Stats Heavy Meaning

[MihaelaA]

Hello,

I am quite new to Fitbit watch face development and I'm struggling to understand when exactly a watch face is considered as being Stats Heavy.

Is there a rule or guideline to follow in order to develop a Stats Heavy watch face?

Can somebody help me understand?

Hello @MihaelaA I've moved your post about developing watch faces to the developer board. 

I would think a heavy stat face is a face that shows as many of today's stats as is possible. I find them awful in that it sometimes is hard to read the time, never mind being able to read any of the stats. But then that is me.

Stats Heavy would a clock which prominently displays a lot of stats, like this:

but not just showing a few small stats in the corner, like:

Ok so for example if I were to develop a simple watch face based on time, date, charge level, heart rate and I would display also the calories, steps and distance. Would this be a Stats Heavy watch face?

[JonFitbit]

If those stats were prominently displayed, yes.

So it's more like how much of the watch screen is filled by the stats or special features or how they are highlighted in the whole design.
