That's probably because you are building in DEBUG mode. In this mode, the binary size has become too big to fit in the internal flash memory. This is a side effect of adding new features :)

As a workaround, you can disable the debug mode by removing -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug or modifying it to -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release in your CMake command line.

If you want to actually debug your build, you'll have to disable some parts of the code to reduce the binary side. For example, the icons of the navigation app take a lot of space : comment the content of the array m_iconMap in https://github.com/JF002/InfiniTime/blob/develop/src/displayapp/screens/Navigation.h#L148.

Thanks...that worked.

I tried to comment the content of the array m_iconMap but the built result indicates a FLASH overflow of 148260 bytes :grimacing:

Where is my mistake?

In advance, thank you.
