Today we are going to show you how to change the watch face
on your Garmin Approach® S70 series golf watch.
Since there are three different methods for customizing the watch face, we will
break this video into three sections that you can access from the description or timeline.
First, we will show you how to select and modify built-in watch faces.
For this section, we will only need your watch.
From the watch face, press the menu button to access the menu.
Then tap “Settings” to select it.
Now scroll down and select “Watch Face”.
Here, you can scroll through the watch face options.
Additionally, you can build your own watch face
from scratch by selecting “Add New” at the bottom of the list.
In this video, we will select one of the preset watch faces.
If the watch face is already set to your liking, you may go ahead and select “Apply” to finish.
You may also scroll down through this menu
to modify watch face settings like data, color and much more.
We will just be showing you how to adjust the data,
but the steps are similar for the other options.
To adjust the data fields, select “Data”.
One of the data fields will be blinking and indicates the field that is being modified.
To change it, scroll up or down through the available data options.
Once you find your preferred data, press the Action button to select it.
The next data field will blink and allow you to change it.
Repeat this process until each field is set to your liking.
Once complete, you will see the menu screen again.
Scroll up and select “Apply” to complete the new watch face.
In this section we will cover installing watch faces from the Garmin Connect IQ™ Store.
Connect IQ™ offers thousands of downloads to customize your watch.
To get started, make sure your watch is paired with the Garmin Golf™ app.
Then install our Garmin Connect IQ™ App to your smartphone.
To begin, open the Connect IQ™ store app.
The main screen will show top downloads for watch apps, data fields, music services, watch faces
and widgets but in this video, we will only be guiding you through installing a watch face.
However, this process will be similar for these other Connect IQ™ downloads.
If you have more than one Garmin device, we need to choose the watch you want to modify.
To select the right watch, select “My Device”.
Then select the 3 dots on the top right.
Now touch “Select a Device” and then the watch you want to change.
Then press “IQ Store” to go back to the main IQ store page.
Select “Search” and then “Watch Faces” at the top.
The list is sorted by the most popular, but you can also search by design or title at the top.
In this example, we will select “Luminous” from the main list.
On the info tab you can review information about the download including screenshots.
To install the watch face, select “Install”.
Confirm any license agreements to proceed.
The installation will begin.
To check on the status you can go back to
the main Connect IQ™ screen and press on the “My Device” icon.
Once completed, the new watch face will be installed.
In addition, some Connect IQ™ downloads offer customization.
To access the available settings, select the app type and then the title of the installed download.
Select the Settings icon and adjust the available options to fit your preferences.
Once the changes are complete, select “Save”.
The changes will automatically sync to your watch.
In this section we will cover using Garmin Face It.
This feature allows you to use your own photos as a watch face.
To get started, make sure your watch is paired with the Garmin Golf™ app.
Then, install our Garmin Connect IQ™ app to your smartphone.
To begin open the Connect IQ™ store app.
Select “Face It”.
First, you will need to select a photo to use as the background.
Select the plus icon.
Select either camera to take a new photo or Gallery to search your smartphone.
After you add your photo, the default analog watch face will be shown.
Now you can pinch to zoom the photo or press and hold to move it.
Now, we can scroll through the available watch face designs to find the one you like best.
Simply touch the desired watch face to select it.
Data fields on a watch face can be moved by touching and dragging them where you want.
Next we can set the accent color by selecting the paint can icon.
Then, select a color.
The last field allows you to adjust the style of watch face elements like watch hands or the font.
Select the time icon and choose one of the styles.
Once you are finished, select “Done” to name your watch face.
If prompted, agree to the terms and conditions.
Select “Install” to download it to your watch.
Once the automatic sync is complete it will be displayed on the watch.
And that’s it!
Thanks for watching!
