The Next Great Connect IQ Watch
Mystery “Tall Watch” Revealed
Back in January, we added the “Tall Watch” to the Connect IQ™ SDK, giving you the tools to develop for one of our most important device launches this year. Now it’s time to reveal the new vívoactive® HR — the ultra-thin fitness wearable evolved from our already successful vívoactive watch.
This new GPS smartwatch — with built-in sports apps for running, cycling, SUP, skiing/snowboarding, golfing, swimming and more — is your all-day, everyday partner in fitness. It combines Elevate™ wrist heart rate technology with smart notification features, activity tracking and wireless connectivity that enables automatic uploads to Garmin Connect™. Plus, with Connect IQ you can develop watch faces, apps and widgets for vívoactive HR users to easily customize the device.
