Managed to get them working
What does the 0.300% mean in the top.left corner of the battery screen?

This information is available from the Connect IQ Store listing for the widget as well as from the links provided by the author in the description there.

You should also not many Connect IQ Widgets, Apps and Data Fields allow for user customization, which can usually be accomplished using Garmin Express (PC + Mac) or Garmin Connect (Android + iOS).

How do you get the what3words app to work? On the iq app it says and shows a pic of a 66/67 with it working?

Works without issue on my GPSMAP 67.

This app or widget does require an active internet connection.

More info at the Connect IQ Store listing.

My figure from top left of my Battery Widget is 0.208% per hour which I believe is the battery discharge rate per hour. The battery charge level is 97% with the estimated time remaining is 19.4 days and last charged time interval is 24 hours. I welcome any comments on my interpretation.

Pressing 'Enter' will cycle through additional pages of information also.

Open the Status Page and press the D-PAD (Left)/(Right) buttons to cycle through installed widgets.

Press (Left) or (Right) to cycle though installed widgets.

Thank you. I did it. But isn't it possible to put it on the main menu page?

[GPSrChive]

No.

Connect IQ Widgets are only accessible from the Status Page, Connect IQ Apps are only accessible from the Connect IQ page, and Connect IQ Data Fields are only accessible via Data Field configuration.

The battery app is a widget and widgets can be accessed by pressing the power button and then using Left or Right key to display installed widget pages.

I'm not entirely sure how good this battery app is. It's saying I've got 70days of charge left, No chance.
