Orbit
· v1.2.0
About
A digital watch face where the data you choose orbits a large central time.
Place any of 22 metrics at 8 clock positions, and customize the background
(black or white), accent color, digital font, 2nd time zone and more —
an at-a-glance dial that's truly yours.
Center
- Time (12/24h, seconds, zero-pad, optional digital-clock font)
- Date (9 formats, plus "Auto" by device language)
8 clock positions (12, 1-2, 3, ... 10-11 o'clock)
Setting names match on-screen positions. Switch off any position and the orbit
dots fill the gap, keeping the design clean with fewer fields.
22 metrics to choose from
Heart rate, Body Battery, Steps, Weather (icon + temp), Battery, Calories,
Notifications, Floors, Stress, Distance, Intensity minutes, Pulse Ox, Altitude,
Pressure, Bluetooth, Week number, Battery days, Alarm, Do Not Disturb,
Moon phase, 2nd time zone, Sleep Score (supported watches only - see below).
Customize
- Background theme (black / white) — icons recolor for a light background
- Data text size (normal / large / extra large)
- Accent color for the time (10 colors) / plain-values mode
- Optional digital-clock font
- Date/time/temperature units, seconds, zero-pad, low-power seconds hiding
- 2nd time-zone offset
84 round devices
vivoactive 4s/4/5/6, venu, fenix 6/7/8, Forerunner, epix, enduro, descent,
MARQ and more. Scales to each screen; AMOLED gets a burn-in-safe always-on
layout. English/Japanese follow the device language automatically.
— About Sleep Score (please check before installing) —
Sleep Score is the one metric that can only be read on newer watches
(Connect IQ 6.0.2 and later). Please check which list your watch is in.
Works on:
fenix 8 series, fenix E, Enduro 3, Forerunner 570, Forerunner 970,
Instinct 3 AMOLED, Instinct Crossover AMOLED, Venu 4, vivoactive 6
Not available (shows "--"):
Venu 3 / 3S, Venu 2 series, Venu, vivoactive 4 / 4S / 5,
fenix 6 / 7 series, epix (Gen 2), MARQ series,
Forerunner 165 / 245 / 255 / 265 / 745 / 945 / 955 / 965, Forerunner 70 / 170,
Descent, Approach S50 / S70 and others
Your watch may well track a sleep score itself and show it in the Sleep glance or
in Garmin Connect, yet still not pass that value to watch faces — that is a
platform limitation, not a bug in Orbit. If a future firmware update opens it up,
the score will simply start appearing. Every other metric works on every model.
— Device support —
Orbit supports many round devices, but only some are verified on real hardware
by the developer. If anything looks off on your device, please let me know via
a review or contact — I'll do my best to fix it.
What's new
- Added "Sleep Score" as a data field (Settings - pick it for any position).
Note: it shows a value only on newer devices that expose this metric to watch
faces (fenix 8 series, fenix E, Enduro 3, Forerunner 570/970, Instinct 3
AMOLED, Venu 4, vivoactive 6 and similar). Other devices show "--".
- This required one additional permission, used only to display the score -
nothing is sent anywhere.
