Eh it’s just not my cup of tea. Maybe if the flecks were closer to the main color of the band (i.e. all varying shades of blue). What’s crazy is that I really like the new Nike sport loops with all the different recycled yarn colors. The Game Royal/Orange is 🔥🔥🔥
You called it bad. What was the point of that

Will be interesting to see if the new BU band is individual or if they‘re all the same pattern.

Edit: they are supposed to be individual, but the variations „tiny“.

The Apple Watch Black Unity Sport Band features an arrangement of flowers molded abstractly across the band utilizing red, green, and yellow colors. Inspired by the rich cultural diversity of Black communities around the world, Apple used a unique layering process for the flowers to create tiny variations in each band’s design, ensuring no two bands are exactly alike. The pin of the band is coated with a durable diamond-like carbon finish that features an etching of the words “Truth, Power, Solidarity” alongside one of four symbolic flower emblems.

Yeah safe to say not very noticeable. Using the same molding process as the original Unity SB and every other multicolor spba we've seen

It's cool. But i'll wait until they're on eBay for $20 a piece again.

Thank you for your work. 10k downloads is impressive and well deserved.

But I think we all should try to get that tip jar filling a little higher.

I’ve been using the bandbreite app for a long time and finally decided to send you a tipp after I saw that 10k people only tipped 574$ 😳

Keep up the great work!

If I could wish for a new feature, I’d love a way to add my prototype bands to the app 😇

P.S. Agreed, but it is and never was about the money. But at least, I would prefer to reward all the developers for spending a lot of time working on features more. Unfortunately, the tip jar is not a sufficient method for achieving this goal. We may have plans to cover the costs of running the app at least, but this will likely not happen until version 2 is released in a far, far away future.

After some advice - I wish there was a sport band in Nike's 'volt' colour - anyone got a suggestion for which is the closest sport band colour to this? I was thinking Flash, but not sure if it's too yellow.

Yeah Flash Band is too yellow, but Flash Loop is pretty close actually. I think wearing half of a Flash and half of a Green makes the same impression as Volt.

I have been looking for one of those for ages. Chargerstore doesn't seem to have one - any suggestions? I am UK based.
