Version 1.62015-02-06T18:19:52.86

a lot of improvements:
* 10 stock/ currency values
* toast layer for messages
* reduced memory consumption
* new pebble lib

Version 1.52014-10-12T07:04:59.599

New features:

Selected configuration settings are now persistent. Means in case InfoWatch or SlideDeck has to restart the look and feel of the app didn't get lost.
Selected data gathered from the internet is cached. Means in case InfoWatch or SlideDeck has to restart weather information, stock remains available (for a reload period) and mustn't be reloaded (from the internet). Let's name it a fast load operation. ;)
Optimizations:

Finalization and use of a new own pebble (GUI) lib was the main topic of this release. Nearly all functionality is now provided by a lib. Two positive consequences: Stability, memory reduction and the opportunity for rapid new app development. ;)

Known problem:

Some special chars are not shown in the news InfoPanel. For example the words with accent and the spanish letter "ñ", doesn't show correctly. I use the pebble system font "FONT_KEY_GOTHIC_14" to show news texts in the normal InfoPanel. Due to this you have to use pebblebits to generate a system font set also covering your local chars.
Sometimes the settings dialog will not open and instead an endless animated gif cycle is shown. This is a pebble app "bug"/ problem. A simple solution is to retry after you opened another setting dialog. Sorry I've no influence and can't fix anything. In case you know how please tell me. :)

Version 1.42014-09-01T22:50:18.571

fixed iPhone settings are not shown bug

Version 1.22014-08-31T20:26:11.649

A new week a new SlideDeck alias V1.2 is out!. Why in such rapid succession? I've had a little time to wast ;) or much better to do a full code review and to fix a lot of bugs that lurked under the surface until now.

New Features:

* The expression "KW" (for calendar week) is now more international. :) In case you have better translations send it to me! Also I'm searching for translations for "Max:" and "Min:".

Optimizations:

* Fully reimplemented the load data algorithm.
* Outsourced further string tokens into resource files - due to this no further memory is necessary in case new translations were added. In case your translation is still missing/ or incorrect, provide the translation to me - (for a small donation) I will add/ correct it.
* Again further memory improvements to get more free space for new functionality.
* A few layout improvements.

Bugfixes:

* Hopefully I fixed now the "weather forecast got lost" bug.
* Now further special chars will be handled which are not part of the iPhone charset.
* A lot of small fixes not worth to get mentioned in detail. Be happy that they are now gone. ;)

Version 1.32014-08-31T09:09:01.848

New Features:

* Configurable GPS interface in the settings to set hight accuracy, timeout and location cache age properties. Don't play to much - the default properties worked until now in most cases. ;)
* Up to 3 public holiday names are shown below the calendar.
* The expression "KW" (for calendar week) is now more international. :) In case you have better translations send it to me! Furthermore I'm searching for translations for "Max:" and "Min:".

Optimizations:

* Fully reimplemented the load data algorithm and redesigned some pebble to phone exchange data structures.
* Outsourced further string tokens into resource files - due to this no further memory is necessary in case new translations were added. In case your translation is still missing/ or incorrect, provide the translation to me - (for a small donation) I will add/ correct it.
* Again further memory improvements to get more free space for new functionality - we remain below the 24kb barrier. ;)
* A few layout improvements.

Bugfixes:

* Hopefully I fixed now the "Fix weather forecast got lost" bug.
* Now further special chars will be handled which are not part of the iPhone charset.
* A lot of small fixes not worth to get mentioned in detail. Be happy that they are now gone. ;)

Version 1.12014-08-22T10:43:43.862

New Features:

* Finalized the calendar InfoPanel, showing the today date, KW (means calendar week) and
* all public holidays of the month provided from up to 38 countries/ locations. Thanks to the json service provided by Enrico.
* Added 10 new translations - such as Finnish, Hungarian, Polish, Portuguese, Turkish etc.
* Now also the task names are translated - so far I've had a translation.
* Added "fix weather location" property to disable internal GPS location service.
* Added "disable weather forecast" property.
* Added "disable calendar" property ...
* but in case the calendar isn't shown the status remains. ;)

Optimizations:

* Outsourced translations into resource files - due to this no further memory is necessary in case new translations were added. In case your translation is still missing, provide the translation to me - (for a small donation) I will add it.
* Again further memory improvements to get more free space to get place for new functionality.
* Better and more robust processing javascript side.
* A few layout improvements.
* Better sync between available and at the taskbar shown task.
* Changed some defaults of properties - in particular if it will vibrate when bluetooth connection gets lost.

Bugfixes:

* Fixed "weather got lost" bug.
* Solved the "weather data gets lost in case only the weather InfoPanel is configured" problem.
* Fixed a memory leak occurring in seldom circumstances.
* Solved the "internet data was loaded twice" problem.
* Handled the "Loading page error" message in the settings dialog.
* Now further special chars will be handled which are not part of the iPhone charset.
* A lot of small fixes not worth to get mentioned in detail.

Known problem:

Version 1.0.02014-06-13T13:43:41.239

Based on feedback I got in regard to the watchface InfoWatch I’ve implemented a fully new Watchface that addresses special wishes like:

* Usage of system fonts. Due to this on a pebblebits basis e.g. greece fonts will be available for feed texts.
* Bigger fonts and display for News, Stocks etc. that will help older people or people with poor eyesight to read the content.
* Extended news texts.
* Optimized accelerator control. Now demanded information is available without e.g. pressing two buttons – you only have to rotate your wrist.
* Optimized error reporting that shows in an understandable manner the state of the spluttering pebble app. ;)

The newly born SlideDesk V1.0 will be a parallel product to the InfoWatch V3.0. For example it not offers 

* … fixed info panels.
* … according to the memory bounds the third feed got lost.

Even through the remaining functionality is quite the same both products will evolve in different directions: Whereas the InfoWatch is designed to provide short and more information the SlideDeck was developed to provide long, detailed but less information.
