Personally I can create my own still picture watch faces. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2021-04-12, version 1.6* As much use as a used tampon ### 1/5 — Has in app purchase via Google pay *2021-01-07, version 1.3* Has in app purchase via Google pay Response: every time I chose a watch face, I was presented a Google Pay screen. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Live Photos *2024-08-16, version 2.0* They are cool but only last 2 sec she on watch ### 1/5 — Horrible *2023-09-12, version 2.0* It won’t let me download any of the watch faces ### 1/5 — Why 1 star? *2022-09-04, version 2.0* I thought this app would work. Yes it sends the face to the watch, but there is no animation. I have tried many times. Does it not work on the iPhone series 7 or am I missing something? ### 1/5 — Ad after ad *2022-07-03, version 1.7* I couldn’t download anything! I just kept having to watch ad after ad! Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but I can’t make it work. ### 1/5 — No animation *2022-06-06, version 1.7* Downloaded this app and I tried the few that were offered free. I downloaded and then created a watch face sadly no animation. Definitely not buying if the free ones don’t even work. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — Not live on my watch *2022-03-03, version 1.7* The pics are not live on my watch. ### 1/5 — Same as others, doesn’t animate *2021-12-27, version 1.7* Phone says, create watch face instead of set. Then it freezes. When it works it doesn’t automate. Willing to pay for it but after trying it out, moving on. ### 1/5 — Freezes at creation stage *2021-11-18, version 1.7* There is not “set as watch face.” Rather, it has “create as watch face.” It freezes in that page when I click on it, and I have to close the app to release it. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-10-24, version 1.7* Tried it. Doesn’t work. Move on and skip this one! ### 1/5 — Fake *2021-10-02, version 1.6* Free watch faces are garbage ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — love it *2025-03-25, version 2.0* Nice and good free one's! ### 5/5 — Like everyone else *2022-02-03, version 1.7* It does not work. Guess I will get the I-phone. ### 5/5 — Watch face *2021-07-28, version 1.6* I love this! Thank you for so many cool things to choose from! I will never be bored👍💕💕🔥 ### 5/5 — Great *2021-05-08, version 1.6* Great App ### 5/5 — Just cool! *2021-02-23, version 1.5* I’m trying it out now. These watch faces are absolutely awesome...and those are the free ones. After pay day I need to buy the full version..great work!! ### 5/5 — Фото *2021-01-06, version 1.3* Стильний вигляд для мого гаджета. ### 5/5 — Круто! *2021-01-04, version 1.3* У мене все працює. ### 5/5 — Live Watch Faces *2021-01-02, version 1.3* Cool free watch-faces for my Watch ### 5/5 — Doesn’t animate on the watch *2021-01-01, version 1.3* The selection is great but when I create a watch face for the downloaded live picture it doesn’t stay animated when it becomes a watch face - it’s only stuck on the first frame. Maybe I’m doing it wrong, but even if I am and it is possible it’s poorly communicated how to keep it animated. Update: so it does animate, but it’s so quick that I missed it the first time I lifted my watch up to face me. I was hoping it could be a continuous loop. I’m not sure if this is an app problem or an Apple problem, but it would be nice to have a consistent loop rather than having the animation play once and then stop. ### 2/5 — Do Better *2021-03-05, version 1.6* The images are not live on the I watch --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
