How to use

Install

  1. Install the Connect IQ app on your phone and sign in with your Garmin account.
  2. Search "Navy Bloom" in the Connect IQ app, open the face and tap Install (paid faces show the price first).
  3. Sync the watch in Garmin Connect, then pick the face on the watch in the watch face menu.

How to set it up

  • On the watch on watches with Garmin's watch face editor (fenix 8 and newer, Venu 4, vivoactive 6, Forerunner 570/970, Enduro 3 and others), long-press the watch face and choose Customize (Garmin's editor) to set the theme and the three row values; flower, battery, flower name, date format, always-on and touch are set in the Connect IQ app on your phone. On other watches, open the watch face menu (hold MENU, or long-press the screen on touch watches), select Navy Bloom and its settings: everything is there, no phone needed.
  • In the Connect IQ app on your phone open the watch face, tap Settings, save. If the settings don't sync, restart watch and phone, then sync in Garmin Connect.

What it does

  • 12 botanical illustrations that follow the month: snowdrop, crocus, daffodil, tulip, lily of the valley, rose, poppy, lavender, sunflower, aster, cyclamen and holly. Or pick one flower to keep all year
  • Row of three values at the top, each shows one of 15 values or stays empty: heart rate, stress, Body Battery, steps, floors, calories, intensity minutes, Pulse Ox, respiration, weather temperature, sunrise/sunset, notifications, recovery time, distance or watch battery
  • Battery percent is always visible: choose Watch battery in the row, otherwise a small percentage sits at the lower right; it can also show days left
  • Three looks: Paper (light), Night (dark) and Automatic, which follows sunrise and sunset
  • Large serif time and the date in words (WEDNESDAY 13 MAY), abbreviated, or as week number and date; day and month names, units and 12/24 h follow your watch settings
  • Optional flower name next to the illustration, off by default (in English or Czech; other watch languages show the Latin genus name, e.g. Convallaria)
  • Touch and hold a row value, the date or the small battery to open the matching Garmin widget (touchscreen watches)

Questions

No weather, temperature or sunrise?

Weather and location come from your phone. Make sure Garmin Connect has location access and the watch is connected; it can take a few minutes after a sync.

Why is the date abbreviated?

Full day and month names come with the face in English and Czech. In other watch languages the face uses the names provided by your watch (abbreviations if the watch gives only those). A very long date also switches to a smaller font or abbreviations when it does not fit.

Colours look different on my fenix 7 / Forerunner 255?

MIP displays show 64 colours, so the dial is flat there by design.

What's new

  • Version 1.0.1 Fix: sunrise and sunset showed -- instead of the time. The automatic day and night switch did not change because of it either. They now come straight from the watch (Connect IQ 4.2 and newer).
  • Version 1.0.0 First release of Navy Bloom: a botanical illustration for every month (12 flowers), Paper, Night and automatic day and night looks, a row of three values from 15 to choose, battery percent always visible, date in words, optional flower name, always-on in three styles on AMOLED and a MIP version.
