You could also post in the app's forum thread:

In one of his other apps, Tidal Face https://apps.garmin.com/apps/2fcce126-f5cc-4b3f-bd7e-36047612288c
The developer has this:
END-OF-LIFE NOTICE:
Due to changes in my private life (since October 2019), I have stopped all updates and correspondence for all of my Garmin CIQ apps.
Yet two other apps (including NoFrills) were updated in 2022, and the developer has replied in the nofrills thread 8 months ago (2024). So the dev's own actions have rendered that statement obsolete.

I agree that all indications are it's unlikely NoFrills will be updated, especially since it currently doesn't support any AMOLED devices, meaning it would likely be a lot of work to add support any single AMOLED device, like Fenix 8 (assuming that the request is for an AMOLED variant of Fenix 8). Notably, people have been asking the developer to update the app for new devices in that thread for a couple of years now, and he hasn't responded to those specific requests.
My suggestion was more of a "couldn't hurt but it probably won't work" thing, which is why I also said "note that nofrills hasn't been updated since 2022 tho."
