Half Past Fuzzy (Watch Face) for Android
Pretty much what I wanted, although it'd be nice to have a date option. It'd be cool if the amount of adjustable fuzzy was more fine grained on the useful side (IE lowest would be increments of five) similar to the fuzzy clock in KDE systems.
Fuzziness factor extreme. Text too dark in ambient only seen in dark area. Wish there's a slider for that too
So elegant. Would love if 'fuzzier' worked better.
While there's no date display in fuzzy mode, it's still a nice way to read the time when specificity isn't required. When fuzziness is off, it's a plain 24h clock, which is also handy.

Nearly ten years ago, I learned of a project where someone was planning to create a watch which would tell the approximate time. I thought it was a terrific idea and every so often, I'd check the project webpage to see if there was any progress and saw nothing (well, nothing meaningful). A few months ago, I learned of a watch which merely shows the hour hand (and the noon mark on the face is where noon is supposed to be, straight up!). I thought that was really cool, too, but couldn't justify spending a few hundred bucks on a watch that did nothing but tell the (approximate) time. How incredibly lucky I am to live in a world where I have a smartwatch that lets me install a watchface that gives me either of the above two concepts (and thousands more). Are there things I'd like to change about HPF? Sure. Are there other things in my life I'd like to change? Sure. But sometimes I need to be okay with things being the way they are. Heck, if I wait a few minutes, they'll change. :) Thank you, Hactotum, for making this awesome face available to us for free.
Fuzzy implementation needs work. I'm using the "Fuzzier" setting, and at 10:28 the watch was telling me "Quarter past Ten" despite it being much closer to half-past. Similarly, at 11:48 the watch is saying "Noon" even though 11:48 is closer to "Quarter till noon" than to "Noon". Other than this complaint, the watch face is excellent. Wonderful customization options, ability to change font, color, size and wording.
I love the fuzzy time on android wear! now with smaller card previews!
My dutch clock went from "half ?" to kwart over half twaalf" to "kwart voor middernacht". Everything gets messy close to midnight. I'd use it in English if it didnt say "twentyfive past one" instead of something usefull. During the day the dutch one is fine so i use it, I'd give it 5 starts if it would work as advertised.
I love the fuzzy time on android wear! only 3 stars because it uses the large card previews which takes up most of the screen hiding the time and conflicts with the text. I will change it to 5 the ability to use the small previews instead is added.
Fantastic fuzzy clock for the moto360. I do wish the "reveal color" and "animation" features were explained, because I still cant figure it out, and I'm a technical user.
Tried this app yesterday, nice start but does not work. Incorrect time after about 20 mins, resets text size in consistently, and also freezes at some fixed time
Liked better before it became part of android wear. Now it doesn't work half the time. Meaning the settings keep resetting every time I charge my watch

Great amount of customisability and the basic fuzziness setting gives ~5 minute accuracy, which is what I was after. Only issues are cards cover bottom string if it's of a reasonable size and no complications for date. Perhaps allow the display to resize or rearrange if a card is present.
