I was wandering through Ann Arbor and forgot where I parked my car.

It saves a location and gives the user a heading and distance back to it from their current position. It is entirely controlled and displayed on the Pebble Watch.

Written in JavaScript using the CloudPebble.net development tool.

The documentation for the Pebble library is very poorly written and incomplete. Online message boards provided many similar questions, but few answers. The main difficulty was in refreshing the content on the Pebble watches screen.

First time developing an app for a watch! Actually made something that I could use!

Learned that smart watches are a practical way for users to interact with certain software. I learned that javascript can be used in more than just webpages. I learned enough to be able to develope more apps for the Pebble in the future.

Replace the decimal heading with a rotating image of an arrow. Finish the backend for sending SOS messages to emergency contacts. This is difficult since only JavaScript and C can be used on the Pebble Watch.
