About Material Watch Face

The watch face that should be part of the standard Android Wear distribution! Features weather, date and obviously time, all in gorgeous Material design.

It it optimised for both round and square watches. You can select the temperature unit (C/F) and the color scheme from its configuration panel, accessible from the Android Wear app by clicking on the watch face.

It supports most Material primary (code 500) colors, so you can change it to pink if you feel like a Material Girl!

Location and weather information is only updated every 2 hours, so battery usage should be very minimal.

The date is localised and supports both 12 hour (am/pm) and 24 hour formats.
Weather information is localised in the following languages: bs, de, en, es, fr, it, nl, pl, pt, ru and tet. In other languages, weather will show in English.

NOTE: Please make sure your watch is running Android Wear 5.0.
This Android Wear watch face will only work on Android Wear 5.0 and will therefore not work on most Samsung smart watches!

Make sure you wait for about 30 seconds to a minute after the app is installed before looking for the watch face as it takes a bit of time to install.

GPS and network is required in order to access local weather. The bottom panel will currently be blank if your phone does not have any location information or network access.

To install:
1. After install run Settings / "Resync app" on the Android Wear App on your phone
2. Long press your android wear watch and choose "Material" as you watch face, or select the "Material" face from the Android Wear app on your mobile
3. [Optional] From your mobile, click on the "Material" watch face to configure it. Make sure that the watch face is selected and visible (i.e. the screen is not dimmed/black) when you change settings as the watch needs to be on in order to receive the updated settings

Compatible with Moto360, LG G Watch R, Samsung Gear Live smartwatches (Round and Square)

What are users saying about Material Watch Face

D70%
by D####:

Doesn't reflect screenshots. Everything is misaligned and off center. Looks like crap.

D70%
by D####:

Works great on moto 360 but on asus zenwatch 3 the proportion are off if they fix I would buy again for my new watch

D70%
by D####:

Design could improve center the time its more to the right. digital clock could be in one color More color options Weather without gps

N70%
by N####:

This watch face is great. It's simple, quick to change settings, and easy to read. Only gripe would be no built in step counter or battery amount, but those would probably clutter the screen to much.

D70%
by D####:

I love this watch face... Simple, useful, tasteful. I am only missing one feature, battery percentage, if you could please add this feature, this would be the perfect watch face, for me at least. Also, is there a way to have the background black on dark theme, but with the weather information in color? That would be great as well.

H70%

GPS doesnt work.

Y70%
by Y####:

Just what I want for square Sony watch - simple and clean material design. Like it best on dark setting. Well done.

T70%
by T####:

It would be even better if there was an option to have the weather centered vertically in the colored accent zone.

D70%
by D####:

On the Huawei watch, weather icon is way, way down lower and to the left the of the weather text.

U70%
by U####:

Hands down the best watch face for Android wear... Annoying to see it in my app drawer everyday though... Would easily be a 5/5 if it didn't have a stand alone app to modify the watch face and worked like every other watch face.

G70%
by G####:

But sometimes to get quality you have to put out that money! This watch face is modern, elegant and informative! It's customizable and clean! Numbers are clear and the app does little to nothing to the battery. Highly recommend and look forward to future updates!

U70%
by U####:

Wish this had worked, seems like a decent watch face. Can see the app on my phone, but not in Android Wear, the settings don't stay set in the app, and it doesnt ever shiw up not on the watch. Restarted both, resynced the apps, nothing. Guess that's why there's a refund button. Read some of the previous responses and got it resolved. Very nice watch face. You might want to fix that installation process though.

M70%
by M####:

Really nice-looking watch face, very much worth the price. Minor complaints: it could be a bit more configurable (a more flexible date format setting; choosing whether notifications, weather, etc. are shown in ambient mode; option to show battery percentage), and it includes a launcher icon even though the design guidelines specify that watch faces should not. Overall though, great watch face.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for putting install instructions in 'Read More'!

E70%
by E####:

but doesn't quite look right on the 42 mm Moto 360 2. The weather icon isn't centered with the text.

I love the material design however developer is not good at responding at all.

Does not work/scale properly on Huawei watch. Please refund.

I've tried everything I can think of in the past day to get this face to show on my Urbane with no luck.

Would be a 5 star with a battery indicator, otherwise nice UI

Doesn't display correctly on moto 360 2.

Please fix to fit the screen

J70%
by J####:

It has a lot of weird problems getting instslled, but if it eventually shows up on your watch it is a beautiful watch face.

Q70%
by Q####:

Would love if you could add the option to not display the weather in dimmed mode, and only have the time and date visible. Thanks!

Please allow GPS to work on watch face using battery saving GPS setting. Thank you and keep up the great work!

by Q####:

This is by far the best watch face for battery longevity. All the others kill me LG G watch in 8 hrs. This watch face will last two days. Also the dev is super responsive to emails.

Q70%
by Q####:

This is a great app, it really is, but the weather is way off. At least in my area. Now if He, She or They could integrate the app called Weather Underground into it. It could be awesome. Weather Underground is always right on the nuts, because they use weather stations in your area. Hell. Sometimes in your neighborhood right the street. Swipe to right and get more info. Swipe again and more or just have it open the app. Anyways. Weather Underground is the sht.

Q70%
by Q####:

I just wish the weather is placed a bit higher so that notification like email doesn't cover the weather.

C70%
by C####:

Very nice and clean watch face, weather info is a huge plus, and the ability to choose the theme color is also great. Keep up the good work!

Q70%
by Q####:

Moto, sony, LG need to spend more than 4 seconds on watch face design. Abysmal. They need to hire this guy.

It needs to be more customizable. I would love to be able to see my phone battery and watch battery from watch face. I also wish I could turn weather off if I don't need it, usually I turn my phone/Bluetooth off so my watch is offline most of the day.

by U####:

Great watch face, but the weather won't update sometimes. Needs fixed.

Elegant, simple and readable. My one wish: watch battery level should be an option to display.
