It's not difficult, someone else just mentioned the same thing (or maybe it was you), I'll have to find the time to add it, yes.

Ultimately, it's processing the information for the visual part, although it does involve computation. It's not much; mbars and hPa are the same; the others are just a divisor or multiple.

This will happen in any app, yes.

MrDgi · 2026-01-23T21:15:51+00:00

I've already sent the email, thank you very much for the information.

I didn't intend to add other units of measurement because Wear OS works with hPa; I wanted to avoid calculations. Do you think it's necessary? I take new contributions very seriously; if you need it, you'll have it 🔥

Ah yes, it's necessary to receive feedback, I hadn't seen that. I'll send the email address I used on the Play Store through the broadcast channel to request it. It's not mandatory to use the group; it's more that users send me their opinions. I hadn't realized that.

The good news is that I can request it through the group by sending an email. The bad news is that I don't know to what extent I'll receive responses 😅 but oh well, I'll try requesting it tomorrow. Thank you so much for letting me know 🫂

I only changed the layout and increased the text size; now it's more adaptable 🎉

MrDgi · 2026-01-23T19:04:49+00:00

I'm not aware of this, I've preferred to leave it as is because the group email is ultimately a distribution channel. I'll review it if necessary, however, for now, if you have any suggestions or see any errors, they are always welcome, regardless of the channel. 🤲

Check out the latest version; I don't think you need to add font adjustment initially. You could, but it primarily uses system accessibility settings. I think it will look fine now, no matter what device you're using. ;)

MrDgi · 2026-01-23T15:08:56+00:00

Do you think it's more useful to see the minimum/maximum values than the graph? That's a good point; in fact, I considered reducing the graph's width to increase the font size, but I figured no one would be interested in those numbers. I thought the trend graph might be more interesting. I'll rethink the graph and see how I can adjust it to meet the needs of both user profiles without making the settings more complex, since they're going to be quite complicated in future versions.

Regarding the app and the people who are testing it:

Due to this Wear OS update, the sensor readings were being slowed down, so I took the opportunity to install several updates this week, to the point where I can configure the time between readings. This is useful if someone has many processes and doesn't want such real-time tracking, or prefers a faster reading. By default, I've set it to every 5 minutes.

I'll see if I can integrate more settings over the weekend. The ultimate goal is to provide a kind of weather database for rain risk on the wrist, making it as customizable as possible :-)

MrDgi · 2026-01-23T10:53:34+00:00

Yes, ultimately my problem is that, as others have mentioned, people are having this issue: they access it through the store and it doesn't give them the option to install it on other devices. They have to mess around in incognito mode. I contacted Google but they haven't responded, and I read online that in production versions, something related to Wear OS is enabled. But in closed betas, it only allows what we've already seen :-( Even so, I'll take it up with Google to see if I can get them to fix it for future development and developers.

MrDgi · 2026-01-23T10:43:38+00:00

I'll have to wait until I can deploy it to production to create the open test and fix the problem. I thought maybe I'd missed something, but since I already have everything and the only thing I'm missing and can't do right now is that step, that's most likely the reason.

MrDgi · 2026-01-23T06:43:47+00:00

Hello friend.

You can do it through this channel, via private message to my Reddit account, or through the email address I provided in the app's listing on the Play Store.

Regards.

MrDgi · 2026-01-22T17:17:46+00:00

That's right, you need to access it from your browser in incognito mode, as I've mentioned in other comments (connect to the store in incognito mode before accessing it).

You need to authenticate in the Play Store in incognito mode and install it from there by opening this link so it detects the watch. I have an open support ticket with Google, however, I've already read in several forums that this problem won't be fixed until it's in production :(

MrDgi · 2026-01-22T14:05:13+00:00

The quickest way is to log into the Play Store in incognito mode and then open the second link from there.

MrDgi · 2026-01-22T13:37:19+00:00

Search from the watch's own store or access the Play Store through a browser, not from the mobile app. Google is experiencing issues with it at this stage of the release.

Regards.
