The worst thing about moving from tizen OS to wear OS is the difficulty navigating in finding faces. Can anyone help mevfind Rolex or similar faces in that don't require a monthly subscription like is required with watchmaker? I'm glad to pay.... Just not each and every month.
Thanks
Hi
If you are happy to use Watchmaker app then this guy does really good ones https://www.svartling.net/p/watch-faces.html
Also, pujieblack. /r/PujieBlack is full of them.

Hi,
I am trying to make a Gear 2 watchface with a Disney character on it. I use a drawing of the character on the watchface.
Unfortunately, my app is rejected by Samsung Apps, because of "Copyrighted material".
Is there a workaround for this type of situation ? Shall we never have the chance of seeing such apps on our "Gear 2" ?
In fact, this should not be specific to Gear 2 Apps, I believe, same rule applies to Android apps, at least the apps on Samsung Apps.
What can I do ? Would it matter if I draw it myself and make a serious mistake to say that this is not the correct character ?

Why dont' you make a Disney watch face with Watch Styler and publish it on Gearfaces.com
Gear users can use that watch face with the Watch Styler and/or Multi-Watch Gear app.
there are already a few others:
Mickey watch faces
But my watchface is a standalone app with other features (digital clock and date with weekdays, battery & bluetooth status)
I am also planning to develop it with additional features like weather & location information etc.
so it's not just a design for Watch Styler.

Ok, then I don't know a way to get around the Samsung Copyright police...
Maybe just try again, another tester might not notice it.
My experience is that they don't really have a structured way of testing.
They might find a problem one day, but miss ten others.
But be carefull, if you violate the copyright laws too often they might block/remove your account completly.
Why don't you make you own nice unique design for the watch face, then you'll have your own copyright?
Hi everyone! I am new around here, so I apologize if my manners may be lacking.
Anyway, since the beginning of the year, I have been working on a few watch faces, but while most people seem to be using the development platform that Samsung released at the beginning, I have been entirely coding by hand each face (javascript + HTML5).
It allows me much more freedom in the animation of the watch, so I have been trying to make unusual watch faces.
I have to admit that the design is not there yet, but I'll try to upgrade the look of each watch faces as I go, and depending on requests.
So far, I have mastered the art of coding ambient faces and I have also found ways to add functions. I am currently trying to make a weather function that fetches information online, but I have been rather unsuccessful so far... :/
If you have any interesting animation you would like to see made into a watch, feel free to mention it, I may just make it a reality!
Hi all, bit of a longshot this one, but I thought I would ask as there is so much great information here. I am a type 1 diabetic and use a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) to measure my blood glucose. Currently I can measure this using the NFC capability of my Galaxy S7 Edge, and the Freestyle Libre app.
My question is could this be done with my Gear s3 by maybe sideloading (a phrase I just learned to be honest) one of these apps on the Gear s3?
It would make my life that wee bit easier, and I would be grateful. Thank guys.
You can't side-load a phone app on the watch - you'd need a watch app, someone would likely have to build it for you. Unless the good folks at Freestyle Libre or other developer are willing to create a native S3 watch app, you're likely out of luck.
You might have more luck w/an Android Wear watch, as the integration of the Wear watches and the phone apps may be easier.

Oh ok, thanks for replying, much appreciated. I'm stuck with the Gear for now though.

Liapp
billytrack, I'm trying to port the Liapp application to C++ in Tinzen to works on Gear S3 - but by the time I've dedicated to it I think I'll be delayed. I also want to integrate it with Samsung Health.

Hi all.
So it's been 3 weeks since I bought the gear S3 and I'm loving it.
I bought a couple of watch of faces through the app store and designed a few through gear watch designer so that Samsung has provided.
But the gear watch designer has it limitations. For example I couldn't create a complication for weather or phone battery and the ability to change color when we tap the watch face.
I was wondering if there is any other advanced app apart from the gear watch designer to create watch faces. I saw a few guys had made their own watch faces and published through the Galaxy app store. How are they doing those faces?
Thanks.
Watchmaker Premium. If you look on Google+ there are hundreds if not thousands of faces available. There is a large community of developers offering free faces that post on the Watchmaker community. I've given up on designing my own since you can request a face and if it's not one of the banned faces like Tag Heuer then someone will make it. Also look at Watch Face Pros on Google+, there are a lot of gwd faces there.

Thanks. But isn't Watchmaker Premium an Android application? Is this the app devs used to create watch face in galaxy app store?
I'm looking for a Windows based app because i could use mouse and keyboard for better accuracy. Hope you understood.
Thanks.

If you've got some programming ability, you can do it through Samsung Web Application Development.
Here's a discussion of just adding temperature:
http://developer.samsung.com/forum/...hface/201/305666?boardName=SDK&startId=zzzzz~
If you can wait, supposedly it's coming in the next version of GWD.
It's been discussed for quite a while here and over on the Samsung forums, and the guy that is in charge of the GWD is well aware that people want the ability to do it. Hopefully, it's sooner than later. I don't have the time to learn how to program myself!

I'm about to get a Gear S3 and I've been looking around for watch faces. I really like some of the ones on WatchMaster (not Watchmaker) and wouldn't mind paying for the Premium. But their description sounds a little fishy to me. I feel like they worded it in a way to sound as if they're offering more value than they really are. So has anyone bought the Premium upgrade? If so, I'd appreciate it if you can answer me:
1. Do you get EVERY watch face available or are there still some watch faces that require you to pay extra for?
2. Do you actually get unrestricted ownership of the watch faces (as in, you can use them on your watch for as long as you want with all the features built into the watch face)?
3. How is the performance of these watch faces? Any crashes or lag?
4. I found some nice watch faces here but the ones by "Pluto" like Timeless and Silver Bullet don't appear in the WatchMaster app on my phone. Can they only be bought individually in the Galaxy Store App on the Gear S3? Or can I not see it simply because I don't have the watch connected yet to my phone?
Thanks a lot!
Hello this is WatchMaster.
We would like to thank you for your interest in WatchMaster.
1. If you subscribe all of the watchfaces within WatchMaster are free of download/use, no extra payments will be required.
2. WatchMaster watchfaces are copyrighted to the designer. They are a restricted designs, the design itself belongs to the designer not the buyer.
3. To prevent from screen burn-in effects there can be crashes or bugs. Especially for Gear users, please read the Samsung developer page for detail information.
(developer.samsung.com/gear/design/home-structure/watch-face)
4. Some of the watchfaces we sell in Galaxy App store are in-partnership watchfaces so they won't be released on WatchMaster. In-partnership watchfaces are mostly free to download but other watchfaces will be easier to reach when you purchase Pro for WatchMaster.
Hope this answers your questions if you have any other questions please contact us via email ([email protected]) and we will do our best to help you out.
If you have a PC or a Mac and a touch of artistic ability, you can make your own watch faces for free with Samsung's Gear Watch Designer.
