Welcome! In front of me I have Garmin Venue 3 and I'm gonna show you how to set image as a watch face on this watch
0:08
Basically if you want to use your own image or a picture as a watch face
0:16
Before we start, if you want to set image as a watch face on this watch, your watch needs to be paired with a phone via the Garmin Connect application
0:24
Once devices are paired together we can continue. And now we need to download and install the Connect IQ Store application on the phone that is paired with our watch
0:34
So make sure you have the internet connection and Bluetooth enabled. Once you do, open the App Store on your phone
0:40
I'm gonna open Google Play Store but if you're using the iPhone you can also open App Store on your iPhone and you will find the Connect IQ Store application in there
0:49
So basically in the App Store tap on Search, type in Connect IQ Store and tap on Search
0:58
And on the list of apps you should see this application Connect IQ Store by Garmin with this icon
1:05
So once you find this app, tap on the Install button to download and install it
1:12
And after the application is done installing you can tap on the Open button to open it
1:17
In the app tap on Welcome, tap on Continue or if you want to switch the account you can tap on Switch Accounts if you want to
1:26
I'm just gonna tap on Continue. Check the box, tap Next. Allow the permission
1:40
And after a couple of seconds you should see the IQ Store
1:44
Now find the icon called Face It and tap on it. And here we can set up our custom watch face
1:51
So tap on the plus button and you have two options, Camera or Gallery
1:57
If you select the Camera option it will open the Camera app
2:01
You can take a picture and use it as a watch face. And if you select the Gallery option it will open the Gallery on your phone
2:09
And you can browse through the photos on your phone and select the picture from your phone basically
2:14
Okay, let's select the Gallery. I'm gonna use the Gallery option. Now find the picture you want to use
2:23
So I'm gonna select for example this one. And here we have a preview of our watch face and we can customize it
2:30
Basically if the picture is too big to fit on the watch face you will see that you can move around the picture like that
2:38
And you can zoom in, zoom out and whatever is gonna be inside of our watch face
2:45
So basically in this highlight it's gonna be on our watch face. So if you position it like this it's gonna have this part of the picture as a watch face
2:55
Okay, now we can also set the type of the clock. We have different types as you can see
3:04
Once you select the type of the clock you can also tap on the bucket icon to change the color of the accents
3:12
And then you can also tap on the clock icon to change the type of the font
3:19
And once you're done customizing your watch face you can tap on Done, Name it, Save
3:26
And here we have the watch face. And you can also set up more if you want to
3:30
But once you set up the watch face you can select it, tap on Install
3:35
Tap on OK and it's gonna start uploading to your watch basically
3:42
So let's wait. And once it's done you will see it on your watch
3:51
For some reason it looks kinda weird because it cut the part of the 5 as you can see
3:58
But that's how it looks like. And once you're done you can close the app
4:04
And that's how you set an image as a watch face on this watch
4:08
