Hi All,
was just thinking... about the CIQ App limitations (memory), over the weekend when I was using the BikeFields datafield and the thing keep on going to the TIMER screen!! I tot it was crashing!
1) Datafields gets 16kb vs Watchfaces 64kb
2) Dead Code or "unused" codes bloat up the memory allocation
3) int / Float / Double / arrays all adds up in terms of memory usage (some more than others)
So, as I have effectively bundled my RunField / BikeFields datafield as an all-in-one, coupled w/ bad coding/inefficient coding practices - I am reaching the ceiling of the memory size.
I have found that doing #2 (basically by doing per device support) will provide more leeway against app crashes - i'm already at 14kb of 16kb on some cases.
but the downside to doing this is that well - I own the F3 only and if I were to separate the apps - there's a high chance that given there being no "incentive - in whatever form besides Kudos / Star ratings" - I'll likely fall into the "forgo the other watches and focus on what I have (F3) cos it's what I want/need.
I've also read that doing layouts will eat up more memory - hence I didn't even pursue this part.
Note : ends up - I realised after the fact that I had the CLIMB Screen feature turned on and it was flipping to the CLIMB screen and I forgot to set the CLIBMB screen to the correct Screen position.
