I was used to Watchmaker for some excellent 3rd party watch faces for Android WearOS but was a bit disappointed with the selection there for Apple Watch. After looking around a bit I discovered Clockology and was really impressed with some of the watch faces there.

The only issue many have, is how to install and use it properly because of Apple's idiosyncrasies, so this video does help explain that. One thing to note about the wake screen setting is the menu option has changed, so instead you long press on the watch face and choose Stay Alive.

Unfortunately many watch face groups are on Facebook but you need not login especially for the Hong Kong one, and there is also a sub reddit for Clockology.

scam app…

Well I don't use Apple anymore but yours is a trollish comment unless you at least link to why it is a scam app. At least then educate everyone as to why it is now a scam app. Is there something that has exposed this in a report. Let's at least learn something here then from you.

for starters they didn’t state anywhere that the app’s unusable unless you buy a subscription, which means they’re just trying to aim for a higher rating on the app store by the increased no. of downloads from ppl that didn’t know that.

Secondly, have you even checked the reviews of the app? Check latest ones, not “Most relevant” — majority of those reviews and ratings were left by bots trying to do what I mentioned above

Thanks for qualifying that: Yes, I last used it in 2021 and then most of the faces I really used, I don't recall having paid for. But it does seem it is no longer what it once was. Not so funny that many apps rise in popularity, and then start squeezing their users fort cash.
