Is it possible to see the time while using connected GPS on the Blaze?

[DocRose]

The connected GPS is a cool feature, but noticed that can't tell the time unless I bail out of the GPS. What am I doing something wrong?

[fudge22 · Accepted solution]

What exercise are you doing? From what I am looking at on my blaze, I can see a screen with a displayed item (heart race, pace, etc) and a pause button, and the overall time. If I tap or slide my finger up or down on the display (above the elapsed time) it switches from pace, to average pace, to calories, to steps, to clock, to miles, to heart rate, and then repeats. So if you want to see the time, all you have to do is swipe until the clock is what appears as the main display on the screen. Personally, I swipe to display the heart rate since that is a good indicator for me as to how hard I am running, etc. 

Unless I completely misunderstood the question, give this a try and hopefully it helps you.

Nope. You read it correctly and I did not think to swipe up and down. Just saw it.  Still getting used to this thing.

Many thanks!

Have you downloaded your manual yet?

Hey Rich no disrespect but if you are tired of "users helping users" answering questions maybe it's time to take a break from the forums.

Who says I'm tired, i would think the first thing a new user would want do is download the manual, or glance through the interactive help site. Ive see the commemt? I did not know there was a manual.
There is a lot to learn with these devices, and these are best in finding out what the tracker and apps can do.
