Trying to set up my Libre 2 CAN to Garmin Forerunner 265 using set up from Garmin app store but nothing but error messages, anyone help a luddite? Ideally I'd like to run with pace/time/distance and blood glucose showing?

bruder_jakob on Garmin IQ has watch face, data field and widget for glucose monitoring with Libre 2.  I've been using them all for ages, dead easy to set up on my Edge 1030 plus and Epix Gen 2

Libre doesn't do it by default, you need a 3rd party app on your phone (not from app store), it then talks away happily.

I did have this for about 2 months but have been moved back to Dexcom and now can't remember the name.of the app, sorry.

Dexcom does do it natively as there is  Dexcom data screen on the Garmin IQ store.

It worked well but needed about 2 minutes of config before it all worked but was easily done as the guide steps you through it.

Just reread Murdo's post and that does sound like it can be done without a 3rd party app.
