About

Connectivity (must read!)
Garmin wearables rely on a smartphone for network access. If you use a VPN solution such as Tailscale on your phone to access evcc, it will also work with the watch. When paired with an iPhone, the app can access the local evcc HTTP interface directly. When paired with an Android phone, Garmin requires HTTPS with a valid certificate. There are multiple ways to provide HTTPS access to evcc. For details, see the Connectivity section of the user manual: https://evccg.metiq.com#connectivity
Legacy Devices
Since v2.0.0, the following devices are no longer supported: Fenix 6 and 6 Pro, Forerunner 745 and 945, and Vivoactive 3. If you are using one of these devices, you can switch to the evcc Legacy app. It will continue to receive bug fixes and compatibility updates for breaking changes in the evcc API, but no new features.
