Welcome! In front of me I have Garmin Instinct 2X Solar and I'm gonna show you how to install
0:06
applications on this watch. Before we start if you want to install applications on this watch
0:15
your watch needs to be paired with a phone via the Garmin Connect application. Once the devices
0:22
are paired together we can continue. And now we need to download and install the Connect IQ
0:28
application on the phone that is paired with our watch. So open the App Store. I'm gonna use the
0:35
Google Play Store because I'm using the Android phone but if you're using iPhone you can open the
0:39
App Store on your iPhone and you will find this application there. So open the App Store
0:45
tap on search and type in Connect IQ and tap on search. And you should see this application
0:50
Connect IQ Store by Garmin with this icon. Once you find this app tap on install
1:02
And after the application is done installing tap on the open button
1:05
to open it. In the app rather tap on welcome, continue, check the box, tap next
1:21
If you're being asked for the permission allow it. And here we have the IQ Store. You have different categories of apps and watch faces. I'm gonna tap
1:37
on search, tap on apps here at the top to narrow my search only to apps. Now let's find the app
1:46
we want to install. I don't know maybe this one. And once you find the app tap on it. As you can
1:53
see here we have this install button. We can install the app. Before that though you can also
1:57
check the screenshots, description, reviews and you can also check if your watch is compatible
2:02
with the app. To do it tap on compatible devices, scroll through the list and let's look for the
2:08
Instinct watch. It should be somewhere here. Okay you have Instinct 2 Solar, Instinct 2, Instinct 2S, 2S, 2S, 2S and here we have
2:34
Instinct 2X Solar which means that this watch is compatible with this app
2:39
So we can tap on install. As you can see the app is installing. Sometimes it takes
2:46
a long time for it to install because something is in queue before the app. For example some
2:50
update or something. But at this moment the app is installing and after it's done
2:55
you will see the pop-up on the screen. So let's wait. No, this pop-up. Once you see this pop-up on the screen it means that the app is installed
3:03
Also you will see that the install button changed to uninstall. Okay now we can go to our watch
3:10
and on the watch you can press the GPS button to open the quick or favorites menu, something like that. Then you can scroll through it
3:21
and at the bottom you should see the app you installed and you can press the GPS button
3:26
to open it. And as you can see it's working
3:47
Okay. Let's close this. Of course if you want to check the list of applications you installed
4:01
because you can install multiple applications, you can go back to the main page of the IQ Store then tap on my device and here you can tap on my device apps and you
4:10
will see the list of applications you installed on your watch. Okay and that's how you install
4:16
applications on this watch. Thank you for watching. If you found this video helpful
