On your watch. * Apple Watch Complication: Put Time for Coffee! as a complication on your watch face and you don't even have to open or tap anything anymore. * Favourite your stations and/or connections to only see the information you care about. * Tested and proven in real life to make it as convenient to use as possible. * Open Source. * Have more time for a coffee at home or in the office. If you have Apple Watch complications installed, we ask for the "Always" permission for location updates, so that we can update the complication in the background on demand. Also enable in Settings "Privacy -> Location Services -> System Services -> Frequent Locations", it does use this feature and therefore not use lots of battery power, but still may dramatically decrease battery life. If you set the location permission to "While using", complications are still updated, but only every 45 minutes. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
