I used this app on Tuesday night. It looks pretty good. It's a dash that has everything you want on it.

It has everything mini apps has, but adds the gear display and pedals display, all in one HUD. So far, I like it.

I've been using PDash, but I might give this a go.

As a tip, you can make the HUD a little bit bigger. You can edit RaceEssentials.py and change this line from 1.0 to scale all text etc up a bit if you want.

scale = 1.2 #Application size multiplier, lower for smaller app, larger for bigger app

This App seems to have fallen over with the AC update, however the is a 1.1 version out that restores it.  (Same link from below)

Just gave it a go.
A lot more info than miniapps but kind of crowded and difficult to see. :-\
I will persist as it may be solved with familiarity. 8)

You can scale it up if you like, to make it bigger. You can edit the .py file to multiply some scale from 1 to 1.2, say.

I can see the text, that's not the problem.
It's a consequence of having all that info in one app, it has to be crowded together.
Like I said, I'll get used to where everything is eventually. ;)

I only see it in the periphery,  familiarity gibes me details, I couldn't tell you all the features,  the main 2 I use are the tyres and times.
