3Install your watch faces
Before installing, check how many free places your watch has: Connect IQ app on your phone → Device → Installed Apps («… remaining»). Every Garmin watch holds a limited number of Connect IQ items — watch faces, apps and data fields together; the number depends on the model. No free places? Remove one you do not use first, otherwise the new face stays hidden. The limit is Garmin’s, not ours: the faces you bought always stay here in «My watch faces», installed or not — remove one from the watch any time and install it again later.
New watch faces first
We e-mail you when a new face is out — including the free ones you can get only here, before they reach the Connect IQ Store.
Installing a pack: step-by-step guide →
After installing
- A face is not in the list although it was installed? The watch is full: every Garmin watch holds a limited number of Connect IQ items — watch faces, apps and data fields together, the number depends on the model — and the ones over the limit stay hidden. The Connect IQ app on your phone shows how many are left (Device → Installed Apps). Remove faces you do not use and install again — or install only the faces you want with «Install». Faces from the Connect IQ Store are removed in the Connect IQ app (Device → Watch Faces).
- To remove a face installed by cable: on newer models (fēnix 8/9, Forerunner 965/970 and others) the watch hides the file once you unplug, so it is not in File Explorer or in «Files on the watch» any more — remove it with Garmin Express on Windows (it does not work on a Mac), or in the Connect IQ Store app on the watch if your model has one. On models where the file stays in GARMIN/Apps, Delete in «Files on the watch» works.
- Unplug the watch. On most models hold the UP / MENU button on the watch face, choose Watch Face and pick the new face.
- These faces are set up on the watch itself (watch face menu → Customize): phone settings work only for faces installed from the Connect IQ Store.
- Updates do not arrive automatically. When a new version is out, open this page again and install it the same way.
Without Chrome
- Windows: download the .prg file(s), connect the watch and copy them into the GARMIN\Apps folder in File Explorer.
- Mac: newer macOS cannot open the watch as a drive — use Chrome or Edge and the button above.
