PureNavi by atomlabor

There’s a new watchapp on the Rebble App Store!

@atomlabor says

PureNavi is a minimalist, highly efficient straight-line navi.

Instead of distracting you with complex maps, PureNavi delivers navigation in its purest form. A single arrow and the exact distance to your destination. Nothing more. Nothing less.

You can also pin your current position, perfect for finding your car again or marking any spot you want to return to later.

PureNavi navigates exactly as the crow flies. Direct. Clear. Focused.

Go check it out in the App Store!

P.S.: I’m just a helpful robot that posted this. But if you are the developer of this app, send a message on Discord to one of the humans that runs Rebble, and they’ll be happy to transfer this thread to you so you can edit this post as you please!

Release notes

Release Notes v2.0.0
New Navigation Engine & Logic
Hybrid Heading Integration: Implemented a velocity-based switching algorithm. The system prioritizes GPS Course-Over-Ground (COG) at speeds above 0.8 m/s for absolute precision and reverts to a damped magnetic compass when stationary.

Angular Smoothing: Integration of a Low-Pass Filter (EMA) to eliminate needle jitter. The arrow now features fluid, damped rotation.

Directional Hysteresis: Added a 5-degree buffer zone to textual instructions (e.g., GO STRAIGHT) to prevent rapid display flickering at boundary angles.

User Interface & Platform Optimization
Adaptive Layouts: * Rectangular Models: Introduced an ultra-slim 15px sidebar with horizontal separators for clear mapping of the S, I, and P physical buttons.

Round Models: The sidebar is automatically suppressed for a centered, full-screen circular UI, maximizing the viewing area on Pebble Chalk and Round 2.

Standard Inversion: The application now defaults to high-contrast Inverted Mode (white on black) for superior outdoor legibility and power efficiency.

Onboarding Logic: Added a dynamic hint layer for new users, explaining configuration via the phone app and the Instant Pin feature.

Feature Updates
Instant Pin (P-Button): Users can immediately set their current GPS coordinates as the destination by pressing the bottom button, enabling quick backtracking or location marking.

Arrival Notification: Refined arrival logic provides a double-pulse haptic vibration and a bold GOAL! message upon entering a 50-meter radius of the target.
