About this scene
Open Ocean puts you just above the surface of the sea. Blue waves roll toward you beneath a low sun, with light glinting off every crest and the horizon far in the distance.
Wave height takes the sea from nearly flat to a heavy swell, and Choppiness roughens the surface. It is the most demanding scene in the collection, so on an older device choose Battery saver under More settings if it stutters.
