You are searching for a download? Click here (a link will be shown here soon!) to download latest available version of the app.

In case you lost the link to the paypal button to pay your fee, here it is. ;)

Yes, the app will cost small money - is subject to a fee. Anyway you will get a full featured license for at least one day free of charge – so give it a try.

Note: In case you’ve still paid your fee, it remains valid! No need to do anything. :)

Be aware that it's a hard work to develop such an app and a fee is a kind of 'thank you' for hundreds of hours the developer spend.

FAQ

Have you seen the FAQ-Tab? More than often your question will be answered after reading the FAQs. ;)

The Panels

The BigPanel at the top provides the current weather or the date in nearly any language. It's a dynamic and fully configurable content layer. The content either changes (preconfigured) every 60 secs or by accelerator control. In later case a simple turn of your wrist will switch to the next available content.

Note: A detailed usage documentation of the accelerator control can be found in the section "InfoPanel Configuration" - press the corresponding "howto" button.

Near to the wrack at the bottom the bluetooth connection state icon and left hand side the battery charging level is shown.

The Settings

A settings dialog is provided in the pebble app. It offers a brunch of settings - nearly everything is configurable.

In particular the weather configuration should be taken into account.

You have to select a fixed weather location because it's a fallback in case GPS can't locate you. To ease the configuration of your fixed location you can search either per name token or by GPS a weather station near to you.

Per default the GPS location is used to show an individual weather. This can be disabled by enabling "Only fix location" in the settings. As a result only the configured fixed location is shown - your GPS location isn't used any more.

Note: You will find GPS options. Normally there is no need to change the options! Only in case your GPS can't reliable find your location, you can adapt the properties "accuracy", "timeout" and "cache time" of your GPS device appropriate.
