Here is a summary of the changes and addition of InfiniTime 1.14:

  • Reduced memory footprint in flash memory: the analog watch face draws the background at runtime instead of using a pre-defined background picture and we moved the font for the navigation app to the external memory.
  • Improved raise-to-wake algorithm and new lower-to-sleep functionality
  • New weather service and new setting to select °C/°F
  • The build system now allows to easily select which user applications and watch faces are built into the firmware
  • Replace the node.js tool that convert the images (lv_img_conv) by a custom re-implementation in Python
  • InfiniLink, the iOS companion app has a new maintainer!
 

Since latest firmware update, Pinetime battery life is outstanding.

I use it daily, mostly connected to GadgetBridge to get messages (my phone vibrations are not very strong. I also use it at night to walk in my house without turning lights on.

Notice that Wake Up is not set at all, no wake up. This also keep your display off while walking/moving.

This game is so impregnated in my mind that I hear the music just as watching a screenshot. It's crazy.

Kudo to the team to keep this wonderful game up for the next decades.

Time. This is a very old project. Things have moved slowly, but with time, things starts to actually work well.

This is a perfect example of what FOSS can do compared to money-oriented development.
