Getting Started with the Connect IQ Store App

The Connect IQ™ Store app is designed to help you manage all your Connect IQ content in one place. If you want to make a new watch face or download one made by a developer, install a music app to listen to music and podcasts from your watch, or you need that perfect data field for your activities, all this and more can be done or found in the Connect IQ Store.

The four tabs at the bottom of the screen help you to navigate the app:

  • IQ Store - browse new and trending apps in various categories
  • Search - find apps, watch faces or data fields
  • Face It® - guides you through making a watch face out of your favorite pictures
  • My Device - shows what is installed allowing you to manage your watch faces, apps, and data fields
