This past week Garmin not only launched a slew of new devices, but perhaps more importantly – launched availability of the first portions for Connect IQ. Garmin Connect IQ is the application development platform for newer Garmin wearables that enables individuals or companies to develop a number of different application and watch extensions. These extensions allow folks to significantly extend the features and functionality of your newfangled Garmin device.
While the platform is available immediately on the Vivoactive, Fenix3, Epix, and FR920XT – only the FR920XT is already out in the wild. So, for practical purposes, this week’s announcement is applicable only to owners of the FR920XT multisport unit.
