Freshen up your Apple Watch faces with Facer

The choices are almost limitless
That iThingy You're Wearing
March 4, 2016

I’ve been using the Utility face on my Apple Watch for months, simply because I couldn’t find a good way to customize my wearable device to my liking. Then I found an app that provides me with a constant stream of custom Watch faces, including images from my Instagram and Tumblr feeds. That app is Facer – Watch Faces & Customization Platform for Apple Watch.

A whole community of Watch faces

At facer.io, you can create your own Watch face, and the Facer app allows you to have the whole community of images on your Apple Watch.

Not only can you download other people's images for your Apple Watch, but you can create your own with ease.

Facer offers many themes to choose from. Quite a few are included for free, but some require in-app purchases. For example, the licensed characters from Popeye, Garfield, and Betty Boop require an in-app purchase, as does integration with your Tumblr feed. Still, Facer offers you quite a bit to choose from.

I love being able to see my Instagram feed on my wrist, for example, and the Facer Community theme offers a huge variety of different creations. If you are a fan of the cosmos, two amazing themes are included for free to enjoy on your wrist, and the paid Constellations category will help you learn the formations of stars as we see them.
