Description

Looks better on the watch! The UV-graph is unrealistic in the picture.

You'll need a API key for OpenWeather (see download instructions after hitting the download button). The API free version is here.

Because of battery saving settings, it takes about an hour before the watch face looks OK on the watch!

Tested in Instinct 2X Tactical only.

Metric only (temp °C, winspeed km/h, rain mm). When I tried to set it the device units (°F or °C), the watch face didn't work anymore. Feel free to copy the watch face and adapt it to imperial units.

Designed to use little power (1 minute refresh rate, might feel laggy when the notification icon disappears slowly, weather refresh rate: once per hour).

Focus on readability of time, date and notifications (large notification icon in subdial overlaying the weather info), and weather info.

On the watch face:

  • Arc around the subdial: battery %
  • Numbers on top:
    • left: steps
    • right: distance (km)
  • Below that, Top line chart: steps % of goal
  • Very bottom chart: precipitation % chance 12 hour forecast
  • Bar left: MoveBar
  • Right from hours: UV index graph next 12 hours forecast (0 to 12)
  • Numbers right of date/day, from top down:
    • (a bit above):
      • phone BT connection icon
      • % battery
      • alarm icon+counter
    • UV index %
    • wind bearing & speed km/h
    • next sun event (sunset/sunrise)
    • rain volume (mm = l/m²)
  • In the circle subdial: temperature, min max (°C)
  • A large notification icon will appear in the subdial when there is a ... notification
