1 “chance of rain” option should be a complication option for the “short text” complication and not solely for the “ranged value” complication. The only worth while thing to swap it for is battery and that is often an integrated item of the face design.
2 masking should be available for groups, having to mask individual items makes projects more cumbersome.
3 more metrics should be available for tags. Such as calories, miles or distance, elevation, blood oxygen, blood pressure, workouts and duration, and temperature. Just to name a few. As many health metrics as possible gives the end user access to more of the information that they desire because that is really why most people buy these devices. To track their health data.
4 direct access to create fixed complications for many of the metrics I’ve just listed as well as options like weather, sunrise sunset, feels like temp, calender, inbox, etc. The more we can make these faces function properly immediately after download without customizing, the happier customers will be.
Thank you for your time

The complications availability are determined by the app developer. With the WFS 1.4.13 Beta they have various slots that can accommodate all complications types and you can set your preferred type priority.

I believe this is possible in WFS 1.4.13 Beta I’ll check.

Not all Smart Watches have health but most do. However, what is shared to Health Services is determined by the Health app and permissions granted. My understanding is this will be much better in Wear 4. You can add it as a suggestion.

WFS can only add direct functionality to apps that are sure to be on every Wear OS based smart watch and not limited to Samsung or Pixel watches.
Can you add your requests as a separate request to this topic?

Thank you for your reply Ron, i have downloaded WFS 1.4.13beta but haven’t installed it yet because it is in beta and i’ve been monitoring the chat about that to see if there were any major bugs that would disrupt my creations. But with what you’ve said I may try to install it on my second computer for testing.
That is my advice (and what I have done). Backup any projects before updating them to WFS 1.4.x Beta, There is no way to go back to the 1.3.13 version after you upgrade them.
There is enough good for it to be used for personal use but there are reported glitches Step count stops at 6k and an issue with a ranged value that would give a bad end user experience. A lot of the stuff is for the next release of Wear OS.
