Large Big Huge Easy to read Simple Time with AOD
· v3.5.9a
About
Absolutely free and fully adjustable on smartphone, simple and clear.
But there is always time for a beer , in that case use paypal.me/reijndert :)
Support for AMOLED Always On ( AOD ) including "pixel shifting" to protect your display. Tell me what you think of it. I tried to create a BIG always on display without hitting the Garmin protective borders.
Easy to read watchface for older people whose short range vision is limited. I prefer white background and black text for best contrast.
Attention:
1) changing to 12h / 24h mode is done using the time settings ON the watch itself.
2) changing to AOD Always On is done on the watch, NOT in the connect-IQ app.
3) if you want to contact me: use 'contact developer'.
Big and huge numbers, highly customizable.
Movebar is implemented to discourage sitting all day long :)
If you like the watch: consider buying me a virtual beer using paypal.me/reijndert or just contact me :)
Shows the most important data while being gentle on battery, like
steps/distance, movebar, digital time, date, heartrate, battery status, alarm indicator and message count.
Most features have settings to suit your needs.
Feel free to comment, I'm always in for good ideas :-)
Have fun.
