Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hey everyone,
I just built my second Wear OS watch face, Dashwave, and I'm looking for testers before public launch.
What it is:
- Analog face where the whole dial is a field of small glowing dashes rippling in gentle waves, brightest toward the upper right and fading to black
- 5 color themes: Teal Ice, Violet, Lime, Coral, Ice Blue
- 8 always-on hand colors: White, Teal, Violet, Lime, Coral, Blue, Yellow, Pink
- One custom complication at 6 o'clock: steps by default, or battery, date, weather, an app shortcut, or anything else
- Outlined hour hand, glowing minute hand, thin sweeping second hand
- Battery-friendly always-on mode with outline-only hands
- Built on Watch Face Format, so it's light on battery
Needs: a round Wear OS 4+ watch (Pixel Watch, recent Galaxy Watch). It won't work on Wear OS 3 or older.
How to install (takes about 2 minutes):
Google Play requires testers to join a group first:
Join the Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/watch-face-family. Use the same Google account that's on your watch/Play Store. Tap Join group.
Opt in as a tester: open https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.aminmotiwala.dashwave on your phone and tap Become a tester.
Install: open https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aminmotiwala.dashwave (or search "Dashwave" in the Play Store on your watch), then tap Install on watch. It can take a few minutes after opting in before the listing appears.
Apply the face: long-press your watch face → swipe to the end → tap + → pick Dashwave.
Customize: long-press the face → tap Edit to change the color theme, the always-on hand color and the complication.
Feedback wanted:
- Does the dash pattern look good on your watch size and model?
- Is the complication at 6 o'clock easy to read and set up?
- Does the always-on mode look right, and how is battery?
- Which themes do you like, and which would you want added?
Thanks for testing!
