Set up Plink in minutes

You need an iPhone with iOS 18 or later, ActiveLook Engo 2 glasses, a compatible Garmin Edge and the free Plink data field from Garmin Connect IQ.

The iPhone acts as a powerful bridge between your Garmin Edge and smart glasses. It provides a more reliable BLE connection, enables efficient change-only rendering and makes HUD controls available through Apple Shortcuts and Siri.

Yes. You can create pages from built-in layouts, choose a data field for each slot, preview the layout and reorder or delete pages. Plink currently supports around 40 live and derived fields.

Yes. Plink is beta software. The core telemetry and HUD pipeline works, while connection management, broader device support and several edge cases are still being improved.

No. Plink’s glasses reconnection flow is designed to work while the iPhone is locked in your pocket by reconnecting directly to the previously known device.

Plink currently supports ActiveLook ENGO 2. Support for additional display geometries and glasses models is planned.

Yes, through Apple Shortcuts or Siri. The glasses gesture currently advances to the next page only because the gesture event does not provide a direction.

Live telemetry fields expire when their source goes silent. Plink intentionally removes stale values instead of leaving an old reading frozen on the HUD.

Plink automatically retries the known glasses connection with a backoff schedule. Keep the glasses powered on and in range; the direct reconnect is designed to complete even while the phone is locked.

Check that the activity and its data source are still active. If telemetry stops arriving, Plink expires live values such as power, heart rate, cadence and speed so outdated data is not displayed.

Confirm that your Edge model is supported, that the public Plink data field is installed from Connect IQ and that the Edge is already connected to Garmin Connect on the iPhone.
