Version 4.0
Image Layers
One of the most requested features was to be able to add images to your Pujie Black watch faces.
This is now possible by adding an image layer to your custom watch parts.
Automation
You can now automate some properties of your layers using JavaScript.
This will work in Live Texts and the new Custom Complications. Automation works on layer positioning, scaling and rotation, and
some of the layer specific properties like the properties of an arc layer and the properties of a text layer.
Custom Complications
Using the watch part editor you can create a custom complication style, which can display the data of an external complication provider (or one of the build-in data providers).
You define a style, which should work with several data configurations and afterwards you apply the data to it. To achieve this you can use
automation to create conditional visibilities, or position them
Cloud Library
And last, but certainly not least, an in-app Cloud Library. The Cloud Library allows you to
store and share your presets and watch parts with the other users of the library. You can like and comment on items and it automatically keeps your items synced, so it will always contain your latest versions.
To get access to the library you can start with a free trial, but after the trial it will require a paid subscription.
Full change log

- Faster app startup
- The dreaded nokia issue
Version 3.6
Watch part drawer
We worked hard to improve the watch part drawer, to make it easier to make intricate watch parts. New features include the option to
group layers and to
rotate layers. There are 2 new layer types,
Arc Layers and most importantly
Text Layers!
Font browser
For the Text Layers and all other text elements on the watch face you can make use of a huge set of
800+ new fonts (with courtesy of the Google Fonts system).
Live texts
To optimally make use of the new Text Layers, Pujie Black 3.6 introduces a new Watch Part called
Live Text. Live Texts are intended to show Text in a fancy way (think a Date box or a Flip Clock).
You can use all kinds of Tags to gather the data you want to show as text.
For instance you can show your fit statistics, weather conditions, but also just the time or the date.
Full change log
- Group layers
- Rotate layers
- New Text Layer and Arc Layer
- New watch part Live Text including Text Tag Browser

Version 3.5
Configuration on the watch
Pujie Black 3.5 is all about a new configuration menu on the watch! You can now,
save presets & select presets directly from the watch. When running Android Wear 2.0 you can also
import presets, directly from the web.
Android Wear 2.0 - Complications
Once you have received the Android Wear 2.0 update on your watch you can now replace the
indicators, the top label and the tapdrawer buttons in your preset with external complications. These external complications can show data from external data providers.
Android Wear 2.0 - Background
Like with the indicators, you can use the Android Wear 2.0 complication system to choose
an external data provider as the source for the background of the Interactive
and Ambient view. This will allow you to display images, you current media or whatever external data providers will think of!
Android Wear 2.0 - Standalone
Pujie Black can now be run as a standalone app on Android Wear 2.0. When running standalone, the app does it's own weather, calendar and fit data polling.
Using the new configuration menu it is possible to change some of the most important settings. This also means that you can now use Pujie Black
even when you have your watch connected to an iPhone or if your phone is turned off.
Lost features :(
The option
Enfore black and white in ambient has been removed. Because of the custom backgrounds and watch hands it is now impossible to determine which elements should be white and which elements should be black.

Version 3.4
Custom watch hands & background
Starting version 3.4 Pujie Black has it's own
vector drawing tool inside,
allowing you to draw
your own watch hands and backgrounds.
These watch hands and background will be fully vector, meaning they will be crisp at any
resolution. You can also share them with other users!
Free indicator size and position
You can now change the size and position of the indicator freely. Look in the Shared tab to
enable this feature.
Backups
A better backup method has been implement. From the settings you can send yourself a backup
file and import this on another device or just keep it as a backup (which will contain your
presets, watch hands and background).
Icon pack support
For the tap drawer you can now also assign icons from the icon packs you have
installed on your device.
Sharing
Sharing has been slightly changed too. To account for the increasingly long share codes.
When you share, the codes are uploaded to the cloud, which allows you to share with a much
shorter share code. This does mean that share codes are not really meant for backing up
any more, please use the backup mechanism for that.

- Design your own watch hands and backgrounds
- Share your watch hands and backgrounds with others
- Free placement and sizing of indicators
- Improved backup mechanism

Version 3.3
Phone app UI
The UI went through a pretty big makeover, for looks and for ease of use. First of all,
the app now completely re-colors itself to match your preset.
This makes every preset fit in perfectly and well it's just looks nice :). This is accompanied by a Navigation Drawer to achieve a more Material app structure.
The preset library also got a big makeover, including a new search option to find your presets more easily. If you are so lucky to run Lollipop or Marshmallow, some of these elements will have some nice transitions attached to them.
Shortcuts
Another big thing is the addition of
Shortcuts for Tap Actions. Besides the current tap action you can now choose from all of the possible shortcuts on your phone (like direct Call, direct message etc).
This makes a lot more possible without the need for Tasker.
