About

Faro is a calm dashboard face. A fine ring of ticks runs around the rim, one tick for each day of the current month, and today's tick stands out in the accent color with the day number beside it. The time sits large in the middle of a near-black dial. Under it, a small date pill and three round data pods, each with its own progress ring. A five-segment battery bar closes the dial at the bottom. Every mark on this dial is drawn for this face and belongs to no one else. Features - A month ring at the rim: one tick per day, today marked in the accent color with the day number beside it - Weather above the time: a drawn condition glyph and the temperature, in your units - Big modern digits for the time, with an optional seconds readout - Three round data pods with progress rings, each with 9 sources: steps, heart rate, Body Battery, watch battery, calories, distance, floors, stress — or empty. Empty pods disappear and the rest re-center - A date pill with the weekday and the day number, in three date forms: automatic, day first, or weekday first - A five-segment battery bar that turns red when the battery runs low, with an optional percent readout - 10 color themes: eight dark dials and two light ones - Always-on ready: dim thin digits on a black screen, drawn to keep an AMOLED screen safe - Reads sensors once a minute and redraws from what it kept, to save battery - Weather is polled at most every ten minutes and cached; with no phone nearby the row shows "--", never an error - Four languages: English, Spanish, German and French - 12-hour or 24-hour time, and your temperature and distance units, follow the watch settings The face never shows a blank field: a reading your watch cannot give draws as "--". Every store picture is a real screenshot from the simulator. The face on your wrist looks like the face in these images. Settings Open the Connect app, pick your device, then go to Connect IQ Apps, then Watch Faces, then Faro, then Settings. There you choose the theme, the three data pods, the date format, and the switches for the month ring, the weather, the seconds, the battery bar and the percent readout. Every change applies right away. There is no need to reinstall the face. Support Do you have a question or a problem? Write to [email protected] and I answer. If Faro earns a place on your wrist, a short review helps other people find it — and tell me what you want next, I read every review.
