Beers Earned Plus (track beers earned per workout)

First step....verify in the Connect IQ app that it's installed (sometimes it gets stuck as "queued"). Garmin doesn't make it easy to use Connect IQ data fields. After you install them on your device, you must manually add it as a data field to EACH ACTIVITY you want to use it in (for example, running, biking, hiking, etc.). For an example of this on the Fenix 5 watches, watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5HYBabeB2s. Basically, in the activity, go to its settings, then data screens, and then add a screen or select an existing screen. Within that screen, and select the Connect IQ » Beers Earned as one of the data fields.

I agree! Garmin *should* buy out the dev for a pile of money and pre-install this! I mean...they have hydration tracking, but not this?!?! ;-)

I just released v2.4.1 to address this. Previously, the user had to select a color, and it would not honor the default of the device they were using. Now it uses the device default background color, but you can override it in the settings (like before). Note that if you select "Stout" as the beer style, the background will always be white (or else the stout is too dark to see).

On the Garmin Connect Mobile app, view the details for an activity (you have to have recorded it using an activity with the Beers Earned data field configured). At the VERY bottom of the 2nd tab you'll see the cumulative total, and the bottom of the 4th tab is a yellow graph showing how they were earned. In Garmin Connect for the web, it's at the bottom of the activity details screen, under the heading "Connect IQ"

That does seem like a high number of beers (that might only earn me 2-3 beers), unless you're riding a fat tire single-gear or something. You may want to go into the settings in Connect IQ mobile and make sure the "calories per beer" is set correctly (it defaults to 150).

Those are all great ideas! And while you can view the Bears Earned on each individual workout (in Connect or Connect Mobile), unfortunately Garmin's Connect IQ restrictions don't provide a way to do this. If that changes in the future, I'll definitely look into implementing it!

As a data field, It doesn't activate on its own (Garmin's limitation). please read the app description of how it must be added to a data screen for each activity you wish to use it with. If you'd like more specific help, please use the "Contact Developer" link.

I have tested this data field on multiple physical devices, and have not encountered this issue. Could you use the "Contact Developer" link to send me information on which device you're using it on, and perhaps a short video of what you're seeing?

Update: looking into adding a notification for each beer.

Thanks, it really is my most important field too! I'd not thought of adding a notification (I don't want it to conflict with the lap sound/vibration), but it looks like there is an API for it, so I'll look into adding it (configurable to enable/disable of course).

Hmm. I'm sorry to hear it stopped working, not sure why that would be. If you use the "Contact Developer" link to send me a message, perhaps we can track down what is happening, and if I need to fix something on my end.

To install, this requires Garmin Express on a Mac or PC, or the Connect IQ app on iOS/Android.

It's super-hidden (thanks Garmin). On your phone, go to Connect IQ app, select "My Device" then "My Data Fields." The "Beers Earned" data field should be in there, select that, and then there should be a "Settings" button on the details page. THAT is where you configure it.

For examples of how to add/configure data fields on your Vivoactive 3, there doesn't seem to be a video for that, but it should be very similar to the Vivoactive 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2z7Tkjfgh0
