Need a bit of light ? Use the flashlight.
This is a very simple widget that you can use to get a little light while in complete darkness.
It turns the screen white and the backlight on while in use.
TIP : use the Garmin Express utility to rearrange widgets so that the flashlight is the last on the list; it will then be displayed first when pressing the UP button while displaying the watch face.
IMPORTANT :
* IT WILL DRAIN BATTERY POWER if left running; do not use extensively; hit the BACK/LAP button to go back to the watch once you're done
* don't expect a 1000 lumen flashlight; it will be just enough to find something in your backpack or car in complete darkness
* Flashlight uses the backlight of your screen, so you can adjust the backlight level in the settings
Note : there is a quick almost unnoticeable flicker when the system tries to turn of the backlight and then it turned back on; this is normal and the delay depends on the backlight timeout set in the device configuration.
Did I mention not to overuse the widget as IT WILL DRAIN YOUR BATTERY ?
