Hi everyone!
I would like to add a background image to an existing watch face. I like the "Fitness Dashboard" from Samsung but the black background is boring.
Unfortunately the background style I selected only works on the tiles but not on the watch face itself.
Is there a way to edit the watch face somehow? I have the Watch Studio and Tizen Studio installed, is there some way I can pull the watch face from the watch and edit it?
Thanks for the help!
Nope, sadly theres no such way to do that.

Sorry, figured it was easy enough to download.
Here are the animated gifs I used.
Note, these are WatchMaker faces. not sure if Facer can take an animation.
Here are some others if anyone wants to make some other faces with them.
These are not of my creation. There was a holo foil cover some time back and they offered a sample animated gif to get an idea of what they looked like.
Cheers.
Wait...I can use gif files in watchmaker ?!
Yes I have already made over 20 gif inspired faces with WatchMaker. check my other thread. You can export them too like this :
Yeah,
Once you upload an animated gif as a background image on the watch face creator app, it splits out the individual frames and sets a transition speed. It does this automatically.
Very cool!
Looks like I will have to buy the app...thanks guys! I got a really good gif I want for my watch
I was only using facer but your description of gif abilities of Watchmaker is making me reconsider.... looks really good to have gifs on moto 360
I have been actively using both, and I still think Facer is the better product. If you can wait a couple of weeks, the developer is about to drop a major update that will undoubtedly add GIF support and other cool stuff.
The only reason I ever use WatchMaker is for the GIF support. As soon as Facer adds it, I'm back on it permanently.
Facer has a long way to go now to catch up. Tasker integration, gifs, text effects, calendars these should be part of the os... at least they have them in watchmaker
At some point this evening, all the preinstalled watchfaces got updated with a Christmas theme option
I am thinking that made some people very angry. Didn't bother me but motivated me to figure out how to build a minimalist watch face via facer.
In the ZenWatch Manager or the AndroidWear Manager, you can change the face colors back to whatever.
Does anyone know how I can remove the faces that WatchMaker shows *on the android wear device*, as I have tons on there now, but i have deleted the matching faces from the app on my phone.
It annoys me having to scroll through so many on the wear device.
There doesn't seem to be any way to Clear Data on Android Wear through the Apps section of the app..
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the phone application but the faces come back when the Wear app re-syncs over to the watch.
Short of Resetting the watch I cant see a way to fix it!
Swipe up on watch face in watch selector
I have no idea how I didn't spot that myself, but thank you
Another way is an app Apollo wear inspector it shows everything on your watch, ie browsers etc and you can take them off from the App. I prefer this as I can see on a page what styles I've got on ATM and if there are too many say divers I can thin them out.

Suggestions for improving software for Huawei Watch GT 2
1 : Sync all the contacts on the phone , not just 10 contacts
2 : If the phone is in silent mode, the watch should be in silent mode also
3 : Add an application to record audio clips through the built-in microphone with the watch
4 : When the Bluetooth connection with the watch is lost , there will be alert for that by vibration and msg , and there should also be an alert when the Bluetooth connection returns again
5 : Show full notification text not part of it
thanks
Re: Suggestions for improving software for Huawei Watch GT 2
I think you're ideas are great so I've put my thoughts on each one. Hopefully more people will comment!
1 : Sync all the contacts on the phone , not just 10 contacts
Great idea but remember smart watches don't have huge storage. We have 2.1gb free I believe on initial startup.
2 : If the phone is in silent mode, the watch should be in silent mode also
Absolutely agree...
3 : Add an application to record audio clips through the built-in microphone with the watch
Again need to think of memory restraints, but a low bit rate 'voice notes' facility would be cool.
4 : When the Bluetooth connection with the watch is lost , there will be alert for that by vibration and msg , and there should also be an alert when the Bluetooth connection returns again
Agreed. Goodness knows why there isn't already!
5 : Show full notification text not part of it
Agreed. Plus the ability to reply maybe? I loved this in my Huawei Watch 1.
6. I'd also add... Bring NFC to GT2's outside China! I'm guessing it's the same hardware, just disabled in the OS!
7. Add SPO2 (oxygen saturation of the blood) - as this is mentioned as an option in at least one how to for the watch... Is it China only again?
Let's hope Huawei monitors this forum and gets some ideas to improve Lite OS further.

Im really missing the "next calendar appointment" feature on this watch. I had the vector, that had a "calendar app" and an upcoming event widget on the watchface of the Vector Luna. Just bought a GT2 and didn't realise that I actually will start to miss the calendar appointment info so much heads up Huawei!
Otherwise its a suitable upgrade for me from Luna (with broken screen)
Agree with your proposals,
from my side it would also be great if we could have an airplane mode
- Ability to set custom watch faces with standard app
- Ability to access details on screens accessed with left/right slides
- Ability to have lamp torch light progressive to avoid dazzling
- Ability to have more video controls with chromecast/netflix

Great ideas.
Hopefully the custom faces will be with us very soon once the Chinese beta closes. [emoji1696]

And also :
- show full sender on notifications
- show smileys (and photos?) in notifications
- avoid duplicates in notifications (in whatsapp for instance)
- ability to delete notification from summary without going to details
- navigate directly through notifications details without returning to summaries
- use more space for titles in sound/video control
- ability to customize main menu entries, and set others in a folder
adding an interval timer (high interval, low interval, warm up, cool down, number of reps or infinite reps)
1. CUSTOM WATCH FACES!!!!
2. In addition to silent as already mentioned, sync Do Not Disturb settings from phone to watch
3. Ability to set function to buttons double-click (Eg. I set down button to flashlight, but this isn't of much use during the day)
4. Ability to define your own timeout for the watchface to turn off after.
5. "Shake wrist to wake screen" as well as "Raise wrist" option...If both are set, then need to do both
Why here and not on some Huawei support forum?
If someone knows an email or any contact channel for Huawei Technical Support
please send these suggestions.
Agree totally to “gaminox”

Because you get automated or pre written answers and Huawei never does anything about solving big issues. Mine is that there is no way of shutting off Bluetooth.
Show maps and load/follow tracks in the whatch with the map in the screen.
Add more map layers in the huawei health app.
Hi, I'm creating watch faces. There are two circles in the background. In one of these circles I want the client to be able to put a picture of his gallery.
The idea is: click on this circle, gallery opens and you choose the photo you want. You select it and it is put in this circle.
How do I do this?
