Blink
· vv0.3.9
About
Blink delivers a clean interface with a big clock in the center and theme options. The area above the clock shows static information, the area below the clock shows rolling information which is done by showing each information for a certain amount of time.
The static area contains directly above the clock a row with icons. The number above the icon indicates the status. Each status has a value from 0-9. E. g. the battery status of 6 means that the device has more than 60 % battery capacity. The next number shows the number of notifications (in maximum 9). The number as well as the icon vanishes if the phone is not connected (setting automatic). The next number shows the number of set alarms (also vanishes if no alarm is set on setting mode automatic). The next number shows the number of inactive quarters (inactivity alarm). This info also vanishes if no inactivity is reported (setting mode automatic). The vanishing shall keep the user interface clean. The most right number will show the current heart reate.
The blinking area will contain three rows: the first one will hold icons which won't blink but are static. For example step icon, floors icon, calories icon and so on. The second row will contain an indicator below the icon which information is currently visible. The third row is flashing and will toggle through the information (steps, calories, floors, intensity minutes, distance, moon phase and sun events). The blinking can optionally been set in the watchface settings (note that the faster you flash the more power is needed).
Below in the bottom line the min heartrate and the min average heart rate will be shown static.
Furthermore there is an optional power saving mode: start blinking on a wrist turn and stop it after an adjustable amount of time. This ensures e. g. that blinking is off during sleep which saves power. During the blinking stop you can choose what the watch shall show. Introduced newly a super low power mode. After 1-2 hours after entering low power mode the watchface enters a super low power mode which shows only the clock. A wrist turn or unload the watchface will recover the watchface.

What's working:
- clock
- date
- battery, notification, alarm, inactivity and heartrate information
- steps, floors, calories, and intensity minutes with goal
- blinking configuration
- user can select whether a static info shall be always shown or not. Furthermore there is an automatic mode
- user can select what to show in the blinking area
- moon phase (a plus or minus shows whether the moon is increasing or decreasing. A percentage value indicates how full the moon is currently. The value is updates on hourly basis)
- distance
- min heartrates
- sunset and sunrise
- seconds indicator
- coloring through user
- color for icons if a special state is reached (already implemented: if activity goal is reached or battery is below 25 % or inactivity greater than 2 hours or moon around a moon event)
- user can select to have a weekly or daily goal for intensity minutes
- 12/24 hours
- battery consumption (left blink field shows when battery was charged last time in days and how long battery will last in daysassuming the current average, right field shows average battery consumption per hour for this charge)
What's shown in the static area:
battery, notifications, alarms, inactivity, current heartrate (user can influence what to show via settings)
in the bottom line: min heartrate and nin average heartrate (in the format "min HR:min average HR")
What's shown in the blinking area:
steps, floors, intensity minutes, calories, distance, sunevents, moonphase, battery consumption, countdown (not implemented yet) - user can select what to show
