### 4/5 — Does not work - update

*2021-12-25*

I add text change text move the complication and my text never appears on the watch. I see the list of words on the watch when I open the app on my watch. I select what I want and the left indicator turns green and the complication still displays “your own text” and then shows the name of the app. Does not work Update. Took several hours of rebooting phone and watch. Uninstalling and reinstalling and finally it synced and worked

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2021-09-12*

Did what the instructions said. Had both the apps open on the phone and the watch. Tap the text. Nothing. Nada. Sounds cool but I guess it just doesn’t work for me. I feel like the iPhone app doesn’t respond to touch. I pick a saying, but what next? Go back a screen and nothing. Hit the manual sync and nothing. Feel like an idiot
