Bubble Dive is built around two things: live bubble particle animations that rise continuously across the face, and three configurable data bubbles at the bottom left, bottom right, and top that show your health metrics with a glanceable icon at the center. Set the colors, configure the data, and watch it breathe.

Rising bubbles, every second

The face runs a continuous bubble particle animation: translucent spheres of varying sizes drift upward across the screen, creating a calm underwater feel. The animation updates every second alongside the time, giving the face constant motion without distraction. Bubble Mode lets you switch between different animation styles to match your preference.

Bubble Dive animated bubbles

Three fields, fully configurable

Three bubble overlays sit at the bottom left, bottom right, and top of the face. Each one displays a metric with a dedicated icon at its center: Steps, Calories, Heart Rate, Battery, Active Minutes, Floors, Body Battery, Stress, or VO2 Max. Reassign any slot independently in settings, or turn it off entirely to keep the face clean.

Bubble Dive data field bubbles

9 themes, fully configurable

Choose from 9 built-in themes (Blue, Coral, Arctic, Matcha, Coffee, Rose, Midnight, Stone, Classic), each carefully tuned for the arc, digits, date, and background. Or go fully custom: pick from 14 named colors for each element independently and make the face entirely yours.

Bubble Dive color settings

Large digits, clean layout

The time is rendered using large colored bitmap digits that fill the center of the face and are impossible to miss. Date sits above the hours, seconds below the minutes (optional). Toggle seconds on or off and choose between 12h and 24h format.

Bubble Dive time display

A snorkel, hidden in plain sight

Look closely and you'll find a snorkel character tucked into the face, a small diving detail that gives Bubble Dive its personality. It shifts position with the bubble animation, part of the same underwater world the bubbles live in.

Everything at once

With all three data bubbles filled and the animation running, the face is as information-dense as it is alive. Steps bottom left, heart rate bottom right, calories at the top: everything glanceable, nothing cluttered. Or turn the bubbles off entirely and let the animation breathe on its own.
