I have to tap on the time for it to update. ### 4/5 — Great app but The time intermittently not updating *2019-09-26, version 1.3* 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? ### 4/5 — So close *2019-05-30, version 1.3* 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. ### 3/5 — Time does not update automatically *2019-05-03, version 1.3* 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? ### 4/5 — Nice but *2019-04-19, version 1.3* 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. ### 4/5 — Update! *2019-04-11, version 1.3* 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. ### 4/5 — Time cut off *2019-03-17, version 1.3* 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 ### 4/5 — Just what I needed *2019-02-20, version 1.3* I wanted a digital time circular complication for the Infograph watch face since I've been known to misread an analog clock. This app gives me that but with an unfortunate limitation: sometimes the minutes are cut off so I only see the hour. I tried changing the text size on the watch to the smallest setting but that didn't help. I've noticed this happening from h:40-49 and h:51-56. Any suggestions would be welcome. ### 4/5 — Great info graphic complication! *2019-02-08, version 1.3* App is exactly what I needed, especially for the analog watch faces. Some of the widgets could still use a little tweaking and some more customization options, but for the most part this is a great little app that serves its purpose well. ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed! *2019-02-06, version 1.3* Needed an app with a better font to display time in another time zone. Developer added a “offset” within a week of asking. Hard to beat that kind of support! Great app! ### 5/5 — Fix the date issue *2019-02-06, version 1.2* Hello, I LOVE this app but the fact that today (Feb 1) the complication is displaying Feb 32 makes it sort of useless. Any ETA on a fix? Edit: update fixed the issue and changed the rating to reflect that. Amazing work! Keep it up. ### 3/5 — Has potential *2019-02-04, version 1.1* I wanted this app so put the digital time and date in the top corner of my watch face and use the other complication spaces for other informational items (why this isn’t a native option in the Apple Watch I don’t know). The time works fine however the date as of the start of February is now showing 33, 34, etc. fix this and it’s a 5 star app for me. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn't tell the time *2019-10-25, version 1.3* 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. ### 1/5 — Nice, but seems to get the time wrong *2019-09-25, version 1.3* 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. ### 1/5 — Not working *2019-06-19, version 1.3* I can’t get it to work, I tried applying the setup and turn off my watch and iPhone and still doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Drains my watch battery like crazy! (Updated) *2019-04-25, version 1.3* 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. ### 1/5 — Time doesn’t refresh *2019-01-14, version 1.0* Time doesn’t refresh automatically, found myself having to go into the app to get time to update ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work with watch os 6 *2019-09-27, version 1.3* Love the idea, haven’t used it before watch os 6 but I’m assuming the update broke it. Please fix! ### 2/5 — Watch OS6 broke it *2019-09-20, version 1.3* 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 ### 2/5 — uninstalling it *2019-07-11, version 1.3* Too much problems, it doesn’t show in the complications list ### 2/5 — Can’t see *2019-06-21, version 1.3* Can’t see the compilation in the Apple Watch😣 ### 2/5 — Date issue *2019-02-02, version 1.1* I don’t know if this was happening before or after the update but now my time reads as Feb 33 instead of Feb 2...I’ve tried everything to fix it and I can’t figure it out ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app *2019-05-31, version 1.3* Great app but wish there was some documentation for getting this app going. Can’t seem to figure it out ### 5/5 — Needs a better color picker *2019-05-07, version 1.3* 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! 👍🏻 ### 5/5 — A great app! *2019-04-24* Highly recommend it, saves a few complication spots by combining time and date in one place. Give it a go and enjoy :) ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2019-04-15, version 1.3* 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. ### 5/5 — Way better than better time.Best time app for watch os!!! *2019-03-26, version 1.3* 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!!! ### 5/5 — Does what it says on the tin! *2019-02-23, version 1.3* Absolutely perfect for what I needed - adding just the date as a complication on my watch. ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2019-02-12, version 1.3* Exactly what I was looking for. ### 5/5 — This has great potential *2019-02-07, version 1.3* Once it has time zone support it will be a daily use for me! ### 5/5 — This is clever, solid and great *2019-02-07, version 1.3* This looks great in one of the corners of my watch. After I figured out the formula for changing the date format, it looks wonderful. The developer is trying to make this better and better and it is working. Awesome app great complication ### 5/5 — Update fixed my problems! *2019-02-06, version 1.3* The latest update fixed my issues, AND added 24-hour mode, bonus!
