    The v2 build for Windows 11 — a standalone tray app that drives your Waveshare AMOLED watch with Claude usage, live "Now Playing", Home Assistant control, and a settings panel. Works on every supported board — the square ESP32-S3-Touch-AMOLED-2.16 (the original), the 2.06 watch, the 1.8, and the C6 2.16.

    Windows app — download & run (no Python required)

    1. Pair the watch once: Settings → Bluetooth & devices → Add device → "Clawdmeter".
    2. Sign in to Gitea, then download Clawdmeter.exe — direct link (use this, not the asset button, which may send you to an internal address):
      https://gitea.bvrdo.online/wenil/clawdmeter/releases/download/v2.0-beta.2/Clawdmeter.exe
    3. Double-click it. A tray icon appears; the watch updates within ~10 s. Left-click the icon → Settings opens the panel (Home Assistant URL/token/entities, custom buttons).
    4. Right-click → Start at login to launch it automatically.

    Everything is bundled (its own Python, the WinRT BLE stack, the media reader, the WebView2 settings panel) — no install, no pip. Logs to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Clawdmeter\daemon.log.

    Unsigned build — Windows SmartScreen may warn on first run ("More info → Run anyway"). Code-signing is planned.

    Firmware — build & flash for your board

    The .exe above is the same for every board; the watch firmware you build for your specific board. With PlatformIO installed, from the repo:

    # square 2.16 (original):   pio run -d firmware -e waveshare_amoled_216   -t upload --upload-port COM5
    # 2.06 watch:               pio run -d firmware -e waveshare_amoled_206   -t upload --upload-port COM5
    # 1.8:                      pio run -d firmware -e waveshare_amoled_18     -t upload --upload-port COM5
    # C6 2.16:                  pio run -d firmware -e waveshare_amoled_216_c6 -t upload --upload-port COM5
    

    Use your device's COM port. On Windows, set $env:PYTHONIOENCODING="utf-8" first (avoids a cp1251 console hang mid-flash). Full guide: README.md · porting notes in docs/porting/.

    What's new since beta 1

    • App launcher on the watch — tap the Claude logo for a grid of apps: Usage, Session tokens, Now Playing, Soundpad, Home, Dimmer, Bluetooth, Battery.
    • Home Assistant control — the watch stays "dumb"; the desktop app holds your HA URL/token and maps watch taps to service calls. Configure custom Home buttons (label → action/entity) in the Settings panel; they appear on the watch automatically.
    • Tilt-dimmer — an IMU joystick screen: hold BOOT and tilt your wrist to ramp a light's brightness or color temperature; PWR switches the parameter. (The tilt axis is calibrated per board — flip DIM_CALIB in ui.cpp to see the live read-out.)
    • Battery screen + protective cutoff — tap the battery icon for voltage and a time-left estimate; the watch powers itself off safely at a low-voltage floor.
    • Unified desktop app — tray + daemon + a brand-styled WebView2 settings panel (Home Assistant setup with a live "Test", entity picker, button editor), all in one Clawdmeter.exe.
    • Soundpad — six pads send HID F13–F18 for host-side sound triggers.
