Description

IT LOOKS LIKE A WATCH BECAUSE IT IS ONE. A smartwatch face does not have to look like a phone. Just a Watch keeps what a good watch dial has always had - the time, large and clear, and a minute track of sixty ticks around the edge - and leaves the rest out. The ticks do one quiet job: they light up, clockwise from twelve, as you walk toward your daily step goal. No step count. No percentage. When the goal is met, every tick turns gold, and that is the end of it. It never laps, never asks for more. Want seconds? The minute track does that too: one bright tick sweeps round it, like a seconds hand. THE FACE - The time, oversized in Jost Light, a clean geometric numeral: hours over minutes, or on one line - Minutes a step softer than the hour, so the face reads in one glance - A 60-tick minute track, longer ticks at every five, lighting clockwise toward your daily step goal - progress you can feel, with no number to chase - All sixty ticks light, and turn gold, only when the goal is met - True-black background - on AMOLED watches, black pixels draw no power SECONDS, IF YOU WANT THEM - Off by default - On the dial: one bright tick travels the minute track - Digits: small and quiet, beside the minutes or under the one-line time MAKE IT YOURS - WITHOUT MAKING IT BUSY - Layout: stacked or one line - Time colour: warm white, white, stone, or the dial's colour - Dial colour: sage, sand, sky, rose, lavender or stone - Softer minutes, gold at goal and the steps dial itself can each be switched off - Every setting can be changed on the watch itself, no phone needed, or in the Connect IQ app BUILT FOR THE HARDWARE - On AMOLED watches with always-on display, the low-power screen shows only the time, dim and small, drifting a few pixels each minute to protect the display. At most it lights under 4% of the screen, against Garmin's 10% limit - On MIP watches the whole face stays up; seconds on the dial repaint only the two ticks that changed, so they stay cheap - MIP screens get their own versions of each colour, so sage stays green instead of turning grey - Smooth, anti-aliased numerals drawn for every screen size, not scaled, from 218 to 454 pixels SUPPORT JUST A WATCH Just a Watch is free. No ads, no trial, no locked "pro" tier, and nothing leaves your watch - it has no permissions at all. If it earns a place on your wrist and you would like to leave something, there is a tip jar at https://paypal.me/sendhere9 - entirely optional, and it unlocks nothing, because there is nothing to unlock. A rating or a short review helps just as much. Either way: go for a walk. The dial will light itself.
