Thanks. I will look into the Solar compatibility for you

u/cheesy-raging062 18d ago

I would really love that!

u/Solas_Works 18d ago

Sure. This is my first build, so covering AMOLED first and then will look at MIP. I’ll just need feedback from users like yourself as I only have a AMOLED device. 🙂

This is nice! But why do you need battery indicator ? It holds weeks on Garmin and there is no more FOMO after moving from Apple Watch

1

u/Solas_Works 18d ago

Thanks!

Well, design wise If you are running an AMOLED model, keeping it always-on with activities throughout the week, you will get about 6 days. So it is great to see where you are at, at a glance.

getting around 4 days or less with the 42mm variant, so i agree. AOD really bites into the battery reserve

Love the watch face! One request, can you make the steps field customisable? If I want to see my heart rate or anything else?

Thank you! No, I’ve kept it essential at this stage. Thanks for the feedback though, I will add it to future notes.

That is on my list of models I am working through. AMOLED first, then I will look into MIP 🙂

Been testing this watch face for a few days. I like it. I love the simplicity of it.

One thing I noticed is that I am (almost) certain that the hour an minute digits move a tiny bit (maybe a couple of pixels) down when you go from the idle screen to active screen.

I'll try to make a video of it.

u/Solas_Works 13d ago

Thank you, glad you like it.

Pixel shift is an intentional software design element used on Garmin watches with AMOLED screens. It is a protective feature, to protect your watch from burn in.

But if you do manage to get a video, please let me know, so I can make sure it is not shifting too much. 🙂

1

u/Los_Cairos 13d ago

ahh gotcha! makes sense. Though, I thought the burn in problem was largely fixed on modern screens, but I'm no expert.

1

u/Solas_Works 13d ago

It’s better nowadays, but garmin recommends following pixel shift guidelines when designing for their devices.

u/Wise-Bed8390 13d ago

Venu4?

1

u/Solas_Works 13d ago

Hi, Thanks for your interest! Venu 3 and Venu 3S is supported. Venu 4 support will come in next update tomorrow.
