So for the PineTime the most popular firmware is https://infinitime.io/ and by default you get
- Watchfaces for telling the time
- Steps (displays the number of steps of the day and the daily goal)
- Heart rate (controls the heart rate sensor and display current heartbeat)
- Music (control the playback of the music on your phone)
and the PineTime is relatively slick, large bezel but frequently people told me, surprised if they knew me, they though I had an Apple watch, which was a brilliant moment to open up the discussion about open source, free software, open hardware.
Meanwhile Watchy has e-ink and the 3D printed frame is very bulky. It’s definitely a lot more noticeable and I received few compliments for it. By default its firmware is https://github.com/sqfmi/Watchy and…
- time (+ weather if connected to network, not mobile phone, via WiFi not BT)
- Steps
… and that’s about it. Honestly the Watchy ecosystem is a lot less lively than InfiniTime. Sure you get some different watchfaces but that’s about it in terms of popular customization AFAICT. Basically I’d only recommend it if you only want a watch for time and if you are adamant about e-ink.
