Wrist Pipe 2.0 is here!

The best app to keep you in tune on the go just got better! With Wrist Pipe’s extensive customization options, large selection of instruments, and support for set lists, you’ll never need another pitch pipe again!

What’s New in 2.0?

New Icon!

The icon has been updated to be simpler and more visible in the app view

Themes!

  • This is the feature I’m most excited about! I’ve spent months hand-designing over 100 themes spread across 3 categories: Colors, Causes, and Barbershop
  • I tried to make sure any BHS chorus that has won their district competition and/or competed in international in the last few years has their own theme
  • Some themes have a center image, but if that makes it too difficult to see the selected pitch, it can be toggled off
  • There is also a button to select a random theme, if you can’t decide!

Double Tap

  • If you are running watchOS 11 on an Apple Watch Series 9, Ultra 2, or newer, you will be able to use the double tap gesture to play the selected pitch

Instruments and Octaves

  • Alongside the samples from an actual pitch pipe, there are now several midi instruments to chose from
  • Some of the instruments can be tuned up or down an octave

Set Lists

  • You can now create multiple set lists!
  • Both set lists and songs can now be reordered and renamed without the need to delete and recreate them!

Tips

  • I am now leveraging the TipKit framework to walk first time users through how to use key features of the app

Hold To Play

  • The new default control will play the selected pitch while holding the center button and stop on release
  • This can be toggled back to the previous tap-to-play / tap-to-stop controls in Settings

Complications

  • Complications now leverage the WidgetKit framework and show an actual image of the Wrist Pipe icon
  • Complications are available in rectangular, circular, and corner variants as well as in the Smart Stack
  • Complications now inherit the accent color of the watch face

Streak Counter

  • Added a streak counter at the bottom of settings list
  • Open Wrist Pipe for enough days in a row and find a surprise!

Wrist Pipe contains an Easter Egg for barbershoppers 👀
