Here is a review of a device that should be open source, it's not yet but probably will be in the future.

Oof. I wouldve loved something like Watchy. Extra painful when you use your own time to basically fix their product for them but they just don’t have any clue what they are doing

It is painful, but it's not all lost. First, the 2.0 watchy that can be bought on aliexpress is pretty good already and I'm not comfortable with posting this for I think obvious reasons, but I'm working on an ideal watchy for me: https://github.com/Szybet/Yatchy It won't be a commercial product or anything, it will be just a perfect watchy for people who want something better than 2.0
