Next, what is much more important, you need to understand where to find and download these beautiful and cool dials. As we have already said, there are plenty of sites on the Internet where you can choose high-quality mobile software for Android Wear.

However, there are not so many specialized ones, that is, in our case, “smart watches”, where you can always find a new screen option for your smart watch, but they do exist.

For example, FaceRepo (facerepo.com) has accumulated a very good catalog. Here you can find screens for square and round watches, there are minimalist designs and screens a la real analog watches, there are even new dials for Android Wear, with which, say, Moto 360 turns into a very nice semblance of fashionable Tag Heuer, or old school, Casio or classic Breitling.

step 4: installing a new watch face on a smartwatch

In general, you have already downloaded the dial and now you want to quickly see it on your own wrist. In fact, one point: in Facer, click the icon with an arrow pointing to a watch, and thus activate the desired dial option.

In a couple of seconds, after your smartwatch is synchronized with your smartphone and the new watch face appears on the device’s screen, the procedure can be considered successfully completed.
