Hi, in front of me I have Garmin Venue 2S and I'm gonna show you how to
0:10
customize the controls menu on this device. First let me show you the
0:16
controls menu. So let's wake up the screen on our watch by pressing any of
0:21
the buttons and to open the controls menu press and hold the upper button and
0:28
after a second or two the controls menu should open and that's how it looks like
0:32
Here basically we have some shortcuts like power off, screen brightness, Garmin
0:39
Pay, music, do not disturb mode and stuff like that. And we can customize this menu
0:44
To do it let's go back to the watch face by pressing the lower button then press
0:49
and hold the lower button to open the menu. Now scroll down, tap on the settings
0:54
icon to open the settings. And in settings we have the controls option
0:59
Tap on it. As you can see here we have the controls menu and we can customize
1:05
customize it couple of ways. We can add or remove the icons or other shortcuts
1:12
To do it simply tap on one and then tap on the bin icon to remove it. Like that
1:18
And once you remove one you have space for new one and you will see the plus
1:22
button. So you can add a shortcut. Simply tap on the plus button and here you have
1:28
list of shortcuts you can use. For example alarms. Like this. And here we
1:33
have it. You can also move the icons. So for example I want to move the alarms
1:38
right here to the place of the Garmin Pay. To do it tap on the alarm, select it
1:45
and then tap on the icon you want to replace it with to move it to this
1:51
position. Quite simple. Like that. And once you're done customizing this menu
1:58
simply press the lower button to go back. And then when we open it we should have
2:04
the alarms right here. As you can see there it is. Okay. If your watch is paired
2:10
with your phone via the Garmin Connect app you can also change this on your phone. So bring our phone right here. Open the Garmin Connect app on our phone. In
2:20
the app. Let's select our Garmin Venue from here by tapping on this icon
2:25
And you should see the device page for the Venue 2S. Now scroll down, tap on
2:32
Appearance, select Controls menu and here we have it. And we can customize it. We
2:38
can remove icons by tapping on one and tapping on bin icon. Like this. Add icon
2:44
by tapping on plus. And here we can select it. For example battery saver. And
2:49
move icons by tapping on one and tapping on the second one. Like this. And you can
2:55
also tap right here on this icon to open the menu and you have Clear All to
3:00
remove them all or Reset to Defaults to reset them to default settings
3:05
Like this. And once you're done simply go back and wait until the devices are done
3:11
syncing. If they're not syncing you can tap on this icon to sync them. And that's
3:16
how you customize the Controls menu. Thank you for watching. If you found this
