Not working
Cannot get the app to sync with my watch to update with my choices. The Modular watch face either shows the long Better Day version of the day/date, including the well number, etc., or the Apple default. I purchased the app specifically to have it display the Day/Date, *not* Month/Date.
Spent over an hour trying various settings without success. I’ve emailed the developer, so hopefully they’ll respond. In the meantime the app is useless to me.

My old Better Day WF disappeared
When my watch did a software update the only watchface that I liked disappeared. How do I get it back?
It changes with iOS updates
for some unknown reason, the formats selected change with phone updates. I wish they would stay fixed. Issue isn’t app itsel, it’s what updates do to the spp
iOS 8 trouble. Watch complication won’t update
I like the app on my watch, but with ios8 I’m unable to choose which complication shows up on the modular face of my watch. Is there anyway this can be updated / fixed? Thanks
Cannot modify modular display
Since watchOS 8 made a mess of the date complications on the modular display (I.e. removed it), I thought this app would make it right. Not sure if it’s the Better Day or watchOS but the selected display is not shown on the watch. Doesn’t matter what you select, it always show the day of the week, date and the week number. Don’t need the week number. Just a larger day of the week and date.

Frustrated
I can’t get modular with month to show on Iwatch can’t figure it out have often worked on it four months now I always go back and nothing ever changes, it just does not show up on faces it is loaded and showing that it is an active app, I can’t get modular face to show up, very frustrating why doesn’t Apple have one face that shows the month!!!

Expected AM / PM option
It’s nice to be able to display the full date, but I really wanted to show AM / PM for the digital time. This app doesn’t have any time complication; it’s only about formatting of date and day of the week.
Great idea! But there are bugs
The main problem is that this app blinks when watch switches to/from darkened (“always on”) mode. No other app does that so it looks like bug that breaks consistency of the watch face.
The other problem the square infograph and round infograph are messed up in settings. So when you modify square infograph instead the round infograph settings are edited.

Must-have app for Watch
This app is brilliant; lightweight, useful, improves upon a lacking in the OS (without overstepping). The app hasn’t seen an update in a year... I hope it’s not been abandoned.
Until we get an Apple Watch App Store with watch faces in it, custom complications like this are an absolute godsend. If you have an Apple Watch, and have any use for a date-related complication, you owe it to yourself to get this app. It provides for more complication flexibility than any other calendar I have yet seen.
I would like to see even more permutations in variations in the preferences; maybe even “build your own complication“, if that will work technically.

Not sure what happened with the native Cal app but...
Better Day is seriously the Apple Watch complication you wish didn’t have to download. The complication is completely customizable and fits my face style PERFECTLY.
Get this!
Get this!
Good, have some wishes
Much nicer than default date complication, however it semi-frequently stops updating the date. Nothing fixes this until the watch is restarted.
Additionally, it would be great if we could use Unicode Locale Data Markup Language (LDML). For instance, I would prefer to use periods between days and months over slashes.

Nice when it works
I bought this to show the day and date on the activity watch face. But three times in the last month it has stopped updating day and date on the watch face, even though the calendar shows correctly. Incorrect information is worse than no information at all.
Missing a few important formats
This app is missing a few date combinations I would like to see only the day of the week in the modular face, and the day of the week in addition to the day of the month (in place of the name of the month), on the Infograph complication with the day of the week and day of the month(the 4th one down from the top on the circular complication)

Days get out of sync
My Better Day Apple Watch complication says April 29 right now. It’s May 1. Launching the iPhone and Watch apps do not update it. I like the app, but this has happened more than once and it’s kind of a problem when the calendar on my watch (that I paid for...) is off by a day or two.
Best day/date watch complication!
Love the ability to look at months AND next year’s calendar! Seeing previous year is okay as well, but I simply don’t find it necessary.
BD complication will not update to correct date
I got the Better Date to use on my Apple Watch, because it has the month/date/year/week day format that I want. Apple build-in date format is limited and cannot be customized. But the big issue with BD is that the displayed date is not updating as it should be. Like the date it displayed on my Apple Watch currently is off by 12 days. Usually, I can tap the complication into BD and the date will get updated (it should automatically and should not require my tapping). But, today it is not updating even if tapping into BD on my Apple Watch. Time to search for another time app for my watch. One star for the app and adding one more star because I like the display format, but if the dates are wrong and cannot be corrected, then it is useless.

Meh
It sort of helps the cause, but not really. Was hoping to be able to show a mini calendar in a face like Infograph (in the same way Extra Large can). But instead I'm stuck using Extra Large with no additional complications available. At least it's a slight improvement on what Apple gave us, for $600.

Really good
It would be nice to have more choices, especially choices that match the look of other complications. I would also love to see a similar app for other built in complications “Better Battery”, “Better Weather”, etc
A great date compilation
The default date compilation is simple and it works but if you want a different style this is definitely the app to use.
The only thing I wish it did do was have an option to still open the normal event calendar instead of the three year calendar it provides as I would find the event calendar more useful in my situation.

Doesn’t Work
I use this for the analog infograph face, to have the day in the corner. It’s cool that the text can be customized with any color, and I think it’s very convenient. It’s much better than the native calendar. The issue is that the date stops updating after a while, which renders the complication useless. And then the complication will be stuck on the wrong date, with no way to sync it back to normal.
Right now my “date” is just empty dashes, so the app isn’t providing me with any useful information. I don’t think a calendar app should be very difficult to display, considering that my weather complications work just fine, which are far more sophisticated.
I paid money for an app that is essentially useless.
———————
Update: The app was fixed for a couple months and I had no issues. But now it’s back to being stuck on the wrong date and not updating every day.
