What's in it

A watch face with the time, time in VR, volume, the emptiest battery, now playing, RAM, CPU, the room, VRAM and six buttons, and the page dots

The watch

Look at your wrist. Fill a 6 × 4 grid with 32 widgets: clocks, batteries, music, frame times, buttons. Add more pages and swipe between them.

The VRChat page: the time, who is in the room, the microphone, batteries, notifications, now playing and a row of buttons

VRChat and Performance pages

Who is in the room, your microphone and notifications on one page, the last 30 seconds of frame times, CPU and VRAM on the next. Tap the room to see who is there.

The watch editor: the selected widget's style and its two colours

A look for every widget

Tint, Solid, Two-tone, Header, Outline or Glass in 13 colours. Clocks as Flip, Stacked, Segment, Words or a station clock, and a font of your choice.

The VR keyboard with a shortcut bar and the chatbox key

Desktop and keyboard

Monitors and windows as curved screens, the laser as your mouse, a keyboard that opens by itself. The bar under your middle monitor has Theater mode and the keyboard.

Minesweeper opened on the watch: the board, mines left, the time, flag mode and the board size

Minesweeper

A small tile that grows into the game: tap to open a square, hold to flag it. In the Windows 95 style it is the real 1995 Minesweeper, in Windows 7 the Windows 7 one.

The settings in the Windows 95 style: the watch layout with its pages Page 1, VRChat and Performance
