You should see my designs!

Have you ever wished you could own many different designer watches? Well, with a little effort, you can place many different custom watch faces on your Apple Watch. There are thousands of participants creating these faces and sharing them for free on a few easy-to-find Facebook groups dedicated to this app. You, yourself, with minimal art skills, can design your own custom watch face with whatever information you want displayed. Weather (current temp, cloudy, etc), activity (steps, heartbeat, movement), battery condition, day, date, time (of course), videos, custom pics (your kids, vacation places, cartoon and movie characters, geometric designs, astrology, etc. can all be inserted into your design. I, myself, have included all of the above into my personal watch faces and had many viewers ask for them to be shared. It took me one (long) evening to be able to do this, and have learned many other techniques by studying other people’s designs. That’s less time than it takes me to learn some of these new games! Reviewers giving less than three stars must be refusing to follow the announcements, FAQs and instructions that are included on the group pages. Ask a question and it is answered almost immediately by many people. This is probably the most fun I have had with an app in a very long time and no annoying ads.

It just keeps getting better

As a long time user (back when it was being beta tested prior to the App Store) I have seen this app grow and grow. Apple really lost out by not allowing users to customize and create faces. Thankfully Clockology has always saved the day. The ability and freedom to create custom watch faces, with images and videos that mean something to the users is really what it means to have a PERSONAL devices. Since using this app I never am tempted to use the stock Apple faces. The developer is always improving and updating the app. This current iteration of Clockology has raised the bar with a new UI and features. I constantly get stopped by strangers now that the app uses Always On and people’s minds are blown that my Apple Watch face looks so much different than theirs. In the movies they say, “This time it’s personal”, with this app is always personal.

Good, but…

This is overall a good app but a little quirky though once you get past that, it’s good. There is one question I would like an answer to: Most of the clock face designers create a space for the weather including conditions and temperatures. These displays are almost always spot on. The temp is accurate and even the weather condition. However, for location, it only reflects the city representing time time zone the wearer is in. So if someone is in San Diego, it will reflect “Los Angeles”. If one is in Kyoto, Japan, it will reflect “Tokyo”. I find this useless as it does not reflect actual location. The designers tell me this is a limitation of Clockology. If the watch faces can reflect/display actual weather conditions, then it is able to pick up real-time information from either detecting the GPS location, or getting it from Apple Watch. Is there any way you can update this app do it can allow displaying actual location? That would make it a 5-Star app. Thank you.

Better with the Facebook group!

I was one of the original Beta Testers for this app, and I can tell you that the Facebook Clockology Fans group is a must-have to get the most satisfaction from the app. You will find 100+ user created watch faces available for free download. If you can imagine it, it’s probably a search away, or a request away. This app is truly the one Apple dropped the ball on. Today, I’m wearing a Ferrari face, tomorrow maybe a Rolex, or Hublot, or how about a Seiko or old school Casio! So many choices, or I can create my own within the app. If you’re tired of the limited faces Apple gives you, then unlock the limitless possibilities with Clockology today!
