Where it separates the time from the background. Some backgrounds are too light and the time blends in with the background making it hard to tell the time. ### 3/5 — Ok but £1.99 seems a little steep tbh *2019-02-11* The free live wallpapers are ok, but the colours are faded the animation only lasts about a second and the choices are limited so far. But it gives a bit of choice so hey, would like the option to extend the time of the animation if possible and for the colours to be more vibrant. ### 4/5 — Good but not 100% working properly *2018-07-22* When I chose to use the live wallpaper, it just stop before the image finished to be in a perfect loop. ### 2/5 — Nice. *2017-10-01, version 2.1* Lots of variety of wallpapers. However, it doesn’t seem as if the wallpapers are compatible with Personal. I cannot have both on my Apple Watch series 3. Either the wallpaper or Personal. I would like to add my Personal with some of your cool wallpapers. ### 4/5 — Love the app *2017-01-25* Just wish I could have more control over search and way more Live Wallpapers ~ that is all ### 3/5 — cool concept. *2017-01-17, version 2.1* it's a really nice well rounded app, the faces could last a bit longer. If they could move the entire time such as the jellyfish and the Mickey Mouse does during a 70 second wait time would be cool. ### 3/5 — The live wallpaper option only works for like a half second. *2016-12-07, version 2.1* The live wallpaper option only works for like a half second. I really expected more from this. ### 1/5 — No loop too fast *2016-10-27* Live wallpaper lasts about 2 secs it's so fast and that's it, there is no setting to change this, I want a refund or advise ### 1/5 — Was Good, Not Now *2016-09-26, version 2.0* App was good (never did get live photos to work), but handled converting family pics to watch faces beautifully. Expecially liked the overlays, which allowed shading and colors to complement the photos. Recently, can only access Photo "Moments" and most of the overlays, which I had and used, are gone from the app. Until a fix happens, don't bother. ### 1/5 — Freezes *2016-09-11, version 1.1* The live animation freezes. The app version hasn't been updated by the developer for a very long time. Please update this app to rectify this issue. Until update is fixed this app is useless. ### 4/5 — Great App *2016-05-11* Good App. Easy to use, works well. ### 1/5 — Poorly designed *2016-04-22* Only 24 live wallpapers I don't know why I paid money for something I can do my self or get a free app to do it ### 4/5 — Fun and easy *2016-04-08, version 1.1* Loving this app! Wish I could change it from digital clock. Needs a bit more instructions for beginners. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY *2023-03-04* Live Photos aren’t even live! ### 1/5 — Waste of money doesn’t work as advertised *2022-10-07, version 2.1* This is the worst app for watch faces ever. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves ### 1/5 — Paying Monthly *2020-11-06, version 2.1* ITS PAYING MONTHLY FOR A FRREAKING WALLPAPER?!?! THIS IS ONE STAR ### 1/5 — MA *2020-03-20, version 2.1* I down loaded a few. I done see it. To put on I -watch. I want my money back. I hope it’s not charging me monthly ### 1/5 — Garbage *2019-09-21, version 2.1* This is a joke. Pay for this? Lol. I’m a chump. ### 1/5 — Awful *2019-08-01, version 2.1* Awful and hard to use. Money wasted!😡 ### 1/5 — Does not work *2017-11-21, version 2.1* Bad ### 1/5 — Need longer "live" image. *2017-04-24, version 2.1* Live image only lasts less that a second and freezes. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — 😡👎🏻 *2017-03-20* Marche pas! ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2017-03-09, version 2.1* I bought this app for the ability to place a small flag where the time would be so that the time shows up on lighter or busier pictures. A week after I bought the app they removed the ability to add the flag. What it does now you really don't need an app for, you can add pictures yourself. Total waste of money. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2022-08-30, version 2.1* Great selections with gorgeous colors!! ### 5/5 — Best for variety and EASE of use.🤩 *2019-12-31, version 2.1* I am new with Apple Watch but this app made it easy to use and the variety of backgrounds is great. ### 5/5 — Love love love this APP *2019-09-07, version 2.1* I love this app more than enough designs to choose from ### 5/5 — D.H *2019-08-28, version 2.1* Puts more BLING on my watch 💍⌚️📲 ### 5/5 — Live Photos *2016-06-25, version 1.1* Please I'm begging u developers look at my review.
