I'm working on redesigning my  Watch app and was frustrated that there isn't a segmented control available for watchOS, so I did a little exploration imagining how a control could work on a tiny screen.

Still not sure if it is a good idea, but think this approach certainly has enough promise to continue exploration.

@_Davidsmith I wonder if a vertical split (instead of horizontal) would achieve similar, while increasing distinction from items below. Likely difficult to fit reasonable sized text that way tho. Interested to see where you take it

@jeremyburge That is the direction I started with, but it felt a bit cramped and wouldn't localize well for languages like German where the strings get wide. I think I prefer horizontal visually, but kinda like this as a fallback.

@_Davidsmith I hear ya. Looks nice there in English with those strings, but I can see how it might not scale all that well
