I've tried to do some searching on this topic, but haven't quite come up with a solid answer.
Is there a way to have multiple custom watch faces on the watch at the same time? I have several which I'd like to switch between on the watch. WHen showing off my new toy though, having to pull out the phone to apply them isn't as 'neat' when showing off the custom watch faces to a friend than just making the switch right on the watch.
A strategy I thought of is to install both Facer and WatchMaker (I currently only have WatchMaker). Then, I could probably hold 2 custom faces since I'd be able to press and hold and go back and forth between the two apps. That should work, right?
Does anyone else know another way I could possibly accomplish having more than one custom watch face on the device at a time?
Thanks,
Zeustopher

Thanks for the link.
So with this app, will it let me choose between multiples right on the watch? From the description of the app it looks like it is designed for you to preselect a few watch faces and then it automatically changes between them after a specified amount of time. Thats not quite what I was looking for, but could still prove to be useful.
Also - as an update from my original post, I've purchased Facer as well and it does now allow me to hold 2 custom watch faces since I can choose a watch face for WatchMaker and a different one for Facer and then switch between them on my watch.
Thanks,
Zeustopher
I too have both face and watch maker.. Switch between these two and moto my design watch face...
Spoilt by the watch faces I have.. I feel the need to keep changing them frequently

Sorry, can't help there. I read an article about the app. Never tested it myself.

How does one upload watch faces permanently as is done with eg the speed watch face made by zuhanden?
If he can do it, there must be a way...
Thanks.
Is it really so difficult to be specific when you post a thread? It's not just you. I've seen so many threads where it's like a portion of the thought that's on your head makes it on the page...and we're left to try and guess just what the heck you're talking about.
Upload permanently? What does that mean? If you upload to any free hosting site, it'll be subject to a DMCA take-down, like FaceRepo or XDA now has been removing faces after getting C&D letters. Or you can pay for your own server, and even then you're liable to C&D letters if your host wants to take action, or to legal consequences if they leave it up to you and you ignore it.
But then again, I might not be even close to what you're asking since you didn't really say it clearly.

Thought it was just me. I appreciate we're multicultural here but come on??
What he means is have the watch face uploaded to the watch to select it in the same way we do the stock faces. When he downloaded the speed watch face from the play store this behaves the same as a stock face. i.e not having to go onto facer and select the watch face, then select facer from the 360
The clock face that you see on the smart watch in fact is not just a wall paper , it is a custom android program that one can customize the contents .

Thanks hmanxx, that makes sense. So no easy way to do that it seems.
To others, yes, I meant upload to watch... guess I would have been in even bigger trouble if I had asked in this forum about how to upload things in a more general sense But point taken, was perfectly clear in my head...
Hello Everyone,
I made my 1st watch face today. It is not perfect, but still looks good. Hence wanted to share it.
Have got both watchmaker and facer files now. But henceforth will make for watchmaker only since it is a much better app than facer.
The zip files have both the versions in them, so extract and choose the correct version.
Thanks
Too bad it doesnt open in watchmaker

The latest Facer update enables "copy protection" so Watchmaker won't import anymore.
Any chance of creating this face - http://www.authenticwatches.com/tag-heuer-kirium-wl1180-ft6000.html#.VKK5xf-CADA?
Thanks.
Hi Bikegeek. Right now I am not taking requests since I am still learning how to make watch faces. I will keep your request in mind once I get good at it. The Tag Heuer F1 was something I was trying to remember my old gimp skills on.
Sorry for now BIkegeek.

As of this version, his "copy protection" is laughable and won't take more than a few seconds for the WatchMaker dev to get past it, if he wants to. The Facer dev is taking the json file and converting it to base64.
For example, the OP's latest watch face's "protected" watchface.json file looks like this if you open it in a text editor:

I'll make sure my next update to my Face Viewer app 1) works with these new files and 2) un-protects them for ya.
To the OP: very nice job on the two you've done so far. Very good eye for detail.
looking good, keep up the good work
My 3rd watch face is up. Check the 1st post for details. I used the badapps.fr version as a source and modified it.
The Helvetica Mondaine is up.
Does anyone know if I can get the #Dd# date displayer to display with two digits. For example : 04 instead of just 4.
Thanks

Hello,
My favorite watch face, Digitalog, was lost after updating my W1 to Wear 2.0.
Here are two screenshots with the watch face:

Is this documented anywhere?
Is there a way to get it back?
Thank you.

Go to facerepo.com and search it. It's there.
Thank you for your reply.
I did find 2 versions there as indicated, however, I would like the original watch face.
I liked it for its minimalism, whereas the versions on facerepo.com are "improved".
Also, they seem to require additional software to run on my watch, but perhaps I misunderstood.
Again, thank you for your suggestion.
Unfortunately, this watch face has been removed in the Android Wear 2.0 update.
There is no way to enable it, unhide or else.
What you could try is find the source code of Android Wear 1.5 and take the .apk file and sideload it.
So it was an Android watch face, not a Huawei one.
Also something I wasn't able to find out.
Thank you.
Any clue as to where I could find AW1.5?

Check Line Watch Face, it's almost the same but with a lot of added Android Wear 2.0 functionality.
Does anyone have GWD watchfaces to share? I haven't really seen any here. Is there another forum where .gwd files are shared?
I have created two watchfaces of a familiar mouse, one dark and one light. (components taken from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/samsung-galaxy-gear/mickey-mouse-watch-t2956617). Nothing real fancy. AOD is same for both watches. Images below.
These watchfaces are complete from my point of view, and I post these without any support. Feel free to use the gwd files to modify them for your own use, but if you do, please post your gwd file here for others.
Looks like you need a password to re build the watch face.

My understanding is that you need to get your own certificate both designer and device to build watchfaces with GWD, but I'll look and see.
I've also noticed the battery indicator doesn't work quite right, but I don't have time to look at that yet.
Here's another repository of lots of watchfaces for use with GWD (and other watchface builders):

If you use wathchmaker, there is a ton of custom designer faces available in a pack, just google it.
Is there a way to extract installed watch face from the watch to edit it?
Hello, I have recently bought a 42mm, and I was really looking forward to use the Analog Utility watch face which i like a lot.
With my surprise i see i couldn't find it, but I have installed it from the Store, the "official" from Samsung. BUT..! it is not possible to customize the complications, and so i have only floor and steps.
Is this watchface available only on the 46mm variant? How can i eventually fix this? Thanks!
I have a normal version (NO LTE) and firmware 4.0.0.1
I don't know about this particular watchface but there are so many other great ones out there. Check out Huck's World on YouTube. He does reviews every day. Most watchfaces he highlights are free for awhile each day.
https://youtu.be/RkDqOuy87cU
If you don't like any that you see in the store, your can always try making your own with Samsung's Gear Watch Designer app or Facer offers lots of watchfaces too. There are others as well.

I know the store it is the same I was just wondering if this watchface comes as default on the 46mm version, because I have seen it. And on my 42mm there isn't, in the one available in the store (which i have downloaded) you cant customize the complications.
There are 2 types of Analog Utility one which is pre-installed and customisable while the other is from store which is called Analog Utility (Gear Sport) and isn't customisable both have subtle differences between them the gear sport version has a ring of smaller lines on the edges and minutes in between and is by default set to yellow colour while the pre-installed version has customisable option and a date with day

...adn that's why I have opened this post I know there are 2, and the one in the store isnt customisable, my question is, why I dont have it on my 42mm? Does it come only on the 46? Or did i miss something?

No it is available on my Galaxy watch 42mm so I am not sure if it's something to do with region or something else but it is available from the start on the 42mm one and can't be deleted

I use a Indian one. I don't no if there is a way to share a pre-installed watch face but if there is one I don't know about it. Maybe try backing up and changing CSC to something else or a simple reset.
