Watch Face Cracked
Jordan Tucker
Look for software updates; the set of watch faces that follows might differ from what you see on your Apple Watch. Not all watch faces available in all regions or on all models. To see the latest set of watch faces, make sure your software is up to date.
Tap the outer edge surrounding the main 12-hour dial on this watch face, and it transforms into a chronograph. Record time on scales of 60, 30, 6, or 3 seconds. Or select the tachymeter timescale to measure speed based on time travel over a fixed distance.
This watch face gradually changes to highlight the current hour. The numerals are a custom font designed to fit into the edge of the display and move seamlessly from one hour to the next. Tap the watch face, then turn the Digital Crown to expand numbers other than the current hour.
To start timing, tap the main 12-hour dial to align the marker on the outer edge with the minute hand, turn the Digital Crown to set the length of time, then tap Start. To return the face to its default state, tap the red elapsed time button, then tap Stop.
To set a second time zone, tap the watch face, then turn the Digital Crown to choose a time zone. Tap to confirm your choice and return to the watch face. The red hand shows you the hour in the second time zone.
This classic, type-driven watch face features custom-designed numbers that dynamically change in style and weight when you tap the watch face, then turn the Digital Crown. The numerals rotate to become pills when your wrist is down.
To hear Mickey Mouse or Minnie Mouse tell you the time, open the Settings app on your Apple Watch, tap Clock, then turn on Speak Time. Raise your wrist, then place two fingers on the watch face to hear the time.
Create a Photos face on your Apple Watch: With the current watch face showing, touch and hold the display, swipe all the way to the right, tap the New button (+), then tap Photos. Or, while browsing in the Photos app on your Apple Watch, tap , scroll to the bottom of the screen, then tap Create Face.
Create a Photos face on your iPhone: Open the Photos app on your iPhone, tap a photo, tap , swipe up, then tap Create Watch Face. Choose to create a Portraits watch face, Photos watch face, or a Kaleidoscope watch face.
The Portraits watch face uses photos from the photo library on your iPhone. Layer effects are applied to photos of people, dogs, cats, and landscapes. You can choose from three different type styles and select up to 24 photos. A new photo appears each time you raise your wrist or tap the display.
Hey @caramelleeed . May I welcome You . Have you ever sent Faces to any watch from WFS before . The watch is connected to you Router not the PC . Your PC is connected to the samre WiFi . Do you have the Developer settings on your Watch ? Have you Switched on ADB Debugging ?
I am a Beginner on WFS I have a GW4 and use WFS 1.3.13 . I know that you will be connected soon . I have some notes on my Laptop I can send later . I find I have to check the Wireless connections on my Watch before every session of Uploading . However one the Connection is established it works like a Dream an usualy takes 15 seconds to get on my watch .
What have worked for me is to enable developer options as you need on the watch. Then enter wireless debugging in dev options. Click the add button in run on device in WFS. Then enter your ip of your watch and first port number in WFS. Then click add new device on your watch, and enter the code and second port in WFS. Then click connect in WFS, it should be successful.
Hey, the developers options are obviously on as well as ADB debugging. The issue that i have is that on the watch after I go through the pairing procedure (with the code and port number) it says that my computer is paired but on WFS an error message is sent that tells that there is an issue with the pairing (see my previous post).
On Watch click on settings then developer option
Turn on ADB debugging and ok that
scroll down to where it says WirelessDebugging tap on it
wait few minutes and
write down the IP address followed by :xxxxx the port number
Run on Device
fill in the IP address in the top
Fill in the first port number when you first turned on ADB Wireless deguggin
Fill in the Pairing code
Fill in the last port number when you paired the device
here is more how to do it
Your watch and computer need to be connected to the same WiFi network. Unplug or turn off the Ethernet adaptor if you have your computer connected by Ethernet
You cannot have Firewalls or VPN enabled.
Now try it That should force the add device option for debugging. Remember the first time it takes a while for the connection to happen The run on window will say no devices but once you click OK it pops up without doing a second search
You may have to remove the type complication layouts to force the one you want. But there are several reports of complications not looking the same with Wear 4 as they did in the older Galaxy Watches.
I have the latest iOS update for iPhone and my series 9 Apple Watch is updated to 10.3. The Unity Bloom Watch face does not show up in the watch app on my phone. The single bloom can be added directly to the watch without using the app. So I am missing the multiple bloom on the watch, can do single color only, and missing the entire Bloom faces on the phone.
Ok you kept saying you already had the latest update even after we kept mentioning you needed to update (said you had done everything including 2 iPhone Pro Max devices). Hopefully now you will see the faces.
Brand new watch, worked for a few hours but watch face now stuck on some basic default one and cannot change it. It went wrong while I was updating the watch face with the app. Tried resetting to factory defaults, reinstalled app, still not working.
Hi, actually I worked it out for myself the next day after I posted this problem, no thanks to the truly awful software you get with garmin watches and the lack of any tech support on this forum. Basically the watch goes into sleep mode at the programmed sleep times, in my case 11pm to 645am. So if you update the watch face settings during this period then nothing happens until the next day when it magically fixes itself. The software would me more useful if (1) it told you about the default sleep screen; something that is obvious if you are familiar with garmin watches and (2) the software told you that any watch face updates take effect when the watch returns to active mode in the morning. Anyways, watch appears to be working well for me since I discovered this... will test the golf function on Saturday morning.
THANKS SO MUCH for this info. I've been soooo frustrated not getting the watch face to change. This is only place where your troubleshooting was posted. I was so close to returning this watch. I'll give it another go & hope this solves the problem.
This is close, but my programmed sleep times should be after midnight, but it's still giving the wrong face after 11 pm. So maybe it is a time-based thing, but I can't find a different setting for it.
It won't apply the new watch face during your sleep scheduled hours. I changed my sleep schedule just so I could see if it applied my new watch face and it worked. However when I switched my sleep schedule back, the watch face reverted back to the default face. Has to do with when your watch is in sleep mode. I found this video to keep your new watch face on even when your watch is in sleep mode:
I did end up finding the problem. It was the listed sleep hours. Turns out I accidentally put 12:30pm to 9am instead of 12:30am. So it thought I had the entire afternoon and evening listed as sleep hours.
@marcus, the watch face freezes and will not wake up from dark mode, advance time, battery life or temperature on my specific face. I have to load another watch face that came with the watch and it works fine. If I switch back the Facer Face, it freezes again after some time.
I have a samsung galaxy 42mm & since I have started using Facer, the time keeps freezing. I am having to reboot the watch 4-5 times a day to kick start it again - is there a known bug & will this be fixed??
Hi guys - Thanks again for your patience, this issue is fixed in the latest release and available on the Galaxy store. Here is a link to the announcement post: Facer Tizen 5.1.3 is now available on the Galaxy Apps store
At first I thought it might be a new face causing issues, but the same occurs with all synced Facer watch faces.
They behave fine for several hours then just freeze (functionality and time), even after changing the Facer watch face. The only way to reset them is to choose a Samsung native watch face (i.e. closing the Facer app/watchface) and then re-choose the Facer watchface.
@Facer_Official - I have a user reporting the same, that the time is not updated after coming out of DIM mode and laggy upon waking up. It sounds like they are NOT using AOD and the screen sleeps. The watch is reported to be an S3 frontier like the other reports. It may be a tizen bug. I will ask the user for the facer version on both the phone and watch to ensure there is not a mismatch and report back. I will also test on my S3, I use the AOD and do not have the watch wake, but will test.
Same issue on TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra. When it goes to sleep the time ocasionally freeze. Today freezed on this watch face : B Sharp Watches - B# - Top Drawer - watch face for Apple Watch, Samsung Gear S3, Huawei Watch, and more - Facer
and drain battery about half. AOD is off.
However, when I'm running I have trouble seeing the distance. I appears in the lower left of my watch but it's very small. I've seen a few of the post on the message board that tells you to go to settings-display and then enlarge the font on my watch. I don't have that setting and I can't see where I need an update to the Strava software. I'm currently running Version 1.7.24
Did you receive a solution for this? I just got Strava and have the same issue. Hate that the main display is the time lapse. I need to see the distance I'm running as the biggest display. Hoping there's a way to change the display.
