Link to Garmin Pay Elite Version: https://apps.garmin.com/apps/68e85cf4-2308-40c7-9ea1-0e762cbd29a6 Please let me know via the 'Contact Developer' button if you have any issues so I can resolve them quickly. Problems & solutions: - The displayed sunset/rise time is not correct - The message "GPS?" is displayed - Update the saved location of the watch face: Go to the start screen of an activity such as running and wait until the watch has a GPS signal. - The displayed moonset/rise time is not correct - See the step above. The times for the moon may differ by a few minutes as these are calculated locally on the clock and the algorithm is quite complex - The displayed location is not correct - See the step above. However, the location may remain inaccurate when using Garmin Weather, depending on the coverage of the measuring stations. A more accurate alternative is to use the OpenWeatherMaps provider. Instructions can be found here: https://gapps.orcatec.net/misc/weather.php - The time format is not correct (12/24h) - The time format is changed in the system settings of the clock: Navigate to System - Time - Format and change it there - The temperature (°C/°F) or distance unit (km/mi/ft) is not correct - Is changed in the system settings on the clock itself. Navigate to System - Format - Units and change it there Please let me know via the "Contact Developer" b
