Oasis Steps Watch Face

BasilBase

About this app

Oasis is not a tree that grows in three stages. It is a whole desert
becoming an oasis, moving continuously, all day, on your steps alone.

Every midnight the dial resets to bare sand: dry ground, cracks running
through it, haze over everything. Then you walk, and the valley fills in.


WHAT YOUR STEPS BUILD

· The cracked ground heals shut and the sand goes green
· A pool opens at the centre and widens as the day goes on
· Grass arrives in five bands, then reeds, then flowers
· Two date palms rise out of the ground
· Birds cross the sky
· Clouds gather, because a valley with water in it has weather

All of it runs off your step count against your goal, and none of it ever
goes backwards during the day. What is on your wrist at six in the evening
is the day you actually had.


THE PALMS REALLY GROW

Nothing here is one drawing swapped for a bigger one. The palms are
scaled from the step fraction itself, anchored at the root, so the trunk
lengthens and the crown opens while you walk. Measured on a Galaxy
Watch6 against the height it was meant to be, it tracked to under a pixel.
Not a progress bar with pictures on it.


THE LIGHT IS A SECOND, SEPARATE CLOCK

Time of day is kept apart from your steps, so the dial never tells you two
things at once.

· A sun on a real orbit: up over the dunes in the morning, above the digits
at noon, down the far side at dusk
· A moon on the same orbit, half a day behind, overhead at midnight
· A band of gold along the horizon early and late
· Stars, once it is dark

Sunrise and sunset run on fixed hours rather than from your location - a
deliberate trade, and this is what it buys.


NOTHING TO ALLOW, NOTHING TO SET UP

Oasis reads no location and no weather. No permission screen, no dash where
a temperature should be, nothing to wait for. It asks the watch for the
time, the date, your steps, your goal and the battery level, all things your
watch already knows. Install it, choose it, walk.


IT DOES NOT STOP AT THE GOAL

Reach it and the outer ring closes and a second ring starts filling behind
it. The valley has answers past that point too, more than one, and they are
not listed here on purpose. Walk further than you meant to.


ON THE DIAL

· Hours and minutes, big enough to read at arm's length
· Weekday and date
· Steps over your goal as numbers, not a percentage, so you can see what
you are measured against
· Battery, with its own icon so it cannot be misread as progress
· Two rings around the rim: the goal, and everything past the goal


THREE SETTINGS, SIXTEEN OPTIONS, ALL ON THE WATCH

· Step goal. Auto takes the goal already set in your watch's own health app,
so most people never touch it. Six fixed goals from 5,000 to 20,000 if you
would rather aim the dial elsewhere.
· Colour. Six tones for the digits and the readout: white, sand, mint, sky,
rose and amber. The landscape keeps its own colours.
· Clock. Follow the watch, or force 24-hour, or 12-hour with AM/PM.

No complication slots, and nothing to configure before it works.


ALWAYS-ON

The always-on screen is outline only, one dim colour, no sky - and it still
shows what you grew today in silhouette, under the clock, the date, your
steps and both rings.
