I would like to open an app when I swipe on my clock. Is there specific code that I can use to open an app?

Sure! To load an app, you just call load("appname.app.js"). You can get the JS name by loading the appname.info file and looking inside, but the apps pretty much all use "appname.app.js" as the format of the name so you should be safe.

So the code would look like:
```
Bangle.on('swipe',function() {
  load("appname.app.js");
});
```

Thanks. Now, I can launch apps without the launcher!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
