The widget on the watch face

Speed and a “recording” mark right on the face: check how you are going without opening the app.

Adding it

1On the watch, press and hold the face and tap “Edit”.

2Swipe to the complications page and pick an empty slot.

3Find Voone in the list — it sits among all the apps, below the suggestions.

Four families are supported: circular, corner, inline and rectangular. The circular and corner ones show the speed, the inline one shows it as a line, and the rectangular one adds wind and miles.

What it shows

Speed in knots from the last track point.

The recording mark while a passage is being written: “REC” in the circular family and “Recording” in the rectangular one.

A dash when there is no data: a snapshot older than a minute counts as stale, and the widget will not pass an old speed off as fresh.

Tapping the widget opens the app on the watch.

If there is no data

The widget is updated by the watch app, and that one by the phone. If the phone is far away, switched off or Voone is not running on it, the widget shows a dash. Opening the app on the phone brings the data back within a minute.
