SmartArcs Trip - Garmin Watch Face

SmartArcs Trip watch face is designed to show useful trip data in two configurable data fields and two graphs. The watch face is minimalist and highly customizable, you can easily create your very own look.

Arc indicators around the screen display:

  • battery status
  • number of phone notifications. First notification is displayed as five minutes arc, each other as one minute arc.
  • Bluetooth status
  • do not disturb status
  • number of alarms. First alarm is displayed as five minutes arc, each other as one minute arc.
  • heart rate (on watches supporting partial update)
  • sunrise, sunset and civil twilights

Data fields and graphs:

  • two configurable data fields (top and bottom) with options: distance walked, elevation, pressure, temperature
  • two configurable graphs (top and bottom) with options: elevation, pressure, heart rate, temperature
  • graphs show all history data with configurable borders, legend, line width and background color
  • configurable heart rate refresh interval

Time:

  • analog hour and minute hands

NOTE: Data are as accurate as watch sensors are. Temperature sensor is highly influenced by your body temperature. If you want to measure the temperature detach your watch from your hand, put it out of heat source and wait a few minutes.

Customization

Almost everything can be tailored to your taste:

  • rich color palette for every element, or a single accent color applied to all indicators
  • adjustable tick widths (1-minute, 5-minute and quarter-hour) and hand widths
  • optional hands outline
  • metric or non-metric units
  • toggle any indicator, data field or graph on or off

On-device settings

Quick toggles are available directly on the watch (without opening the phone app) for heart rate, power saver and lost and found.

Power saver

The built-in power saver mode can extend battery life. You can define the schedule (begin/end time) and the screen refresh interval during that window.

Lost and found

An optional lost and found feature can display contact details to help return the watch to its owner.
