Please consider leaving a review or sending me feedback directly, it really helps the development! Pitlane turns your watch into a racing-dash instrument cluster. A full-perimeter shift-light tachometer wraps the rim in forty-four chunky segments. They climb as your day builds, glowing in your accent colour while you are on track. They flash red the moment you fall behind, just like a shift light. Dead-centre sit the hero digits, striped with a fine diagonal hatch and baked into a custom typeface, so the time reads like a real dash. The digits are evenly spaced, so the clock holds its place instead of drifting as the minutes change, and it is sized for your watch rather than the nearest size. Below them, two ghost seven-segment panels glow with your live numbers. An E-to-F fuel gauge tracks a metric of your choosing: amber while there is plenty in the tank, red as it drops into the reserve, with a small monochrome icon naming what it reads. It all sits on a true-black carbon ground, so the lit segments and readouts pop and nothing else gets in the way. The whole dashboard is yours to configure, from your phone or from your wrist. Press and hold the watch face to open the settings on the watch itself, with no phone needed. Point the tachometer at any of twenty-nine readouts: steps, floors, distance and active minutes, but also heart rate, Body Battery, SpO2, sleep score and the weather. Read it as a fixed instrument scale with an honest numbered dial, or as a percent-of-goal counter, against your watch's goals or your own. The E-to-F gauge takes thirty readouts. Health and fitness: battery, Body Battery, stress, HR and heart-rate zone, resting heart rate, SpO2, respiration, sleep score and VO2 max. Activity and training: steps, floors, distance, active minutes, weekly intensity, the move bar and calories. Weather and environment: temperature, feels-like, humidity, UV index, pressure, elevation, sunrise and sunset. The two ghost panels draw on a wider catalogue again, adding recovery time, precipitation, wind, dew point, solar intensity, ascent and descent, and goal remainders. Each has its own crisp on-device icon, or switch a panel off for a cleaner cluster and the rest re-space to fill the gap. The date can be turned off on the dial too, if you would rather have the space. Show the number of unread notifications on the dial, and choose whether the Bluetooth cue means connected or disconnected. Colour is a single decision or a fine one. Pick a livery and the whole cluster retints at once, or choose an accent scheme and set the hero clock yourself from forty colours, neon and metallic among them. The low-fuel red, the reserve amber and the safety cues stay true through all of it, the way a real instrument would. The always-on display is the dash, dimmed and stripped for burn-in safety, not a different watch face. It keeps the same hatched hero time and the same E-to-F bar, now with a battery symbol so the bar is unmistakable. Choose what it carries, the date, the battery, your status cues, set the clock size, and give it its own colour if you want one. Your Body Battery and heart-rate history feed the on-device readouts; your Garmin complication data drives the health readouts (VO2 max, recovery time and sleep score); your profile powers the active-calories estimate; and your location is used only for sunrise and sunset. Nothing ever leaves the watch.

What's new

V1.4.0 - New: livery presets — one pick sets the whole colour scheme. New: 40 colours for the clock, on the dial and on the always-on display. New: change the face from your wrist, no phone needed. New: always-on display options — choose what shows, how big, and its colour. New: battery symbol on the always-on display, so the bar is unmistakable. New: the gauge now reads 30 metrics, and the tachometer 29, including sleep score, SpO2 and VO2 max. New: set your own goal for the tachometer and the fuel gauge. New: notification count on the dial. New: the date can be turned off on the dial. Improved: the clock no longer shifts as the time changes. Improved: the clock is sized for your watch, not the nearest size. Improved: switch off a readout and the others re-space to fill the gap. V1.2.0 - Please note: this update needs TWO NEW PERMISSIONS, which you must accept when you update — your Garmin complication data (for sleep score, VO2 max and recovery time) and your location (for sunrise and sunset). As always, nothing leaves your watch. A much wider choice for the two LCD readouts, plus a live Garmin health-data feed. New readouts you can now drop into either cluster: resting heart rate, heart-rate zone, active calories (estimate), steps to goal, floors to goal, intensity to goal, weekly intensity, move bar, solar intensity, VO2 max for running and cycling, recovery time, and sunrise and sunset — plus sleep score on supported devices. Every readout has its own crisp on-device icon. V1.1.0 - Five new live-weather readouts you can drop into either LCD cluster — Feels Like, Humidity, Precipitation, Wind and UV Index — each with its own crisp icon. Settings menus are now localised in more languages, including Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean. V1.0.0 - First public release. A racing-dash instrument cluster for AMOLED: a full-perimeter shift-light tachometer that revs on your steps, active minutes, floors, calories or distance and reds out when you fall behind, hatched hero digits in a custom-baked typeface, twin seven-segment LCD readouts drawn from a full metric catalogue, an E-to-F fuel gauge that tracks the metric you choose and reds out when it runs low, and a bottom row of racing sectors charting your Body Battery over the last two hours. Three accent schemes, unit-aware readouts (kilometres or miles, Celsius or Fahrenheit, 12 or 24-hour), a burn-in-safe always-on with three detail levels, and no ticking seconds. One on-device permission, nothing leaves the watch.
