Nice work. A question; what's with the dial on the left screen? Is that some sort of sun dial? 

 

As for some feedback; how will it look if you apply Google's material design? What was your objective when you created this UI?

[00Ghz]

Yes a sun dial of sort. 

 

With material design -> More white, probably some cards, icons that match, some realistic shadows etc.

 

I find metro UI and material design in the same group which has boring, dull, average as key words. I am glad when people don’t follow them precisely, a designer can actually shine and make something new.

 

Wanted to make something non standard. Clients love those usually as long as I just follow some general platform UX guidelines to not confuse the users.

Check.

 

I like the sun dial thingy. Maybe it can be a 'real' sun dial, based on the GPS + compass?

 

Also like the clear sans serif font, all capitals, and simple icons. I do miss something but I can't put my finger on it, yet. Just one more element...

What are these numbers? 13.24

Time. :)

 

Although maybe 13:24 would work better.

I've seen the time displayed with a full stop plenty of times. I think it looks cleaner however I normally see it followed by am/pm. I believe we only started using colons when digital displays replaced mechanical digital displays.

you can’t have AM/PM with the 24h system

Of course but if you weren't doing a 24h system it would work fine as a full stop. '11.43 am' for example.

I think if the 13.24 matched up with the time in the top right of the screen it would help get the idea across better!
