Wyze Watch: Face/display enhancements

Wait, so the bigger watch has less options then the smaller one?

The 44 has a different selection of watch faces than the 47 AND you can store up to 6 on the watch instead of just 3. I originally had both sizes, and preferred the 44 because of the much better analog face. But the accelerometer on my 44 died, so now Iā€™m stuck with the 47.

This Wishlist item is apparently not tagged as wyze-watch. If it was, it would be by far the highest vote getter for that tag. How do we get this tagged properly?

Good catch! Thank you for the heads-up! :+1:

Has there been any visibility from Wyze on this? Seems like it would be a great place to invest $250 of the $100,000,000 to get some better watch faces! Itā€™s the biggest thing holding this watch back and should be a simple fix.

Sadly deleting all of the faces creates the best looking one. Just wish it didnā€™t lose all the functionality.

Electron has the most features since it displays all your vital info in one, but to be blunt it looks like a Lisa Frank coloring book from my childhood.

Definitely agree about these issues. It would be nice to have a picture or different watch faces that display steps and at least heart rate. Also the weather sinking part is annoying but the watch itself is made very well except for the glass. Seems to scratch easily. Luckily I found some screen protectors on Amazon. I guess for the price I canā€™t argue too much where can you get a watch for $25 that has a timer alarm clock weather steps and fitness tracker. I can say that the fitness tracker is about .15-.20 miles off per real mile.

So it doesnā€™t seem that we will be getting any watch face support from the company for this [Mod Edit] that we paid $20 for?

I should have invested those $20 in any other tracker from Amazon and I would be much happierā€¦

Want to add a +1 here for more basic/clean watch faces that are easy to read. Iā€™m currently using the default ā€œno customā€ watch face. Wish the font was a bit larger.

Also +1 for removing the leading zero. Thatā€™s just silly.

And a final +1 for the comments that say they are less-than-impressed with the watch face options. I want something I can wear into a meeting at work and not feel silly for having it.

I believe they will never improve the watchfaces on this watch. They will come out with a new watch called 2.0 that will incorporate all the suggestions we make and then turn around and make you buy a new one. Itā€™s the same thing they do with other products. Why should they give you a free update when they can charge you for it by calling it a new ā€œimprovedā€ product.

I suspect youā€™re right, but if thatā€™s the case Iā€™m probably done w/ them. Iā€™ve been a customer since the V2 cameras came out and have a lot of their cameras, sensors, watches, band, and have some night lights on order. Iā€™m getting more disgusted by the lack of support. I donā€™t like having to pay to have person detection on my cameras. I donā€™t like the faces on the watches. It had better have everything you want when you buy their products or youā€™re not getting it and you may very well lose features.

Wyze Watch 47 (and 47c and 44) face enhancements

Iā€™d like an option to add heart rate, steps, calories, and oxygen measurements to the analog clock faces. For me, analog is easier to read when Iā€™m not wearing my glasses, and when I am wearing my glasses Iā€™d like to see where I am in relationship to my daily goals, or what is my current status. Thanks!

Well itā€™s been almost a year they havenā€™t done squat so Iā€™m just going to end my relationship with Wyze, dump the camera dump their exercise band and dump their watch if they donā€™t listen and refuse to communicate then they donā€™t want my money.

Good luck yā€™all.

Iā€™m pretty much to that point. What started out as good cost effective cameras have much less usable as things go on. The watch faces are trash. There isnā€™t a single good looking watch face which has the things I bought a smart watch for. They either donā€™t care about what should be a simple request or they canā€™t even provide us w/ decent faces. Iā€™m not going to dump all the Wyze stuff I have, but itā€™s time to look for other options.

Watch Faces - Needs A Major Update

Just received the 47c. Very nice device. A major miss on Wyzeā€™s product dev team is the selection of watch Faces. The current offering is frankly dismal. Well positioned for the teen crowd at best. I have a $300.00 Fossil I wear to business meetings because there isnā€™t a suitable option on the 47. Donā€™t get me wrong, I purchased and use the 47 for different reasons than the Fossil. I think your missing out on a huge opportunity and demographic. Take 5 minutes and pull down some watch faces from wellā€¦ any other watch (Fossil, Samsung,Apple). It cannot take much to put a watch face together. Give it a go on.

Your expecting too much from Wyze. Judging from the wish lists forums, have not seen any implemented. The only updates are so called bug fixes.

Wyze Watch: Add ability to set time until screen goes dark

The inactivity timer is too short a duration for me. When Iā€™m looking at my sleep stats on my watch, for example, the screen goes dark quickly after no interaction. I also bought a watch for my mother, an older (and slower) woman, and this is a bigger problem for her.

It would be great if we could set the time to be longer. I think the current default is 7.5 seconds. Iā€™d like to be able to change it to 10, 15, or even 20 seconds before the inactivity timer kicks in and the watch goes dark,

I just received a notice from Wyze about their new watch. I wonder if the new one will still have the terrible watch
faces that the original watch has.
