Hey, anyone screw around with the watch face studio?
I was going to make a simple watch face so when I attend mustang shows, I can show it off.
When I save it and try to build it, it says the on display pixel ratio is too high.
How the heck do I disable that? I never use AOD anyway. Just wanting a nice simple face.
Here's what it looks like.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Switch to the Always-On tab on the left hand side panel and hide layers until the on pixel limit is reached, for example in your case you could disable all layers except the hour and minute hand). If you plan to use it personally and don't use AOD at all then you can even disable ALL layers in the Always-on tab
I added an overlay to dim it all as well above post, hope that helps!

This is what i normally do,if i get "pixel ratio to high "warning in Watchface studio
I always have a lot colour options and either set option to black or a dark greyish , when i create a " WFS format " to transfer to my watch .
This "work around " works fine for me and i can then , use any colour option in AOD ,mode
Bottom line ,
Afterwards i still have my other colour options....... to change back to my desired colour option .eg white ..etc etc
See screenshots .
Good luck .

Just to add further to my post above ,
You can also create different styles, with your preferred option included .
So one style you create a watchface with very low pixel ratio or dark watchface ;
You also include your preferred watchface in style
When you ready to send watchface to watch just make sure your "first option "in your watch face is a low pixel ratio /dark .
Then transfer to watch .
Afterwards go to your phone and select in Wearable your prefered options of your choice
see screenshots
good luck
Thanks for the help! That did the trick. After remembering to turn on ADB debugging, finally got it to take the watch face!

Is there an alarm clock app or can one be created where you can set the screen to auto dim when using the alarm clock? I used to have a BB Storm...and the alarm clock had a setting to dim the screen so the background wasnt illuminated but you could still see the time...both the PRE and the EVO dont have this setting...
easy peasy, IF you're using Sense.
1. click on your clock

2. Set your alarm with the alarm button
3. then hit the little laptop looking button
4. and Voila! you should have the below clock on your screen. it orients as well, so use that kickstand for something!!

You can also click the moon star thing and you getting a dimmed down version for night time!
Thanks SilverStone641 ...But I already know how to use the alarm clock...the issue I have is that the background is very bright...lighting up my room making it difficult to sleep...my old Storm had an auto dim feature that would gradually dim the background so it wasnt so bright keeping my room dark...I used to have to cover my PRE because it didnt auto dim either...but then U cant see the time...I figured this could be done with android apps...maybe not???
even with the method that jedwardmiller suggested??

Does setting the screen brightness settings to "auto" help when combined with any of the above suggestions?
This is what I do every night as well. I use the dimmer "nighttime" version so I can look over at it during the night without it being too bright. It even moves around the screen like a screensaver so you don't damage the LCD.

It seems that no matter which one I choose...desk top (laptop pic) or night time (star and moon pic) its still the same brightness...
I got the old Storm out and set up the alarm...it has a dimming feature and the alarm has a "bedside mode" you click...after a few seconds the screen backlighting and the clock numbers dim so that you can still see the time but the illumination of the screen has dimmed so it looks darker...or more "black" and doesnt emitt as much light...
Is there a way to make an alarm app that has such a feature?
Night Clock v0.9 (Freeware)
Requirements: Android 1.5+
Operating System: Android
Overview: Now you can check the current time and the time that you need to wake up comfortably on the middle of the night. Remember that this ain't be a alarm to wake you, but I will add this option later.
Very clean and easy to use interface, with a black background so your eyes won't be hurt when you while you check the time on the middle of the night after suddenly waking up.
If you have set any appointment for the next day and you need to wake up, there is a clock that will tell you the hour that you need to wake.
Made On a Mac
Future Plans:
Alarm option
Countdown to wake up
Change the background color
Put a own background image

Oh! Sorry for the time without a response. I'll make that, it's very simple to center the text. Stay tuned for an update
For those that want the text to be centered, here is the APK.
I like the style that is right now, so this will be an alternative to the Market one, but don't forget to rate it on the Market
Care to add that Update to the OP? Thanks

Red for nightvision?
Just a suggestion, but how about also making a version with black background and medium-dark red numbers?
Red light has a bonus at night being that it doesn't ruin your night vision when in a dark room like white light does.
(ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_vision section: Biological night vision)
Long ago there were apps for Palm devices where it used red so people could flick the device on, look at what they needed with the display red, and it wouldn't strain their eyes or disrupt their night vision.

In CM there is "render effects" where you can switch to red. It effects the whole system and can be used as "night vision".
Hey guys, this is my first phone with amoled screen so my oneplus 8T screen is a little bit yellow with all profile set to cold.. Compared to my old xiaomi note 5 pro! It's YELLOW. Is my unit defective?
Is night mode ie blue filter running?
Not it's not, night mode off / blue light filter off / battery saver off.
Settings is all the way to cold

Do/did you have a ebook reader loaded?
I've seen the google one will screw up these settings until you disable them in the reader.
If you uninstall it before switching them back, they'll stay like that! Had to reinstall that app just to fix the changes it made.
Could be another 3rd party app doing it as well.
Try safe mode if ok there it's almost certainly a 3rd party app responsible.
Clear the system cache on the boot menu; can't hurt, may help.

Just did a full reset, nothing is changed.. So am i the only one having this issue? I've had read the review on gsm arena for the oneplus 8t, he said the screen tend to have "cooler whites" i highly doubt that.. Can you double check your phone please??
My screen brightness jumps from white to yellow/darker color not sure if that's similar issue to you but I still haven't figured my issue out
Mine switches from white to yellow also. No idea why. It does it no matter what I switch up in settings.
It's not bad enough to warrant a defective unit but kinda sucks.

Yeah I have that issue trying to find a way to replicate it
Try going to google home page then go-to oneplus website you will see a quick transition in color change from white to a tint of yellow.
This is the link I used to oneplus website
disable "dynamic color gamut" in Chrome.
chrome://flags and search dynamic color gamut.
Check if your display setting is in natural mode in display>advanced>screen calibration
If it is then change it to advanced> amoled wide gamut

Hi all! As title says, I just wanna know if there is an app to make aod look the same (dimmed possibly) as watchface. I found a really nice watchface but aod is black background with only analog clock, without complications. Is there some way to keep background and complications on a face that doesn't have it from default? Thanks in advance!
Not unless the developer has settings for it, or you have the original files to make it yourself. Turning on a bunch of stuff on AOD kind of defeats the purpose of AOD. It is supposed to be minimal and lacking color to minimize battery use.

That's correct mate. But I found some faces with aod that is like face on, but dimmed. Battery seems fine (with last update i reach 2 days with aod on all time except night).
Will search some similar watchface or try to make a request to the developer, though all his watchfaces are with same kind of aod..
I have the I-Digit watch face on my Watch 4 Classic and if you get the premium version, you can turn off or on any of the items on the watch face AOD. The developer makes many watch faces. You may find one you like there.

It's this one! Nothing special, usually I prefer more complicated faces, but it looks clean and nice. Tried with Mr time, I reached a similar result, but same "problem" with aod..

Wow that's super simple you could create this with galaxy watch creator but AOD has a limitation on colors so no screen burn. Might be why they chose not to keep the colors.

Yes, I've already tried but very limited on aod.. but I have many faces with colored aod, they just move every X minutes to avoid screen burn..

Thank you! I'm using it now, it's working great!
Hi:
It's not available for my GW4, can you post the APK to sideload it?
Hi great watchface, but i can only directly Install it on my GW4 with no configuration possibilites... On my Pixel 7 Pro i get the Info that this app is not compatible with my devices
Can you please also provider it for GW4 and Pixel Phone. Thx
Thank you!!!, It's already available....amazing watch face!!
Thx a lot. It is also working for me now. But If i add the Pulse or Others health indicators it only Shows the Icon (e.g. the Heart) instead of the Pulse. But i gave the permission :-(
It is still not available in Poland
In the play application it does not work ... but through the browser it works
Thanks for the watch face. It's very nice! I have a Samsung Watch 5 (non-pro) and I only see the heart icon, it does not show the frequency itself. Where can I find this "cardiogram" complication? I can't see the screenshot you referred to.
Do you think this watch face will have strong impact on battery life?
Thanks!
Thanks for replying. I will monitor the battery life now that I am using your watchface.
I believe this "cardiogram" is a separate application that needs to be installed. It's not the same as the built-in heart rate app that comes with the watch.
Am I to dumb to find it or how to change the general style (as you said there are multiple watchface styles included)?
(I guess I'm on latest version, installed yesterday and now update showing. I'm from germany)
Strange, I don't have these options. Neither ok watch nor in galaxy wearable app.
This it how it looks for me:

Thanks for the update!
Unfortunately, the heart rate number after choosing the native heart rate is not displayed in real time. I am obligated to tap on it to get a current measurement. It's not working as the heart rate complication on Samsung watch faces that updates the frequency in real-time.
Your theme for smart watch should be in the top!
How to enable seconds in concentric native?
Hello! This is amazing! Since I am quite sad that the original doesn't have the AOD fix.
By any chance, will you add a feature supporting multiple copies of concentric native to the favorite? I am using Bixby routine, and I want to swap to face 1 with a set of complications I use during work and face 2 for commute/exercise.
I know you blow up the font a bit but also by any chance would you also release the font size same as google?
Google's pill shape circle at the mins and second is slightly slimer.
Anyway great job!
I use this as my daily! I love this watch face and haven't found one single thing wrong with it. Your work is outstanding and I want to say thank you!
my favourite watch face for watch 5 pro. took me a long time to find it after I lost it (had to change watches) so maybe make sure it is searchable in PLay as Analog Native? Great work
