Hi,
I’ll start by saying that I’m not a programmer. I only started using WFS because I couldn’t find any watch faces that could meet my needs (lots of data, with not a lot of clutter). I should note that I have a Pixel Watch 2
Anyway, can someone please help me with the following? I’ve tried to upload a picture below, but I’m not sure if it worked.
Issues:
Two complication slots show up on my watch face, but when I test the face on my actual watch the complications are blank. One of the complications is still clickable however it looks like a blank slot on the watch
Notifications - I have a lot of issues with notifications, so I’ll try to stay focused. 1 - I added a green dot that only shows when I have an unread notification; however, this doesn’t seem to work. Is the notification app in Watch Face transferable to Notifications in WearOS?
I have Outlook on my phone, but this is through my phone’s work profile. What I don’t get is that I will get Outlook notifications (emails, etc.) on my watch; however, I can’t access the Outlook app on my phone. Huh? I have the same issue with my outlook calendar “next event” complication.
Do Google Messages not have a complication or tile? Huh? That means if I only want notifications for messages or phone calls, I have to turn off notifications for everything else. There is no prioritization, segmentation, or onscreen preview of notifications or texts. That seems like a huge oversight by Google
Where can I find a list of the most common complications and the data types that each complication offers (icon, title, text, etc.)?
Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. The boxes in red are the complications that I am having issues with.

Hi, what are the complication selected? For the blank ones? (I suspect u used none) or permission not allowed
- long press on the watch… then u click customise to choose complication to used.
3)What do you mean u cant access on your phone?
You mean view the data on the watch?
- issue is its show “no events” even u have a event? In the outlook?

WFS uses exemplar text and icons so you can do looks and positioning they will not show up on the Watch. If you have a default provider then the watch will start with that and you need to customize it as @Knightwing said for it to show.
I added a green dot that only shows when I have an unread notification; however, this doesn’t seem to work.
Wear OS has a built in Notifications dot. I imagine if you turned off the notifications in the settings that the dot you created does not work either. Notifications are set for individual apps.

I think that is an outlook issue or a set up options. There is an outlook app on your watch either delete it or just turn notifications off for it.
If you set messages as the complication it shows a snippet of the message Try that instead of the notifications.

You can only find Mandatory complications they are the default apps in the complications and depend on the complication slot type and the complication type. But it would be nice to have a list.
