ORBIT turns your watch into an orbital dashboard. Four coloured arcs hug the bezel and fill up as your day progresses: steps toward your goal in blue, battery in green, today's distance in orange and Body Battery in purple. Inside, a glowing orbit ring frames a deep-space scene with a planet horizon and a scatter of stars, and a big two-tone time you can read at a glance, hours in white and minutes in blue.
Everything you check most often sits in its own quadrant with a clear icon: battery, steps, distance and Body Battery. The top of the dial shows your current altitude with floors climbed, and the bottom shows the current weather with the temperature and today's high and low. All values follow the units set on your watch (km/mi, m/ft, °C/°F) and the 12/24-hour clock setting.
Make it yours from the Connect IQ app on your phone: pick what each of the four arcs tracks (steps, battery, distance, Body Battery, stress, active minutes, floors or calories), set your daily distance goal, choose the colour of the minutes, write your own motto under the time, and swap the top and bottom of the dial for sunrise/sunset, notifications, heart rate or a second time zone. Time format and temperature unit can follow the watch or be forced to 12/24 h and °C/°F.
Designed for AMOLED displays, ORBIT uses a pure black rim and lit pixels only where they matter. In always-on mode it drops to a dim time and date on plain black to protect the screen and the battery. It works out of the box with no configuration: install it and go.
Free 7-day trial. After that a license key (USD 4.99) is required, available at allezfaces.lemonsqueezy.com.
