as you probably know, I am excitedly waiting for the release of iPeng on Apple Watch.
It is important to understand that the watch is perfect for basic info and commands. It is not a mini iPhone. Something some developers simply did wrong, in trying to add too much functionality and info on the tiny screen. One would still use the iPhone to search the library and put together playlists, whilst the Watch is great for seeing what is running on the Squeezebox and seeing what is next. Or basic operations as pausing and skipping etc. Adding too much functionality - could be a bad thing... I would also like to see Favourites on the watch, making a quick selection of a radio station easy. Many people wh have been complaining abot the watch have not quite understood that it is sort of a remote for the iPhone or an Addon, but not a fullfledged IOS device. I never got the point of having your photo collection on your wrist. In a time when they are selling gigantic phones, to make looking at photos or surfing the web more fun, what is the point of looking at a photo the size of a stamp?!? Also people wanting a webbrowser. Why?????? So for iPeng, I guess - less is more - quick access with few controls is better IMHO than many screens and functions that will only get it bloated. The screenshots show that it is definitely doing it right and Pippin actually has and und understands the watch. So, I am counting the days...
