Creator here, no GPS because I always have my phone on my, hence no GPS. I designed it for myself. Also this was my first pcb, so did not want to complicate it more than necessary :)
Thanks for the response. I don't mean to diminish what you've made, it looks really, really cool.
Thank you for being so detailed in what you have built. It's terrific you are so open.
I'm not in a position where I can understand whether adding GPS is feasible. I'm saddened that the BangleJS can't reliably pull GPS signals so I'm assuming it is not just adding the hardware.
I just really want a watch with several days battery life and a GPS so I can go for a run without my phone. The BangleJS has amazing battery life, but the GPS is not optimal. It's a software problem as far as I can tell, so maybe easier to resolve.
Thanks again for posting and for responding to my comments.
wow! first PCB of the watch or first PCB you designed for anything? Either way very impressive. I've been curious to get into PCB design but not sure what id make with that skill yet. Ordering custom boards seems to be quite accessible these days. How did you learn to do all this?
