Is there a forum for requesting custom watch faces for a fee? I'm not skilled enough in Watch Face Studio to do it myself but I'd be happy to pay for the service.

Hi all. I have an app on my phone called Loop Habit Tracker that does basically what I'm looking for, but haven't found anything for Wear OS. I would love to find something I can use this way on my watch.

Specifically I want an app that lets you set any generic goal and units and then track a set number of that thing per day, week, etc. allowing you to set a goal or limit.

For a goal example, let's say "Go outside 3 times a day" is your goal. You could track up to 3 and see a chart of your progress.

For a limit example, let's say you want to cut down on caffeine so you only drink up to 5 cups of coffee per week, you could set that as your weekly limit and track whether you are staying under that.

Loop habit tracker shows graphs/charts of this to show how close you are to your goal/limit and that's the kind of thing I'm hoping to find on my watch. Are there any apps that do this? Built-in or third-party?

Ideally, I want one that allows you to set different time spans for the goals like weekly or monthly, but even a daily one I'd be interested to know about.

Thanks.

Hi, I bought last week a Xiaomi watch 2, and I did the upgrade to Wear OS 4. In the battery stats I only see Bluetooth, screen and Wi-Fi but not the apps. Is it normal? I did factory reset but still the same stats.

Thanks!

I'm getting this message when I click on the brightness control on my Pixel Watch 2 with wear OS 5.

I'm currently an iPhone/Apple Watch user thinking about getting a Pixel 9a when that comes out. Which means I would have to switch watches.

I have a hard time using the default workout app on the Apple Watch, due to being visually impaired and the text being kind of small. But I found this 3rd party app called Zones:

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/zones-for-training/id1139688415

You can see in the 3rd pic how huge the heart rate number is, which allows me to easily see it. It also changes colors as you move up/down heart rate zones, which is nice.

Does Wear OS have an app like this?

I just made the jump from Fossil (gen 4,5,6) to Watch 2R with the recent sale and I'm surprised at how good of a watch it is, and clear upgrade to what I've been used to. I knew about the good battery life but the smoothness of how the setup and general interface is so nice. Stock watch faces look good with many having widget customization options, screen is bright and looks sharp without flickering or anything on both full-on and AOD.

I'm a basic Wear OS use that mainly just needs reliable notifications, something that looks good as a watch and uses standard 22mm bands. Wish I made the jump to OnePlus sooner.

I want a reccomendation for a good, preferably free translator app.

I tried "translator" but it allowes to use it like once before needing payment. I don't want to pay unless I know its good.

I'm commonly in a foreign language environment at work so I'd like to use the translate as discretely as possible. Meaning the fewer buttons to press the better.

What are you guys using?

Hello everyone, i recently bought a galaxy watch 7 and I had no previous knowledge about the new wear os 5 watchfaces format ans its limitations, I am a graphic designer with a small background in coding( very small ) I thought of developing unique watch faces for my watch by both coding and visual assets making, and wanted to learn android coding etc.. therefore I am worried that it's maybe not possible to develop watchfaces that way, I tried the samsung's watchface studio tool and it feels too narrow for what I want to do, for example imagine I want to make a watchface that whenever u shake ur watch the number get messed up all over the places and u need to tap it down to restore it, is that possible to do by coding a watchface on an android development tool? And install it on my watch ? I've been trying to read about this but I couldn't find definitive answer, chat gpt telling me the new format is only applicable to what is allowed to be posted on playstore and no more third party stuff, but also on my watch the samsubg default ones have interactive features that are not possible to do on that simple format restrictions so I thought maybe i can program my own and create it from scratch by coding it on the base android level, I would appreciate if someone clears out this doubt, thank you so much!

I have a Fossil Gen 5 from 2019 running Wear OS 2.44 but i recently bought a iPhone 13 and installed the wear OS app. I can connect the watch with the iPhone get i am unable to log in to my google account on the watch, this makes it unable to use apps like Google fit and unable to download new apps because i cant use play store.
When i try to log in on the watch it asks to log in via the app but when i try this it gives a popup that says fault copying accounts to watch.
Maybe its because the watch is running a older version of wear OS?

Can this be fixed so the watch is usable again?

Today has pushed an update on my watch, november security patch it seems for the moment, the notifications issue also seems to be there yet.

When I use Google Maps to navigation and turn on AOD, the watch screen will flicker when it turn into AOD mode, does any one face with this issue?

I've been wanting to get a new Smartwatch to replace my Ticwatch Pro 5 I lost about two months ago

I saw that there's a new Ticwatch and loved my old Pro 5 but also saw that OnePlus has a good competing watch (I love OnePlus phones)

I'm more inclined to getting the Ticwatch because I like the style more than the OP Watch 2 but wanted to hear what thoughts were from people who have either or.

Anybody else experienced this or know how to fix it? They work fine on my Pixel Watch but since I got a Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro, they never auto launch (Autolaunch media controls is enabled in settings) and if I open them manually, it just says 'Nothing playing'

Hello. I've recently purchased a Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 5 Enduro watch, which runs on Wear OS 4.0. When I go to sleep, I need to turn on the night mode so that the watch does not vibrate when my phone is receiving a new notification.

I would like the night mode to turn on/off automatically using a schedule, like it is on my phone (night mode/DND are not synced across the phone and the watch and need to be switched on or off separately).

In my watch settings, I found an option upon Settings - Apps and Notifications - Notifications - Do not disturb - Schedule, and set the Auto On at 21:45 and Auto Off at 07:00. But it seems to have no effect, as night mode is not turned on/ automatically at the set time.

What may the issue be? I would be grateful for any help.

I use the Sleep Cycle app which helps me wake up in my light stage. The app utilises the sensors on the watch for more accurate sleep tracking. I am planning to get a wearOS watch as it is recommended by the app. I wanted to get the Samsung fit 3 but it is not a wearOS watch. What budget wearOS watch should I get? The budget is maximum $200.

i have a pixel 2 watch with the latest wear os and i'm trying to extract an apk for a watchface (xdrip).

success: made myself a developer, successfully paired the watch via pair new device option within wifi debugging menu and entering port and key info in the startup menu of wear installer and wear installer 2 on my android phone. i am also able to extract the apk on the phone.

issue: after successfully extracting apk, wear installer continues to show the "establishing connection with watch" and I'm unable to install the apk. any tips?

Hi everyone,

After the last update of the recent days, my gen 6 displays the not connected icon on display. The fossil app says its not connected too. I deleted the pairing and trywd it again. The odd thing its that the pair process goes fine, with the pair code, etc. Before the update all used to work fine. Any help?

BTW my phone is a Pixel 6 with android 15.

Thanks on avance

I wanna get a smartwatch for tracking my heartrate and other metrics for exercising, and also track my sleeping.

I also wanna get notifications to the watch and music control for my phone.

which is better out of the two for my needs? I'm kinda biased towards the samsung one cause of wearOS and cause it looks better imo but I do know the huawei has a WAY better battery life. There is also the Garmin Forerunner 55 which is in the same price range as those 2 but idk how good it is.

Good morning, I recently acquired a Redmi note 13 pro 5g and a Xiaomi watch 2, everything works rather well (even if I find that the battery of the watch goes down very quickly for an autonomy announced at 60 hours it is 24). On the other hand, the sleep recording made by the watch, which I find in the watch's sleep app, is not transmitted to mi Fitness and I cannot find why. I also find my exercises in mi Fitness but it doesn't count them in the movement and vitality category. Any ideas? THANKS.

I'm looking for an exact match Men's metal band like the official "Pixel Watch Metal Links Band" but for the 41 mm Champagne Gold watch. The only bands I can find are the women's bands that thin out, have extra flourishes or are "Rose Gold". Are there any Masculine Metal or leather bands with the metal accessories (clasp and joint hands on the leather watch or whole band on metal) that match the champagne watch?

Hello,

I’ve been looking for a smart watch under £150 primarily for my parents which has good fitness tracking capabilities and HRV.

I’m not looking for a lot of functionality but just the basic functionality and easier to use. Any recommendations please?

I want to buy a Smartwatch for my mom but I'm on a tight budget. She needs one to use while working, so she can make and answer calls, see WhatsApp notifications. She has a Samsung A35 5G

I found some used options in Swappa under $100 and someone selling a refurbished one on eBay for $65. However I'm not sure if I should buy an used smartwatch or opt for a brand new Xiaomi Redmi Watch 4 (it doesn't have wear os which I don't really like)
