Hello everyone,
I was not having this problem until yesterday. Whichever watch face I purchase and download, or a free watch face , it is not showing in the android wear app. I have tried this with many different watch faces which earlier used to show. Also when I open the android wear app on my phone, clicking on the more button doesn't take me to the watch faces section but takes me to the play store for some reason. Earlier, clicking more used to take me to the watch faces section and it used to be very easy from there. I'm attaching a screenshot of the android wear app on my phone.
Any help is appreciated.
Good day
Hello,
You should maybe try clearing the cache and data from the Android Wear app on your phone, and reboot both your phone and your watch. Check out if that changes anything.

If you are using watchmaker or facer, you need to switch to that in android wear on the phone first, then pick a watch face
Hi guys
I did a factory reset on the watch and it worked fine. Thank you for your inputs.
Cheers

I have tried everything under to sun to get this app to change faces. Facer is working without a issue. I have cleared my watch and my phone of any files that watchmaker would have been associated with. Then reinstalled now I can change any face that comes with the app like the radar face. But if I try to use any of my faces I have downloaded. The watch just spins and never changes. I have been trying to get this app to work for weeks. I have a Samsung s4 that I'm using my watch with. Everything I have tried to do has worked no issue. I'm willing to try anything to see if I can get it to work. I even bought the prem app
Have you updated to the recent Watchmaker version from Play Store? It went live yesterday I think. It addresses the problem.
Ya thanks for responding. I have been trying to nail this issue for awhile now..
I have the same issue. I have reset my watch, uninstalled and reinstalled watchmaker and still get the continuous circle. I even paid for the app and now I'm quite disappointed.
Any help is appreciated!

Having the same issue. I'm able to see the stock watch face when using Watchmaker, but when i try and change the face to something else nothing happens! This is using Watchmaker Premium as well...
Updated nexus 6 yesterday to 5.1. Now the problem is that when I hit sync apps in android wear app, none of them are going to watch and my only options in watch are the stock watch faces. Did a reset of 360 2xs, re synced android wear app and bluetooth to watch. They are connected as I am getting all the notifications through the 360 but all the watch face apps are not syncing to watch. I forced stopped android wear, cleared cache and data, reset the 360 and resynced to nexus 6 but nothing. For the life of me can not get any of the watch face apps to show in the watch to select from, for example facer and watchmaker do not show in watch.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I would like to know, as well. I am having the same problem with my LG G R
I have found that after a reset of the watch and clearing out the data on the android wear app, repairing to the watch and just waiting a little while it does it. It takes a few minutes sometimes to transfer all the data via BT I'm assuming.
YMMV
My watch was on:
Android Wear version - 1.3.0.2166028
Play Services = 7.8.99
Android OS = 5.1.1
As you can see it was stuck on the old version of Google play services for some reason 7.8.99 for some reason. This is a software glitch that my watch had but my girls moto 360 was just fine.
My watch would glitch out and crash many times a day.
It is the newest update to the android wear app that does not like google play services 7.8.99. Nothing i did could force an update so i had to revert to an earlier version of android wear app and the watch worked just fine.
What finally fixed my watch was the update to 6.0.1 that happened for my watch last night. These are the steps to take to make it happen smoothly.
1: With the newest version of android wear on the phone do a factory reset to your watch.
2: Place the watch on the charger and go through watch setup.
3: Once done syncing take the watch off the charger and connect it to your home wifi. Then go into setting and check for an update.
If no update repeat steps 1-3
4: If the update starts downloading go into the android wear app and disconnect the watch. Turn off bluetooth as well just incase.
(This is because it is the app itself that causes the phone to crash. The watch will then hook up to wifi and finish the download...it will also be faster)
5: Put watch on charger wait a while and the download should be ready. Make sure it is over 80% and start update. I recommend keeping it on the charger.
After its done you should be all good to go. All versions should be up to date. Mine is running great!
Hope this helps everyone!
Doesn't work for me. Tried three times.
I have a different one here, all good but for the android wear app keep crashing while scrolling down in 'watch storage' after the 6.0.1 update.
Factory reset watch, cleaning app cache didn't help.

forget and reset watch. leave the watch on the charger and let it sync everything. it can take a very long time. i recommend doing it while you sleep. just let it sit and it should be fine
No, still doesn't see it.

I cannot get the Google fit watch app to sync with the phone app. My phone app is recording steps and has history but the watch app says all steps and history is 0.
Also I cannot get the Google fit watch app to record a heart rate. I have Google fit setup for all actions in the Android wear app. I've tried restarting the watch, unpair and repair the watch with the phone, uninstall and reinstall the Google fit app on the phone. Nothing works so far....Anyone have any ideas?
Nevermind. I managed to fix this by unpairing the watch from phone from the watch itself and then repairing the watch with phone and it now works.
So, I just got a new phone, Galaxy S8+. After doing the factory reset and pairing with my phone, I'm not seeing any new watch faces or anything appear in the Wear app. No way to even change stock watch faces in the Wear app. The watch is just sitting on the dock with the battery draining. Anyone see this before and have a fix for this? Or does the initial sync just take for-freaking-ever?
