Changelog

Version 1.6.52026-09-10T06:50:48.076

Removed the redundant Animate spinner switch. Wrist-flick and backlight switches now control animation directly.

Speed, duration and the animation night pause are hidden when neither supported trigger is enabled. The backlight explanation only appears when backlight spins are on. Existing animation-off preferences remain off.

Verified: all seven platform builds, settings visibility, saved-preference migration and weather regression checks.

Version 1.6.42026-09-10T06:33:05.76

Separate Seconds and Spinner animation sections, with independent Pause seconds at night and Pause animation at night options. Both use a shared night schedule. Existing preferences are preserved; seconds pause is off by default. Paused seconds resume at the current position in the morning.

Version 1.6.32026-09-09T08:07:45.436

Version 1.6.02026-09-09T07:30:57.648

Added Find place to custom weather settings. Search a city or village, check its region and country, then choose the right match. The choice is remembered for future weather updates.

Improved local-name lookup across more languages, including city suffixes and region qualifiers. Automatic lookup now rejects ambiguous and prefix-only matches instead of silently choosing another town. Some names are missing from the lookup service; try the full name or English spelling.

Clarified the Back button hint: wrist flicks that wake the backlight can also trigger its animation option, even with the separate flick trigger off.

Version 1.5.92026-09-09T04:01:41.08

Added optional vibration when your phone reconnects, with its own pattern choice. It starts off; enable Vibrate on reconnect in settings. Disconnect and reconnect each offer Short tap, Two taps, Three quick taps and Long then short. Ignore Quiet Time applies to both alerts.

The custom city hint now says "For example" before the sample locations.

Version 1.5.82026-09-09T03:37:37.766

Custom weather locations now accept USA and UK as country codes and look up local city names in the matching language. Tested NYC, Praha, Ukrainian Київ and Львів, Chinese 北京 and 上海, and Japanese 東京, 大阪 and 京都. The settings hint explains what to try if a name is not found.

Version 1.5.72026-09-09T03:28:39.49

Choose phone location or a custom city for weather. Enter a city and country code, like Prague, CZ. Custom city mode does not request GPS, and changing locations clears the previous reading.

Version 1.5.62026-09-09T03:01:57.989

Reduced spinner drawing work while keeping the same look. Disabled and nighttime animation triggers now unsubscribe, and duplicate weather activity no longer causes extra Bluetooth messages or flash writes.

Removed the extra disconnect-delay setting. Pebble still filters brief connection drops itself. The store description is now easier to scan, with feature bullets.

Bebas Neue and leading zeros remain the defaults. Existing font choices are preserved.

Version 1.5.52026-09-08T21:45:50.953

added an optional white cat on a black background when disconnected, so it’s obvious at a glance. the eyes, pupils and pink ears keep their original look. reconnecting restores the normal colors.

Extra alert delay lets you add 0, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 seconds before both the vibration and white-cat appearance. Pebble already waits about 25 seconds before reporting a disconnect; the watchface can’t shorten that. reconnecting during the extra delay cancels the alert.

turn on White cat when disconnected in settings to use the visual alert. the vibration pattern and Ignore Quiet Time options are still there.

Version 1.5.42026-09-08T21:22:39.671

added an optional phone disconnect alert. choose a short tap, two taps, three quick taps, or long then short. there’s also an Ignore Quiet Time switch if you want the alert at night too.

turn on Vibrate on disconnect in settings. three quick taps is the default pattern. reconnecting stays silent; brief connection drops are filtered by Pebble.

Version 1.5.3

- added 12 spokes. the seconds indicator moves every 5 seconds with this setting.

Version 1.5.22026-09-08T20:04:01.706

fixed the name in settings to yerekhinsky. no changes to the watchface layout or settings.

Version 1.5.12026-09-08T19:27:31.241

Version 1.5.1

- Returned the spinner to the slightly lower forehead placement for better contrast against the black fur. The original cat artwork remains unchanged.
- Moved temperature outward for balanced spacing around the degree symbol, with a safe fit inside round screens. Its height and vertical position are unchanged.
- Simplified settings to the standard Clay form with 15 actual options and Save. Removed the embedded preview and its example-time, animation-test and custom reset controls.
- Seconds mode remains enabled by default: one turn per minute, stepping every 7.5 seconds with eight spokes. Wrist and supported backlight spins coast down, then resume the current seconds position.
- Fast spin remains the default triggered motion, with eight spokes and a three-second duration. Slow loading and 2/3/4-second durations remain available.
- Bebas Neue remains the default numeral font; Teko, Square and Square Cut are also available. Optional weather and the monochrome gray nose are retained.
