This watch face is quite unique for providing a global perspective as well as deep customization options. A dynamic world map displays the user location, ISS orbit and sunrise/sunset line. Additionally, each of the 13 data fields can be tailored to your exact needs by combining any of the 50+ datapoints. This is cumbersome but effective once setup.
--- COMMUNICATION WITH DEVELOPPER ---
I'm here to support, please contact me with the "Contact Developer" button. Make sure to state your email else I can't reply! I receive many such emails and it's disheartening not to be able to reply.
--- BUGS? ---
- Some users report it's impossible to uninstall the app, while most users can uninstall without problems. I don't know what causes this issue or how to fix it.
- Many user-requested features have been released. Despite thorough testing, bugs are still possible. The only way to fix them is for users to report bugs by email (contact developer link) or Facebook (https://fb.me/WorldFaceGarmin).
