I love it and use it frequently for watching videos while at work and not getting caught 🤫Only one problem is that I would absolutely love the ability to fast forward / rewind more precisely via using the knob on the watch.Only other thing you could add is maybe an option to resize the video the a perfect square when importing to the watch so you can fill the entire screen with the video.Other than that, absolutely perfect! Please add the knob scrubbing for video fast forward / rewind 😀
Developer Response
You can easily swipe right/left on the bottom bar in the video player to fast forward/rewind.
