A few Osmo improvements ⚡

Published 29 days ago • 1 min read

A few useful upgrades!

Hi everyone,

Short one today, just pushed a firmware update! Here's what's improved:

  1. (NEW) Battery optimization — improvements to the device's standby power management. Osmo should last ~30% longer between charges (and always charge till red light goes off!)
  2. (NEW) Temp & humidity — on the "Still Connected" screen, Osmo will now display ambient readings of your surroundings*
  3. (NEW) Charging indicator — screen indicator for charging... make sure you charge until the bottom red light turns OFF!
  4. (FIX) Stale notification on boot — no more old notifications popping up when your Osmo first connects

*click the action button while on that screen to change temp units (F/C)

To get the update, just re-install via the original web setup tool. Only takes a minute!

VOTE

I will soon be sending out a poll for you all to vote on the next Osmo features.

Still getting lots of requests for a premium companion app and configurable settings, so stay tuned!

Recent Testimonials

With several hundred Osmo users and counting, I've been getting lots of emails and DM's recently from you all! Means a lot to receive such warm feedback from the community.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ordered it. Using it. Love it so far !! Keep on going."

"Just got this running...works great and the instructions were very clear. Glad to have this working and thank you!"

"I already appreciate just having the tiny device in my pocket, or placing it on top of my phone as a barrier to screen time...[as a freelancer] Osmo is a perfect answer for ensuring I don't miss anything vital, while keeping an easy barrier to entry from just continuing into any given app and doomscrolling."

"I can't wait to keep my phone in my backpack at work tomorrow and get more things done. Thanks for making this."

"Simple to set up, clean, and minimal. Thank you for sharing your project."

"This is amazing! Building an app to unlock configurations and customizations would be an incredible tool as well. Thank you for sharing this openly, it’s clear that many of us have really been wanting something like this!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks again, and as always, feel free to reach out.

Talk soon,
-Ty

Osmo is still charging anytime the bottom red light is ON 🔴 It seems there was some confusion about fully charging the device and what the battery level represents, so wanted to clarify. To fully charge your Osmo, plug it in and wait until the red light on the bottom turns OFF. ***Just because the screen's battery icon looks "full" doesn't mean you're done charging*** The battery icon is just a rough estimate that mainly shows you when it starts to deplete. Always charge your Osmo once you...
