So I got a sweet Garmin Vivoactive 3 delivered yesterday from my company… Because… Well… They are awesome and they actually show us they appreciate the hard work that we are doing my rewarding us with gifts to help us on our health and happiness journey. ❤️
I was so excited when I saw all the watch faces I could choose from in the Garmin Connect IQ app 😍, so I downloaded 6 of them. Then I went to apply them and 5 of the 6 had an error 🤦🏽♀️.
So obviously I scoured the internet to figure out why the faces wouldn’t work. I found a long thread about things that worked, then didn’t, like rebooting, but I tried that… 3 times already and still couldn’t see the faces🤷🏽♀️.
Then I found the solution of all solutions… Garmin Express! You download the application to your desktop then hook your Vivoactive 3 up with the power cord to your USB slot and it will sync and make updates to your smart watch that didn’t happen from within the watch menus (I had checked for updates within the watch menu and it had said it was up to date 🤔).
After the updates were complete… I had all my watch face options available! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
So I slept with my new Vivoactive 3 on 1 wrist and my old Fitbit Blaze on the other to see how they compare. I’ll be wearing both the whole day today too to continue my research 😂.
I’m a database analyst, so you probably won’t be surprised that I chose a face with all the DATA (Data Lover 🤣).
I think my favorite thing about my Garmin is that I can wear it while swimming, giving the kids a bath, washing dishes… You know all the things I can’t do while wearing my Fitbit Blaze. But I’m still a Fitbit fan because that’s where all my friends are that I do fitness challenges with.
Are you into fitness? How’s your health? You can’t outlift or outrun an unhealthy gut. 😝 But I’ve got something that might help. ❤️
