Pixel Watch face - Minimal pixel style watch face

INSTALLATION:
Make sure to install this app on both your phone and on your watch by going to the play store on your watch and searching for it. Unfortunately I cannot auto-install on the watch, there is no way of doing that as far as I know.

I created this open-source watchface to avoid the horrors of the major watch face sharing app that starts with a capital F.

It's a great watch face, it had cool features like automatically opening media player to skip songs and the like as soon as you start and it's simplicity saves on battery life. The only downside is that the weather is showing an (!) as the weather icon and —⁰F as the temperature all the time now after using it for about a week. If this got fixed I would say it is the best watch face out there for sure, but unfortunately I think the weather is a big aspect for many people looking to use this face

Absolutely amazing. Has everything I need and nothing more: time, date, and weather in a battery friendly package. I'll second the request to have the text be thin like ambient mode in active mode. I know a lot of people don't, but I pay for all apps that I like and would for this one, hopefully with the thin text. Thank you.

I would give this watch face 10 stars if I could. It has everything I need in big fonts on a clean, black background. I look forward to a future update that makes each element of the interface clickable to open the related app or setting (like the Pixel At A Glance widget). It's truly hard to believe that Google didn't include a similar design in Wear OS.

Edit March 3, 2020: Looks great and most importantly, long battery life. My last recommendation is a toggle to remove the battery percentage in ambient. Great work! Edit April 19, 2020: your update caused a few problems. The background screen is grey and the clock isn't centred. Edit April 20, 2020 I had to change to another watch face and then change back for the updated change to reflect. Great work again!

I love this watch face! I'd love to have the option to toggle extras like weather and battery indicator however. Also I can't seem to get it to switch to 24 hour even though my watch is set to it. Using a fossil sport. EDIT: Didn't realize about the companion app. All the options are there! Thanks for the assist Dev! 5/5

Great app. Efficient in design and battery. Clear simple fonts and most appropriate info displayed. Used for over a week and seems to be battery efficient. Display is perfect for my use.. clear time, date and icon for weather incl. ambient. I started with free version to evaluate it for my use and since I found it to be well designed, I paid the (small) fee to add the weather and support the designer. Ps I added both pixel watch face apps & both work well. Thank you.

This is the best watch face for wearOS hands down. Looks professional, is very clean, and doesn't clutter your watch. Why isn't this a standard watch face for all wearOS devices? This should definitely be what you are wearing on your wrist. I paid the £1.89 for the weather, as I had it while it was free. The weather is a great add on that gives you more info at a glance and looks nice in ambient mode aswell.

Loving the watch face. Very lightweight and has added about another days use to my watch compared to other faces. One thing I'd love to see is the ability to set the brightness/opacity of the ambient display by time. So during the night it can be dimmed lower than the lowest brightness setting on the watch itself. I did do this with the source code myself by reducing the opacity of on screen elements in ambient mode, but would love to see it integrated so that the latest updates are available.

This is a rare five star review for an app that has in app purchases. They usually only get one star. I originally had an issue and this developer was prompt in his reply and was eager to either fix the issue or refund my purchase. If you want minimalistic this is the face for you. All I really want in a watchface is an elegant design with current weather and current battery; this does the trick and does it very well!

Perfect design, very minimal and Google-ish. I only wish that you could change the settings for it on the watch instead of having to download the app on your phone as well. Also, maybe add a button in the phone app to download on watch

Great watch face! But is there any possibility to get the option to choose between the "new" ambient look and the "old"? With the "old" one all the numbers where bold and much much easier to read in direct bright sunlight... I'm hoping you can implement the option in the app 👍

Works well overall. Only small issue is that occasionally the always on display will show the thick lines instead of the thin ones when selected in the companion app. However, this goes back to normal after interacting with the watch.

Brilliant watch face using it on a ticwatch pro and looks fantastic. Blends seamlessly with OS layout and feel. Well done to the dev team appreciate your work. Update: thanks for the latest update, is it possible on the next update to allow the thin text on the full display as well as the ambient? Looks much more modern.

Viv. K. Mar 13, 2019     

Update: 5 stars, just for the quick reply, dev. Unfortunately, wont be able to use it on my watch I guess. Maybe you could do one thats also compatible with older devices? Is this compatible with the Sony Smartwatch 3? I've installed the app on my phone (OnePlus 6) and it lets me configure the settings, but the watch face doesnt show up on the watch or inside the Wear OS companion app.

love it! it's clean and fast! is there a way to remove the wearOS logo? I would love to have the date there. 1,5 years later I still use it and love it! the WearOS logo can be removed, that makes it minalistic and clean. Thin numbers is also great for me. I don't use the weather but donated, cause its absolutely worth it for me. used it on Emporio Armani SmartWatch3 and now on fossil Carlyle gen5. both black.

Does not install on my watch. Description does not gi ve any installation limitations. Gave 2 stars as picture was good enough to entice me to try it. I have a Sony Smartwatch 3, a bit old I know, but it works well and until someone buys me something newer, I'm stuck with it.

Great watch face, love the cleanliness and configuration options. I would like to see an option to add a notification indicator to the face though, it's a big missing item in general on this face.

And. E. Apr 3, 2019     

Great minimalist watch face, I like being able to glance at my watch and see the outside temperature. Can you make a greyscale ambient mode instead of the number outline, not a fan of the outline digits. All great apart from that!

My favorite watch face. It's similar to the original Android Wear 1.0 digital watch face which I loved for it's simplicity. This is the closest I can get, plus the customizability is fantastic. The only issue I have is when I disable the Android Wear icon the text becomes uncentered.

Mar. E. Dec 16, 2019     

Love the simplicity of this watch face, from the look and feel of the face itself to the simple to understand toggles in the app. One option I would love though would be the option to make the Android Wear logo grayscale, or even have it disappear completely.

Kev. A. Dec 5, 2019     

Love it!! Simple and fantastic looking face. Maybe there is a way to add an option to change and integrate the Google Product Sans font? I'd love to see that in the future. I miss some little tweaks like remove the WearOS icon or change it the "Google colored" assistent dots or something. Adding step counter and heart rate would be nice too. Besides that. My by far most liked face. Didn't use a other face for weeks.

Luc. V. Mar 26, 2019     

Hi. Great watchface. Anyway, I would like to suggest you a new feature. Please add calendar events. I assume the inspiration in creating this come from pixel widget called "at a glance", which is great. But would be grater to add all details that "at a glance" widget offers.

Dan. K. May 11, 2021     

Using this watch face with my Fossil Gen 5 is a dream come true! This watch face extends battery life on the watch and is customizable to just show the minimum of what I need. UPDATE, I am having 1 annoying problem. When I switch to your watch face. The is always shown in the thicker numbering. I have to turn off the thin numbering on your app and turn it back on then the watch face shows the thin numbering which i like. Please fix.

Nice minimalistic watchface. The only thing missing is the way to control ambient mode brightness (preferably separate settings for night/day or setting depending on ambient sensor) - for now ambient mode is a bit to bright on my TicWatch Pro.

Low on resources, good for battery and looks really good. Pretty much perfect for my needs. Definitely worth paying for extra functionality and to support the developer.
