Pages & Tiles
The main screen. A grid of tiles, each one a device from Home Assistant. Tap to control, swipe to navigate, glance to check status.
{/* video: pages in action — tapping, swiping, scrolling */}
Each tile shows an icon, the current state, and a color that changes when the device is active. You choose the colors — customize each tile’s active and inactive look in the iPhone app.
The default tile size is 6x4 — a good balance of tappability and density. Tiles go from 1x1 all the way up to 12 wide by any height — a single tile can take up the entire screen if you want. Everything updates in real time.
Tiles can also have patterns (stripes, dots, chevrons), animated borders (pulse, shimmer, rainbow), value bars showing percentages, and overlay effects like aurora or fire.
Organize tiles across multiple pages. Swipe left and right between them — rooms, categories, whatever grouping works for you.
Switch pages by:
- Swiping left and right
- Digital Crown — Rotate to scroll between pages (enable in Settings)
- Page Switcher — Long-press a tile, slide to the page switcher action, and pick a page
- Edge Swipe — Swipe from the bottom edge (enable in Settings)
- Wrist Flick — Twist your wrist to go forward or back (enable in Settings)
Page names show at the top of the screen. Choose from three styles — Minimal, Pill, or Glass — or hide them entirely. The title auto-fades after a moment so it doesn’t block your tiles. Configure in Settings → Navigation.
Smart Pages
Section titled “Smart Pages”Don’t want to build a page by hand? Smart Pages fill themselves based on rules — “everything that’s on”, “all kitchen entities”, “low battery sensors”. Tiles appear and disappear automatically.
Room-Aware Navigation
Section titled “Room-Aware Navigation”Set up a room sensor (like Bermuda BLE Trilateration) and WristAssistant can switch pages as you walk between rooms. Triple-tap above the tiles to jump to your current room’s page. See Compass Control for direction-based device control within a room.
Configure in Settings → Rooms.
Connection Status
Section titled “Connection Status”A small dot shows your connection: green = connected and live, orange = connecting or degraded, red = offline. If something breaks, a status pill appears with details — tap it for diagnostics.
Making Changes
Section titled “Making Changes”All layout changes happen on the iPhone app. Add tiles, resize them, create pages, apply themes, set up groups. Both the iPhone app and the watch app need to be open at the same time for changes to sync over.
