  • InfiniTime 1.11 Release Highlights

InfiniTime 1.11 was released after three and a half months of community work, merging 59 pull requests that added new watch faces, bug fixes, and performance improvements. A key feature is the use of the PineTime’s 4 MB external flash memory to store fonts and images, expanding the device’s visual capabilities beyond the limited internal 512 KB. This builds on earlier integration of the LittleFS file system (introduced in 1.3.0) and the BLE FS API (1.8), enabling companion apps to upload and access external resources. The update frees internal memory for future features while maintaining a smooth user experience.
