Welcome! In front of me I have Garmin Venue 3S and I'm gonna show you how to
0:05
set image as a watch face on this watch. Basically if you want to use your own
0:09
image or a picture as a watch face. Before we start if you want to set an image as a watch face on this watch your
0:19
watch needs to be paired with a phone via the Garmin Connect application. Once
0:24
the devices are paired together we can continue and now we need to download and
0:28
install the Connect IQ Store application on the phone that is paired
0:32
with our watch. So make sure you have the internet connection and Bluetooth
0:37
enabled then open the App Store on the phone that is paired with your watch. I'm
0:43
using the Google Play Store because I'm using Android device the phone but if
0:47
you're using iPhone you can always open the App Store on the iPhone and you will
0:51
find this application in there. So once you open the App Store tap on search and
0:55
type in Connect IQ Store and then tap on search button of course and you
1:03
should see this application on the list Connect IQ Store by Garmin with this
1:06
icon. Once you find this app tap on the install button to download and install
1:10
it. And after the application is done installing you should see the open
1:17
button you can tap on it to open the app. In the Connect IQ application tap on
1:23
welcome then tap on continue or switch accounts if you want to use a different
1:30
account. I'm gonna continue with this one then check the box tap next. Allow the
1:39
permission and after a couple of seconds the IQ Store page should load. Now find
1:49
the face it option and tap on it the icon right here and once you find it
1:54
you should see the screen like this and here we basically can create a custom
2:00
watch face. To do it tap on the plus button select the camera or gallery. If
2:06
you select the camera option it will open the camera app you can take a photo
2:10
with your phone and use it as a watch face. If you select the gallery option it will open the file manager and you can select the picture from your phone. I'm
2:18
gonna use the gallery option find the picture for example this one tap on it
2:24
to select it and once you select the picture you will need to basically crop
2:28
the image because the whole picture won't fit on the watch face so you need
2:32
to select the part of the picture as a watch face and whatever is gonna be in this highlighted area it's gonna be on our watch face. Once you position the
2:40
picture you you want it to be select the type of the clock and once
2:48
you select the type of the clock you can tap on the bucket right here the paint
2:55
bucket to change the color of the accents then you can tap on the time I
3:03
guess to select the type of the clock or the font of the clock and once you're
3:10
done customizing your watch face tap on done name it and tap on save and here we
3:17
have our watch face and if you want to apply it to your watch you need to tap
3:21
on the install button then tap on OK and wait until it's done installing
3:32
Once it's done installing it will be applied on your watch and then you can
3:37
close the app and that's how you set an image as a watch face on this watch
