The document discusses building an app for a real Garmin device rather than the simulator. It instructs the user to disconnect their Garmin device from their computer and find the app from the list of programs on the device to run it. It also previews how the sample app looks and functions in the square watch simulator, including displaying a two-item menu when the menu button is clicked.

If you don’t see your device type listed, right-click on
your project in Project Explorer, choose Properties, and select Connect IQ. This will open up the Project Details options you saw earlier in “Create a New Connect IQ Project” on page 17 where you can select additional target platforms.
Disconnect your Garmin device from your computer (if you’re on a
Mac, you should eject the drive before you unplug it), and go to the list of programs on your device. Find your app (in this case, MyFirstApp), and run it.
Exploring the App
Let’s take a look at this sample app. If you ran it in the simulator, it will look and work great. Figure 3-4 shows how it looks in the square watch simulator. You can click the menu button (third icon from the left in the image) and it will pop up a two-item menu.
