AURORA puts a painted northern-lights night behind everything you need for a day outside. Green curtains drift over a snow-capped ridge and a still lake, while big white-and-mint digits, the date and two data clusters sit on top with high contrast. A thin mint ring with side arcs and four ticks frames the dial.
Up top, three stacked words — HIGHER / FURTHER / BRIGHTER by default, yours to change — sit under a mountain mark. Left of the time the current temperature and the "feels like" value, right of it your altitude. Below the date a compass dial shows your heading between a steps cell and a live heart-rate cell, and a battery glyph closes the layout at the bottom.
Everything is drawn with vector fonts and scales cleanly from 360 to 466 px; always-on mode dims to just the time and date so AMOLED screens stay safe. The scene can be switched off for a pure black face, and every cell is configurable from the Connect IQ phone app.
Free 7-day trial. After that a license key (USD 4.99) is required, available at allezfaces.lemonsqueezy.com.
