I can’t really duplicate what you are doing for the Complication boundary but I think this is FAQ 13
In Watch Face Studio, complications must be implemented independently. They cannot be grouped with or be part of another element. Complications can only contain elements within them.
Hi, I can no longer connect to my Fossil Gen 5 (WearOS 2) watch, is it no longer supported? Cannot seem to find information about this, only that WearOS 3 is now targeted (but not the minimum I suppose?)
I tried connecting via Wifi and Bluetooth(with phone connected via USB)
BT is no longer supported because the Wear App is not supported on Wear OS3. If you can connect with WFS 1.3.13 I would back down to that. WFS 1.4.13 is beta and seems to have some issues with the older OS version.
You cannot open any project that was updated by WFS 1.4.13 beta with WFS 1.3.13
End users always think that any flaw is the developers fault. I don’t think there are any Wear 4 devices I’d only publish watch faces built with WFS 1.3.13 for now.
Side note: ratings are used by online stores as a factor for placement of the product including Play Store.
Many thanks to the dev team!
Just one small thing to report, I don’t know if it is a bug or if it is intended.
In version 1.4.13 the screen captures from the preview are saved at 450x450 25ppi instead of 450x450 72ppi. It is not a big thing so if is the new format I will change my Photoshop templates.
Thank you.
Just checking the loop feature. You cannot unloop in this new version. You have to re-upload the image and set up a loop. When applied to watch, loop works only a few minutes after the watch entered AOD and switch to active mode. Loop will work again when you switch to another watch face and switch back. I hope this will be fix soon. Anyway great job WFS team for this new version at least we know what to expect in the near future.
It is probably the watch they tested on was full. It seems like Play Store reviews are a luck of the draw.
Are you using a png optimizer ( such as pngquant) on your images? That really decreases the watch face app size by over a factor over 100.
Good Luck if you have optimized images and still have a large .aab file size let us know.
It’s tempting to update our watch faces but I personally don’t suggest updating for complicated watch faces unless you have a backup that was build with 1.3.13. Once you build it with 1.4.13, you can’t open it with the lower version. You need to rebuild from scratch or park your watch face until fixed version arrived.
There seems to be a delay in updating the AOD with the beta version.
A lot of times, the time tends to be behind 1 or 2 minutes later than the time shown on my phone.
At the very moment, my watch shows 10:23 AM while it is shown 10:24 AM on my phone.
I thought it was my bitmap fonts being too high in pixel size, but that doesn’t seem to fix the problem entirely.
I suppose this is because it’s a beta, but still something worthwhile to mention, since it didn’t happen on 1.3.13.
I got it on your MD 111 last weekend but not on the other MD Watch Faces. I reported this but I think it is not the Galaxy Wearable App but something else that is the issue. Reinstalling the MD11 fixed it. The Next time it comes up I’ll try restarting the Galaxy Watch(x) manager and see if that works.
Always on Display (Ambient Mode) does not have a timetick for seconds (to conserve battery life.) Since it can take a few seconds to transition from Normal mode to AOD mode there is probably about a 5 - 10% chance that this changed to a new minute on your mobile while it was going into AOD and still display the old time.
However it should self correct on the next minute.
If it is correct after the first minute then this is not abnormal. If however it stays 50 seconds behind that would be an issue.
Can you clarify that this time difference remains. WFS version should have nothing to do with that but I can report it if there is an issue.
