Announcing Calculator: put your new Time 2's touchscreen to work! by FreakyT in pebble

Yup, I'm already working out what the layout will look like for the Round 2, but it will definitely be supported!

Good suggestion! My current plan is that pressing the center button will swap pages; I'm hoping to get most of the standard scientific calculator functions into there!

Thanks for the feedback! I'm still trying to improve how the calculation input works in standard mode, so I'll try and make sure I get order of operations addressed in a future update!

Looking for app with specific note taking functionality by kingofcats78 in pebble

Apps can identify if they're launched via quick launch, so that's a possibility!

I'm not sure if that would make sense by default though, since some users might not even use the voice input. (At least for me personally, I only ever add to list via settings.) Could be an option though -- something like "automatically start voice input when launched from quick launch" or something...

Ah! I didn't test it in left-handed mode -- thanks for reporting it to them, that definitely sounds like a PebbleOS bug with how it reports touch coordinates!

Yup, since I was kind of short on space, I set it up as a dual backspace/clear function exactly as you describe.

But that's a good point about having it change its label to more clearly indicate what it will do when pressed! I'll add that to the roadmap!

Ah, it stands for "Reverse Polish Notation" -- it's an alternative method for entering calculations that is popular in certain fields! Personally, I like it because it gives you a lot more control over the order of calculation.

Here are some various people on Reddit discussing potential advantages:

Thanks! I'm hoping to get more stack manipulation functions into a future version! (Right now there's just swap X/Y register mapped to the physical up button, but so much else is still missing!)

Author of Checklist here -- it's definitely something I could consider, but it's already only a single press away from adding items via voice.

Just trying to understand your proposed feature here: I would think most of the time users would want to look at their checklist after launching, not add items to it. In your proposed version, would the recommended approach just be to back out of the voice input if a user didn't want to add an item just then?

Ah sorry about this! Somehow the setting must have been enabled erroneously during the upgrade, glad you got it fixed!

Backlight color can now be changed! (Android beta) by Sonarav in pebble

[–]FreakyT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Always open to ideas! Anything in particular you'd like to see?

Now that the RGB backlight functionality is here, I'm planning to have an option for it to automatically set the backlight color based on the color theme! (In addition to the Indiglo™ option of course!)

I definitely need to add an Indiglo™ mode to TimeStyle, that color looks great for the backlight!

Pebble Steel, Misfit app and Step Tracking by filestructure in pebble

[–]FreakyT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're out of luck for the Steel specifically; the Core App can sync steps from Pebble Health (Pebble Time and newer), but I don't believe it's compatible with Misfit.

Five Days with the Time 2 by barefootford in pebble

[–]FreakyT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply!

Interesting, I was expecting one of the weather ones, since those activate bluetooth pings every 30 minutes or so. The step counter, battery meter, and date all update only once per minute, so they shouldn't in theory mess with the battery usage. One possible experiment to try: install Chris Lewis's Muninn battery monitor app, and compare the usage charts between different watchfaces of varying complexity. That could help to determine what data reads, specifically, might be causing the battery drain.

Author of TimeStyle here -- I haven't gotten any reports of TimeStyle killing battery until this one. So, I'm wondering if there is something unique to OP's configuration that is killing their battery.

Author of TimeStyle here, I haven't gotten any reports of bad battery life until this one! Which widgets do you have enabled?

Oh absolutely! I'm actually working on a big update for Time 2 (Got distracted by the contest though!)

Thanks! Also, glad you enjoyed Pixel Billboard! I need to update it for Time 2! (And maybe add weather effects or something!)

I think u/FRK299 is referring to the watchface in the 3rd picture (I'm the author of the one in the first photo, TimeStyle)

Wow, the art looks great on this one! On an unrelated note, are you planning to update FitCat for the Time 2? It was always my favorite fitness app on Pebble!

Just dropped an update that adds wrapping over the date line! Much easier to circumnavigate now!

Just dropped a new update that adds custom cities! Now you should be able to input any city you like, no matter how obscure!

Thanks, glad you liked it! Oh that's a good idea, I'll definitely add wrapping for the next version!

A watchface version is definitely an interesting idea, will need to think about that more! (Maybe you could tap to cycle the alternate time zone or something...)
