Navigation¶

Turn-by-turn directions from the phone: the next turn's arrow, what to do there, the distance to it and how much of the route is done. Ported from InfiniTime's Navigation.

Using it¶

Open it while the phone is giving directions. When it opens it asks the phone for the current step, and it follows each new step the phone sends.
The arrow shows the next turn: straight on, a slight, ordinary or sharp turn left or right, a U-turn, a roundabout or the finish. The line under it says what to do there.
The distance is in metres and kilometres, or in feet and miles if Metric units is off in Settings.
The bar shows how much of the route is done, and turns red past 90 percent.
Until the phone sends a step, the app shows Navigation and --M.
There are no buttons; the side button goes back.

Screens¶

The navigation app waiting for directions

On opening, before the phone has sent a step.

The navigation app showing the next turn

A step from the phone: the instruction, 350 m to go and the route about a third done.

With the companion app¶

The directions come from a phone app that sends Gadgetbridge's Bangle.js navigation messages. The BattleTime companion app follows no navigation itself, so with it alone the app stays waiting. Those messages carry no progress, so the bar stays empty unless the sender supplies it.
