Today we are going to talk about how to download and install custom watch faces on Apple Watch. With the arrival of WatchOS 7 came an important new feature for the Apple Watch: the ability to share our watch faces.
This has opened the door to applications that compile different dials other than those of the official Apple application. While the Watch app already comes with a good number of dials, it never hurts to expand the possibilities.
Let’s talk about the best option to install dials on the Apple Watch in a matter of seconds. The most positive point is that the dials of these third-party apps are saved in the Apple Watch application itself, saved as custom watch faces.
How to download and install custom watch faces on Apple Watch?
The first thing we have to take into account is that WatchOS 7 allows you to install custom dials made by other users, all of them based on the bases imposed by Apple.
Unlike what happens in smartwatches such as Amazfit, we can not install dials created from scratch. However, the possibilities are extensive, since the dials of the Watch are quite customizable.
There are quite a few apps that try to fulfill this purpose but, after testing each of them, we choose Watchfacely easily for its interface and simplicity. When we open the application we find the most popular watch faces of the week (the most downloaded), we can search for watch faces by tags, authors, styles, save them in favorites, etc.
When we click on any of these watch faces, it will tell us which watches it is compatible with. The only error we have detected is that the list of compatibilities is not the most accurate since, for example, the custom dials of the Apple Watch Series Nike are not compatible with other Apple Watches outside this series. Beyond this, the operation is good and simple.
If the dial has been created using third-party applications, we will see the list of applications included, with the relevant link to the App Store to download it.
If we do not want to download the app, we can install the dial without it and customize it later in the Watch app to fill the gap. To install the watch face, just click on the ‘add’ button: the Watch app will open and we will add the new watch face.
