About

Watchface for outdoor fans. Developed to show all the information I need for my daily adventures. It shows: - Battery status in days with a warning for low level - Do Not Disdurb indicator - Active alarms indicator - Indicator if the phone is disconnected (most likely I've left it home again) - Steps - RIP a.k.a "Recovery In Progress" - Current heart rate* and average heart rate plot for the past 40 min - Day of the week** and date*** - Time**** with disappearing seconds to preserve battery - Weather: Current condition, temperature*****, barometric trend for the last 1 hour, wind speed****** and weather forecast (*******) - Sunrise and sunset * heart rate is updated every 3rd second ** day of the week has Finnish and English abbreviations. Choose your preferred language in the options *** date has formatting options of d.m., mm/dd and dd/mm **** 24 hour "military" time with Finnish HH.mm formatting only. I do not intend to support other formats because the design gets messy, but I've added option for the ":" delimiter if it pleases you. ***** in Celsius only (I do not intend to support Fahrenheit) ****** in meters per second only (though I'm not sure if the weather stations report km/h) ******* weather forecast has a setting how far in the future you want it to be. Default is 1 (or next hour) Designed to preserve battery with most of the data updated only when watch is in the "Power mode" or during minute updates. With Instinct 2X you can press "Set" to refresh the view and get HR updated and seconds running.

What's new

v. 0.0.2: Like a pro I sent the initial app with testing=true, this is now fixed :) v 0.0.3: Added settings for day of the week language and date and time formatting options, updated the icon v 0.0.4: Optimized recurring field updates. It should be smoother and consume less battery now. v 0.0.5: Optimized sunrise / sunset update. v 0.0.6: The "keep alive" time is now configurable. This setting defines how long seconds are kept visible on the screen on a full battery. The actual time depends on the current battery level and will go to 0 as battery deplets. Default value is 2 minutes v 0.0.7: You can now opt-in for heart rate updates in power save mode. This will link heart rate updates to seconds update i.e. if the seconds are running, the heart rate is updated every 3rd second. Thus, it is limited by the previously introduced "keep alive" setting. This is EXPERIMENTAL as there is no guarantee it will work if you set long "keep alive" time. v 0.0.8: Show the number of active alarms if more than one is set. v 0.0.9: Fix sunset time showing sunrise minutes. v 0.0.10: Fixed battery status updating with a delay after using e.g. torch or GPS. v 0.0.11: Fixed battery status updating with a delay when returning from DnD to PDD (Please, Do Disturb). Optimized battery icon updates. v 0.0.12: Changed multiple alarms indicator. Forced sunrise/sunset update to happen every hour. Added setting for heart rate plot sample size. Note that smalle sample size means more counting and more often, i.e. more battery usage. Default is 5 minutes. v 0.0.13: Draw the hear rate plot offscreen to save some battery. v 0.0.14: Made the margins smaller and aligned the texts v 0.0.15: New weather icons v 0.0.16: Added icon for the weather forecast for the next hour. If you want the icon represent the forecast further away in the futere there is a setting for it. Reworked the weather and sunrise/sunset section. v 0.0.17: Hide weather information if no weather is available (e.g. no BT connection). Added more spacing between the icons.
