The images are too tiny for us to read them Darragh.
Edit: If the Image produced by App Inventor is too big, can you upload it to, say, your google drive or your own website?
To reduce the code, prepare a table with value in column 1 and the other four dependent values in columns 2-5.
Do a table lookup to get what you want to load.
You could do something like this (I used a clock to change the percentage values, and a csv file to contain the colour and percent data)

csv extract:

8,"4281597747,8%"

10,"4281597747,10%"
11,"4294967040,11%"
12,"4294967040,12%"
