How to use InfiniTime apps

Stopwatch

Stopwatch

The stopwatch measures passed time in minutes, seconds and hundredths of seconds.

When the stop watch is not running, the left button shows a stop symbol and resets the current time to zero. It is not clickable when the time is already zero. The right button shows a start symbol and starts the stop watch.

While the stop watch is running, the left button shows a flag. Tapping it allows to register an intermediate time without stopping the measurement. The last two intermediate times are shown below the running time besides. The right button shows a pause symbol. Tapping it pauses the measurement (without resetting it).

After starting the measurement, the measurement should become green and the text underneath should be "Not enough data, please wait ...".

To stop the measurement, press the button at the bottom, which should now be labeled with "Stop".

Keep in mind that InfiniTime and the PineTime watch are no medical devices. The measured number is not guaranteed to be your actual heart rate. See this feature more as a toy.

Some of the cells will be filled with numbers that are powers of two. Your goal is to make as many moves as possible and thereby earn as many points as possible. You make a move by swiping either up, down, left or right. All numbers on the grid will then move as far in this direction as possible. When two numbers with the same values collide, they will be added to a single cell.

The right button shows a play sign if the metronome is paused and a pause sign if the metronome is running. Use it to start or pause the metronome.

It shows whether the alarm is active or not. The right button is labeled either "ONCE", "DAILY" or "MON-FRI". Tapping it cycles between those three. It shows on which days the alarm will ring when it is active.
