The reason runplus
is not just in run
is for Bangle.js 1 to be able to run it within RAM constraints. So they will not be merged (edit: maybe e.g. the zoom functionality would fit in run
- don't know) or removed 🙂
Why did you get them mixed up? Maybe wording in readme could be clearer? Maybe runplus
should have an altered icon? Suggestions and PRs welcome as always 😃
I guess we could remove the Bangle.js 2 from compatible devices in run
's metadata. But I don't know if I'd prefer that.

I think dropping Bangle 2 from run
and Bangle 1 from runplus
would solve the majority of the issue though
I think we should keep the supports tag in metadata strictly for ability to work on the device. If we start deciding that on subjective factors we are going to have problems down the line. run
is actually a nice example as runplus
might deviate from the feature set further in the future. Having run
available on Bangle 2 is useful, be it as the default app for running or even the lighter on RAM alternative if the user has other priorities and uses memory heavy stuff alongside run
.
Perhaps a suggested upgrade - if the user's selected BangleJS 2 as their device, we could have a metadata field which references the upgraded app, and we show that as a hint in the app loader

@pavelmachek did you have some feedback regarding this?
So what happened was that after various backups/restore cycles I was updating "run" application, wondering why I'm not getting new features from runplus.
I was not aware that run / runplus is due to BangleJS 1 limitations. Perhaps "Not recommended on BangleJS 2, use runplus" note in application description would solve the confusion?
Added hints in run
app README and description: 13e25279b92c5395ce82add263da9459f2970e03 5b785bc5d14ea62f7e74c118daf1336c9dae4a8c
I think that's good enough for now.
Affected hardware version
Bangle 2

The bug
Could we merge functionality of Run and Run+, or perhaps just drop Run as Run+ is a superset? Having both is confusing, and it let me to debugging "why does not zooming in work for me". Well.. it did not as I had Run and feature is only available in Run+.
