A new innovative firmware written from the ground up for the watchy and now also yatchy
Now getting a bit rusty🦀
Demo
This demo was heavily compressed, so it looks like it looks. The speed is also messed up because of missing frames
demo_1.mp4
- Easy to install demo (no compiling!)
- Modular and configurable, a lot - if you disable a thing, it's not being compiled, it's like it was never there
- A lot of watchfaces
- Language Support: No perf/binary compromise: fully-validated EN/PL + less-tested DE/SK
- Full weather info via open meteo api in charts, 16 day forecast + On watchface
- Calendar show of events, their time and description from an ICS file (So any calendar should sync)
- Alarms
- Basically unlimited ammount of them
- Quick alarms setting
- Pomodoro timer
- A book reader
- With pages changable by moving your hand
- Support for many books
- Interactive watchface by using watchface modules (Apps which are shown on the watchface directly).
- Bitcoin module, with a "Big" mode to be truly a "bitclock"
- A simple network module
- A small conway game of life module
- Image gallery module
- Calendar module, to view the nearest event
- Book module, to view the book text all the time
- Alarm module, to see when the next alarm rings
- Api module, to send button presses over the network (experimental)
- Debug menus to check on things on the fly (for example, a 3D demo of the accelerometer axis, to check if it works)
- Battery life features:
- Configurable wake up every x minutes at night, at default it's between 23-06 every 45 minutes
- A menu to manually, or after certain battery percantage drop enable these features:
- Disable wake up - The watch will sleep until you press a button, this extremely improves battery life
- Disable all vibrations - The vibration motor is heavy for the battery
- A "vault" which allows to save encrypted images to the watchy and view them if provided the correct PIN. All generated dynamically via a script. Uses AES128 cbc/ecb. Example use is a backup phone book, bitcoin key backup in the form of a QR code
- Games / Fun
- Blockchy, a tetris like game
- Snake (Written in rust!)
- Pong game
- Conway game of life
- Small video player
- Experimental heart rate monitor (Just a proof of concept, works best on Yatchy)
- Reset cause shower. If your battery will be the cause of a reset, you will be informed about it on boot.
I integrated https://github.com/risinek/esp32-wifi-penetration-tool to this firmware as a service. I won't provide support for it or give any advice how to use it. Use for your own responsibility, don't do illegall stuff. Seriously.https://github.com/ckcr4lyf/EvilAppleJuice-ESP32 too. the same story as above.Those 2 options were removed because I updated the build system and didn't bother to make it work with it, with some cmake you should be able to easily re-add those features, I you can't use cmake, then you shouldn't probably use either of those features anyway
This list is outdated ;)
It doesn't use the watchy sub-class but it uses the same libraries. With that in mind, those are further diffrences from other firmwares: Every small text is a reason why I was mad enough to rewrite everything myself...
- Welcome to contributions!
- It's splitted into files and folders In my opinion a file that has 5k lines is heresy
- It's function - not object based for the reason above and to make it easier for beginners to use
- It uses free rtos tasks where needed
- All resources like images, fonts, books are converted into variables dynamically via scripts. Editing images, changing font spacing is just one click. I can't believe I was the first to make this that way
- The Ui is dynamically written. There are functions to do it eassly. Adding a new menu is just a few lines for exampleIt's not just a collection of drawBitmap
- It has a "manager" and design for various apps to run eassly
- Has logs via serial. They can be disabled that they don't get compiled with changing one define - and the code doesn't look bad because it's a macro. Amazing Yea, this is a feature compared to other ones I have looked at
- Uses libraries instead of pure calls to NTP or open weather
- Many configurable values via defines in config.h
- Many debugging tools in config.h
- Most UI is rendered only when needed / values it's showing changed. Good for battery life
- Proper variable naming and camelCase everywhere
- LittleFS is used instead of NVS. Which means better code, logs in file system. Resources not uploaded on every program change. Awesome
- Various tasks which speed up the debugging / development process (
resources/tools/other/tasks)
Supported devices:
- Yatchy
- Watchy 2.0
- Watchy 3.0 thanks to the community :)
- Watchy 1.0, 1.5 too but less used, less tested
Don't try anything by yourself without the wiki, you will probably fail.

For a small coffe I can manage your firmware and provide you personalised binaries, if you can't compile it yourself, even add some features for you

Demo of version 0.4
This 3> minute demo was heavily compressed, so it looks like it looks. The speed is also messed up because of missing frames
- Can in a hoodie - Many awesome graphics, the logo
- GuruSR - I used some of his awesome libraries and looked at the code for how the watchy hardware should be handled. Also answered a few questions on discord. Thanks!
- Prokuon - I really liked the design of this watchface and almost coppied it. Thanks! - well the code is completly diffrent
- Jason2866 - Help with solving platformio hackery
- C4nn0n from discord - Testing a lot for the watchy v3 and beyond
- invpt (slabeb on discord) - Huge thanks for pointing out the direction for a potential fix for screen ghosting, I easily have spend 2 weeks on it ;o
and many other contributors, whom you can see on the panel on the right
Thanks!
