Doesn't tell the time

Since the latest watch os update this app no longer tells the time. It gets stuck on a particular time and doesn't update until you open the app on the watch. Before this update it worked perfectly, but is now basically unusable.

Time not updating

Is anyone else having a problem with the time not updating throughout the day? I have to tap on the time for it to update.

Doesn’t work with watch os 6

Love the idea, haven’t used it before watch os 6 but I’m assuming the update broke it. Please fix!

Great app but The time intermittently not updating

I have used this app for months and it’s been great. After iOS 13 and watch 6, the time isn’t updating or syncing the time and I have to periodically tap the app in order for it to refresh and update to current time. Is there going to be an update for stability so that the time is accurate without having to manually refresh the app?

Nice, but seems to get the time wrong

This is a really nice concept and works very well for the most part, but for some reason it seems to occasionally get stuck and tell the wrong time (you have to tap on it and open the app on the watch for it to update again).

And for something that’s sole purpose is to tell the time, to get the time wrong means its hard to give it more than 1 star.

Watch OS6 broke it

Now it doesn’t always update on its own. Sometimes I have to click the complication for the time to update. 5 stars before OS6. Hope you can fix it

uninstalling it

Too much problems, it doesn’t show in the complications list

Can’t see

Can’t see the compilation in the Apple Watch😣

Not working

I can’t get it to work, I tried applying the setup and turn off my watch and iPhone and still doesn’t work

Great app

Great app but wish there was some documentation for getting this app going. Can’t seem to figure it out

So close

I’m looking for an app that displays the digital time in the outer ring of Infograph, but also displays the date in the upper middle. Right now this app displays one or the other on the outer ring, but then it’s just blank underneath. Other complication formats in this app already support primary and secondary data, not sure why the infograph one doesn’t.

Needs a better color picker

Needs a better color picker, I like to input my numbers. Could also be better if the custom formatting codes were inside the app. The code page doesn’t render well for my iPhone XS and it’s hard to see the notes in the table. Fantastic app that does almost everything I want! 👍🏻

Time does not update automatically

I added a star because you took the time to reply; however, what do you mean that the app has to be open? Open where? How do I keep it open so that it serves its intended purpose?

Basically, the time displayed only updates after I open the complication. Opening the complication displays:
Time offset 0h +0m
Note: This app needs to be open for customizations to apply

Am I doing something incorrectly?

Response from developer

No, the app needs to be open for customizations to apply as stated in the app.

Drains my watch battery like crazy! (Updated)

I use about 40% of my Apple Watch (series 4) battery on any given day.

I just drained 80% in six hours. I hardly even used the watch in that time.

And I’m not even using this app for the time, just for the date!

Update after developer response:
I turned off the complication and turned on a complication from a similar app. This immediately solved my battery issues. I didn’t change anything else or even delete it yet.

Response from developer

If you believe the drain to be due to my application, please uninstall and reinstall the application. However, my application adheres to the strict usage guidelines from Apple, with one complication refresh occurring every 30 minutes. Anything more than that and the Watch will automatically shut down the complication and not allow any battery drain.

A great app!

Highly recommend it, saves a few complication spots by combining time and date in one place. Give it a go and enjoy :)

Nice but

Love this app but I’ve noticed that when the date gets into the 20’s it starts to get cut off would love to see a fix for that. I like having the month and day numbers in the complication.

Fantastic

Was quite tricky to get it to work but the creator was fantastic and prompt with his reply’s.. talked me through it and wala got it working... a very simple but effective app.

Update!

I was able to download this app to my phone, but that turns out to be the end of the story. When I click to “install” the app on my watch, nothing happens. It just continues to sit there in the “Available Apps” column. So frustrating!

My first review appears above. How nice it was to have the developer get back to me to help me fix the problem. It turns out that the issue had to do with my WATCH—and not the app. I did what I was told to do, and it worked! Thanks.

Response from developer

Sorry for your troubles, it’s a common problem with the Apple Watch in general. Please uninstall and reinstall the app. Restart both your phone and your watch, and make sure the app is synced to your watch! Thanks.

Way better than better time.Best time app for watch os!!!

Although it only has a few options, it has became the best time or date app for watchOS. 100% reliable. Never stuck in the same day. Compared to the better time, it is way better. Looking forward to the future of this app. Hope the developer will add more options to customize the watch face. Again, GREAT JOB!!!

Time cut off

I love using this complication on my watch so I can know exactly what time it is while still using the info graph face. The only problem I’ve encountered is when using the circular complications in the middle hours that have two digits (10, 11, etc) get cut off by the circle. Hopefully the developer will fix this and maybe just get rid of the circle as it doesn’t serve any informational purpose anyways
