MyPebbleFaces will be closing down on the 1st of June.
Tide and Weather Watch
Description
This is a Tide and Weather Watch. The tidal information only works in the USA. It requires the app named "httPebble" (iOS) or "Pebble Connect" (Android) to access tide and weather information.
The closest tide monitoring and weather stations are selected by GPS, and updated periodically.
This version (1.4, 11/21/2013) works with Pebble firmware 1.13.
Big Watch
Description
I just wanted to see BIG NUMBERS in my watch face so I would not have to squint to tell the time.
Both 12- and 24-hour formats are supported, and battery time is optimized since the screen is only updated once every minute.
This watchface is for Pebble OS 2 only. Customizable settings include background color, vibrations, connection, battery indicator.
Local Scape
Description
Local Scape is a watchface that displays images from where you are. It requires httPebble or Pebble Connect to communicate with the Internet.
Your location is retrieved from your smart phone GPS. This location is then used to pull random images near your location from public Flickr galleries. These images are displayed on your Pebble at periodic intervals.
Customizable settings include the interval time, date format, vibration alerts, and whether you wish to see images appear progressively. The shortest refresh interval will use your watch battery more. To customize this watch, go to http://SetPebble.com
Sometimes the images are hard to understand due to the small black-and-white Pebble display - so consider it a challenge if you can identify where the photo was taken!
The White House image was one of the first images that appeared after I developed this app (guess what city I was visiting).
This app is experimental, and I don't know how scalable it is because of the server image-processing load. It also has heavy reliance on httPebble, which experiences timeouts and disconnects. Releasing this app is a bit risky - I hope my server can handle the traffic. Apologies in advance if the server is overwhelmed.
Thanks for Greg Dolecki for the app name.
Bigger Watch
Description
Another try at a big number watch, this time with numbers loosely based on a stencil font. Only updates once a minute to maximize battery life.
Custom settings include screen background, date format, Bluetooth connectivity, battery usage, and vibrations.
Upright
Description
The time rotates to always remain upright based on the watch orientation.
The screen background, battery indicator, connection indicator, and vibration are customizable.
Unfortunately the accelerometer drains the battery a bit faster, but it sure is cool to see the watchface stay upright.
Bot Buddy
Description
This app was suggested by my 11-year-old son, who wanted a tamagotchi-style robot. I created a sort of body physics engine and then a scripting language to animate the body parts.
The robot will animate every minute, or when the watch is tapped or shaken in any direction. There are about 40 animations (so far!).
Custom settings include screen background, date format, vibration alerts, and more. Settings can be customized through http://SetPebble.com or the new Pebble 2.0 configuration feature.
Digital Watch
Description
This watch is an homage to the LED/LCD digital watches of 40 years ago. Numbers and sometimes characters were displayed based on a set series of bars.
The colons between the hours and minutes blink every second (just like in the old watches!). And the numbers are especially big so they can be seen at a glance.
There is a custom setting for inverting the screen, date format, battery indicator, connectivity, and vibrations.
