FAQ

What is Orion Watch?

Orion Watch is CircuitMess's newest and most advanced DIY smartwatch: a space-themed smartwatch you build yourself and then program. It handles everyday smartwatch tasks like notifications and music control, and lets you create your own games with AI in VibeBoy.

What will I learn with Orion Watch?

Orion Watch is a hands-on introduction to electronics, coding, and wearable tech. You'll learn what a smartwatch is made of as you build it, then create games with AI in VibeBoy and learn to change the code that controls the display, buttons, LEDs, and vibration motor.

What age range is Orion Watch suitable for?

Orion Watch is recommended for ages 9 and up. The build needs no soldering, and coding with VibeBoy is designed for kids who are just starting out.

Do I need any prior experience to use Orion Watch?

No prior experience in electronics or coding is needed! The illustrated manual guides you through the build step by step, and with VibeBoy you start coding by simply describing your game in plain English.

Do I need to solder anything?

No! Orion Watch comes as a kit you assemble yourself, but everything clicks and screws together, and the screwdriver is in the box. Once it's built, charge it via USB-C, pair it with your phone, and start using it.

Does Orion Watch work with my phone?

Yes. Orion Watch connects over Bluetooth to iPhone directly and to Android through the CircuitMess companion app. You'll get notifications from all your apps, with dedicated icons for favorites like WhatsApp, iMessage, Gmail, Instagram, and Discord, plus music control and a camera remote.

Can I program Orion Watch?

Yes, that's the best part! In VibeBoy, our AI-assisted coding studio, you describe a game in plain English, AI writes the code, and a USB cable sends it to your watch. You can then open the code and edit it yourself to learn how it works.
