About
Data Lover 6 puts the most important Garmin watch-face features first: full customization from your phone and compatible watches, nine coordinated themes, a dedicated low-power Always-On Display, and flexible data and goal fields.
KEY FEATURES
- Customize themes, time format, data fields, goals, labels, icons and supported colors through Connect IQ phone settings or directly on compatible watches.
- Choose from nine complete themes: Original, Monochrome, Ocean, Forest, Sunset, Lavender, Luxury, Sport and Alert.
- Use a dedicated AOD with a true black background, theme-aware time color, 12/24-hour support, efficient partial updates and automatic burn-in position shifting where required.
- Reassign available indicator and goal slots without reinstalling the watch face.
- Switch supported indicators between readable text labels and custom icons.
- Follow progress with rings, half-rings, lines, bars, edge indicators and side arcs.
- Enjoy high-contrast typography, responsive spacing and layouts optimized for round, square, rectangular, AMOLED and smaller Garmin displays.
THEMES & INDIVIDUAL COLORS
A theme coordinates supported time, date, day, data, label, icon, goal, progress, separator, shape and AOD colors while preserving the original background artwork. Supported colors can also be changed individually for a more personal design.
ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY
The simplified AOD keeps the time easy to read while reducing illuminated pixels and unnecessary drawing. It follows the selected time format and theme, uses efficient low-power updates and shifts position on devices that require burn-in protection.
COMPLETE INDICATOR CATALOG — 45 CHOICES
Activity & movement: Steps, Intensity Minutes, Moderate Minutes, Vigorous Minutes, Calories, Distance, Floors Climbed, Floors Descended, Push Distance, Elevation, Accelerometer, Fitness Activity, Motion Intensity, Move IQ, Weekly Running Distance, Weekly Cycling Distance.
Health, recovery & sleep: Heart Rate, Resting Heart Rate, Body Battery, Stress Levels, Respiration Rate / Breaths per Minute, Pulse Ox, Enhanced Beat-to-Beat / B2B, Recovery Time, Sleep Mode, Sleep, Advanced Sleep, Sleep Score, Training Status, Health Snapshot, Index Scale Biometrics.
Weather & outdoors: Weather, Wind Speed, Weather + Wind, Temperature, High / Low Temperature, Rain Probability, Humidity + UV Index, Atmospheric Pressure, Next Sun Event, Solar Input.
Smart & device: Device Battery Percentage, Notifications, Connection Status, Next Calendar Event.
GOALS, PROGRESS & LAYOUT
Data fields can be paired with visual goals using independent start, end and remaining-track colors, or colors linked to their matching indicator. Depending on the design, indicators can use text, symbols, compact rows, balanced columns or progress-focused layouts.
TIME & DATE
Choose Follow Device, 12-hour or 24-hour time. Supported date, day name and secondary time information can use their own colors.
COMPATIBILITY & EFFICIENCY
Device-aware checks prevent unsupported metrics from causing errors. Compatible on-watch menus hide choices when the required Garmin API is unavailable; unavailable sensor data safely falls back instead of interrupting the watch face.
Feature availability depends on the Garmin model, display, sensors, permissions, firmware, Connect IQ version and Garmin API support.
