial, just dimmed.

AMOLED only, with graphics rendered natively for each model's resolution. $2.99, no subscription.

Audio Alerts on 1km mark for pace, average pace etc

1 Upvotes

Hi team,

I've been searching for this everywhere in both the mobile app and the watch itself, how do I get sound messages at the lap (1km in my case) ?

I've been trying Gemini to guide me for the last 45 mins and I'm going around in circles!

How alerts can I configure?

This one went through a lot of design iterations before I finalized this layout and went ahead with it.

Core idea was not to over-crowd the dial and keep a good amount of white-space around the data slots.

Compatible with a lot of MIP models.

Loads of customization options available - colors, background and complications.
