Meridian puts the clock above the map; Horizon puts it below.
Move the map, the clock or a place’s slot in the time zones panel, in watch pixels. The clock always spans the full width, so only its height changes. Drag on the preview or use the arrow keys; hold Shift for 5-pixel steps.
Up to three cities, each with its own time zone, marker and color.
Search for a city and pick the right match; its coordinates and daylight-saving rules are filled in. Saved cities work offline. City search: Open-Meteo / GeoNames. Beside a clock, +1 means tomorrow there, −1 means yesterday; no mark means the same calendar date as your watch.
Twelve small shapes, drawn to stay readable at five pixels.
Choose which panels appear below the map, their order, and how they change.

The words on the watch: dates, panel titles and messages. Automatic follows the phone, as the phone settings page sees it.

The map projects the globe onto the twenty faces of an icosahedron and unfolds it without splitting a continent. Fuller worked on it for decades and called the result a deck plan of Spaceship Earth. It shows the planet as one island in one ocean, with no country at the center. He developed the final version with Shoji Sadao.
