Foiling app for Apple Watch (and iPhone)

If @ludwig_bre is still planning to add BLE support to the next-generation BREmote, my plan is to integrate support for pulling telemetry from the remote. The available data will depend on what the receiver supports. As far as I know, the current version only communicates with VESC speed controllers, so the new version may have the same limitation.

I’m considering adding a custom BREmote screen on the Apple Watch to display basic data such as current, max current, and total amps. On the iPhone, I’d like to create a more detailed view that further breaks down the data, including metrics like the average amperage drawn at different speed intervals—for example, amperage at 20–22 km/h, 22–24 km/h, 24–26 km/h, etc. This will provide concrete data on the efficiency of different foils and propellers at various speeds.

There’s an image of the watch app with a mockup of the interface here:

I don’t have any concrete plans to add support for other devices, but I’m always open to suggestions.

The pricing will be $19.99 for a one-year subscription, with the first month free, allowing you to try the app before committing to a purchase.
