GarmBIOS is a premium, retro-inspired watchface designed for enthusiasts who appreciate the technical aesthetics of classic BIOS and command-line interfaces. Engineered for ultra-high contrast on AMOLED displays (Fenix 8, Epix, MARQ), it blends legendary styling with deep system telemetry.
CORE FEATURES:
Dynamic BIOS Tabs: Cycle through Main, Advanced, Boot, and Exit telemetry pages via Touch & Hold or automatic rotation.
Pro Terminal AOD: A battery-optimized Always-On Display with "Pixel-Shift" burn-in protection and dynamic memory addresses.
Deep Customization: Set your own Custom BIOS Name (8 characters) and choose from classic Cyan, Matrix Green, or Warning Red themes.
Global Intelligence: Automatically detects your system units for Miles/KM, Feet/Meters, and Fahrenheit/Celsius.
Priority Alert System: Real-time BIOS dialogs for Storm Alerts, Rain Warnings, and Critical Battery levels that override the dashboard.
