Connect IQ app · Live
The Sweliv app, a real app on the watch
An app installed on your watch, next to the Garmin activities, with its own screens: timer, distance, viewers. You start it from the app list of the watch. For watches without a data field (Forerunner 55, Instinct 3 Solar and E), or if you would rather start your sessions from Sweliv.
Before anything else: keep your phone with you, with Garmin Connect open in the background. A Garmin does not talk to Sweliv on its own, cellular models included: the phone is what carries your activity to Sweliv. Without it, the watch keeps everything and sends it as soon as the phone is back.
Getting started
Once. After that you start your sessions from the watch.
- 1
Install the app
From the Connect IQ store, install the Sweliv app on your watch.
- 2
Open Sweliv on your watch
From the app list of the watch. It offers to sign you in, with START.
- 3
Press START
Garmin Connect opens the Sweliv page on your phone: you sign in, it is linked, nothing to type.
- 4
Start your sessions
Pick your sport and press START: the watch streams and shows your viewers while you go.
START links without typing anything. If sign-in fails in the Garmin Connect browser, DOWN shows a code: type it into the Sweliv app, Settings, Connect an app, Garmin, Sweliv app on the watch.
What it does
Its own screens
Timer, distance, pace, heart rate and viewers, on pages you swipe sideways.
All your sports, HYROX included
Running, trail, cycling, swimming, skiing, golf, gym, racket sports with the score, team sports, and HYROX segment by segment.
Charts, map and recap
Your charts during the session, the map with the route you follow, comments, then the recap at the end and My sessions.
Your workout of the day
Your structured workout of the day arrives at the start and guides you step by step, with a vibration at every change.
On which devices
The app runs on nearly every Connect IQ Garmin. What it shows depends on the memory and screen of each one.
Watches
Forerunner, fēnix, epix, Venu, vívoactive, Instinct, Enduro 3, MARQ, Descent, D2 and Approach: the whole app, HYROX included. The map, on the ones that have maps.
The smallest ones
Forerunner 55 and 245, fēnix 6 and 6S, Enduro, Venu Sq, Instinct 3 Solar and Instinct E: the live and your workout of the day, without charts, map, recap or HYROX.
Edge and GPS units
Edge 530 to 1050, Edge Explore 2 and MTB, eTrex Touch, GPSMAP 67 and H1, Montana 700: the whole app, except HYROX.
Questions
Who sees my live?
In the app Options, before the start: Live and Position, each Yes, No or Per my account. Without location, your friends still get your time, distance and heart rate, with no point on the map. The rest is set in the Sweliv app.
Can I turn the charts off?
Yes: Charts, Yes or No, in the Options. The page leaves the scroll, the charts are still measured for the recap.
And on an Edge?
The app runs there as on a watch, with the same screens, the map and the recap. Only HYROX is missing: nobody races a HYROX with a bike computer.
