What's new in 1.5 Skyty on your wrist. A full Apple Watch app with four glanceable complications: • Altitude — flight altitude in a circular complication • Position — city, altitude & speed at a glance • Position (Inline) — city & altitude on one line • Altitude (Corner) — flight altitude in the watch face corner Live-synced from your iPhone via WatchConnectivity. Falls back to the Watch's own GPS when the iPhone is out of reach. Same offline-first DNA — works at cruise altitude with no signal.
