Watch faces in the press
Our watch faces have been widely featured by the press and by Google. Below you find a list of recent features:
Press features
Forbes, Skymaster
Image feature on LG G Watch R review “Watch Faces are pretty abundant. I paid about $1 for one, which I really like and have used a lot, and there are loads of great free faces too.”´
TechCrunch, Circles watch face
“Is minimalist eye-candy if you’re into classic timepieces. The developers have also come up with a neat swipe interface for a circular display that looks like it would translate well to the Moto 360 when that lands.”
Gizmodo, Ranger
“One of those watch faces that makes your Android Wear timepiece look a lot more expensive than it (probably) is. You can choose the data that appears in the watch dials, and there’s a special night mode included.”
Computer World, Skymaster and World Timer
“Skymaster’s classy design manages to combine the style of a traditional watch with the function of a smartwatch — all without getting overly busy or cluttered, as many watch faces tend to do.”
Lifehacker, Ranger
“One of those watch faces that makes your Android Wear timepiece look a lot more expensive than it (probably) is. You can choose the data that appears in the watch dials, and there’s a special night mode included.”
Android Police, Scuba and Odyssey
“Odyssey is probably my favorite of the premium watch faces that came out with the 5.0 update. It has a subtle phone/watch battery meter, weather, date, and the design looks nice on round and square watches. It’s definitely worth a buck.”
WT Vox, Ranger
“If you have an adventurous spirit and travel a lot, the Ranger Military watch face will be the perfect Android Wear addition for you. It offers the ability to customise many facets to deliver the exact information you need all the time and also has a clever night mode.”
Droid Life, 70s watch face
“This watch face is called 70s, and it is without a doubt, my favorite watch face of the moment. There aren’t a bunch of fluffy options to tweak, it just looks great as an analog watch. It has hour, minute, and second hands, along with right placed day-date ticker. There are no digits on the markers, as this is a true analog experience where you actually have to know how to tell time”
Computer World, Skymaster
“I’m using Skymaster Pilot, which is great — I love that it shows the weather in a cool mechanical watch-feeling complication and I was able to customize it with my initials. “
green bot, Skymaster
Image feature on watch face interactivity. “The other hidden feature is an interactive mode that allows you to touch the watch face without triggering the default behavior of switching to the app list. The idea is developers can work in custom features to go with this action.”
Mobilegeeks, Scuba and Odyssey
“Koennte auch ne Taucheruhr von Hanowa sein bzw. eine dieser Schweizer Militaer-Uhren. Sehr schlicht, aber auch sehr gut aussehen auf der LG G Watch R. Mit voller Helligkeit komme ich damit locker durch den ganzen Tag und hab um die 18h Akkulaufzeit messen koennen.”
