ARCS puts colour at the edge: five progress arcs on the rim, a giant white time, a grid of six data cells with coloured icons and two side cells, every metric in its own colour — free for 7 days, then a one-time license key (USD 3.99). If you like it, a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review helps a small developer a lot.
The five arcs are real progress: steps towards your goal, Body Battery, weekly active minutes towards the weekly goal, battery and calories towards a goal you set, each filling its own sector of the rim and leaving the rest as a dark track. The metrics of the first two arcs also appear as cells in the top row with value and goal, the date between them. Under the Inter ExtraBold time (optional seconds while the screen is awake), a 2 × 3 grid shows heart rate, Body Battery, stress, distance, the weather with a live condition icon and sunset by default; the side cells show calories and active minutes, and a battery line sits at the bottom.
Each arc picks from steps, Body Battery, active minutes, battery, calories, stress, floors or distance (the distance arc fills over 10 km / 6 mi); each grid and side cell from sixteen options: heart rate, Body Battery, stress, distance, weather, sunset, sunrise, calories, active minutes, steps, floors, battery, temperature, notifications, altitude or off. Sunrise and sunset come from the weather position or your last activity position, with a local calculation when the forecast has no times. Units follow the watch; missing values show as --, never invented.
Five colour themes: Spectrum, Warm, Cool, Pastel and Mono accent in any of eight accent colours. Themes change colours only, never the layout. In always-on mode the face shows just the time in grey, or the whole face dimmed. Data is refreshed once a minute.
Free 7-day trial. After that a license key (USD 3.99) is required, available at allezfaces.lemonsqueezy.com.
