clock face question - Samsung Gear S

I'm using the watcher clock but when I lift my arm to check the time all I see is a plain black face with a digital readout and not the actual watcher style face. I haven't seen an option yet to just see the actual watcher face instead of a plain digital readout. Any ideas?

Go to Settings>Display>Wake-Up Screen. Set to "Last Screen" This will wake the watch to whatever screen you were on last, but the last viewed screen needs to be the watch screen.

Thanks!

minimalist text question

I've downloaded this to use for my home screen clock. I've got it set at the very top just reading the time. Is there a way to get weather being read down the side of the screen? I want it to hug the left side of the screen so it doesn't interfere with my wallpaper. I thought it was as simple as setting it to a 1x3 or something widget as opposed to 3x1, but that doesn't seem to make any difference.

[Q] Clockface development - clock states

Hi,
I am trying to port my Gear 2 watchfaces to Gear S. With some design issues, finally I have a working copy on my Gear S.
But unfortunately (!) , on Gear S, there is a clockface state. According to the design guide, it can either be;
- active state clock
or
- always-on state clock
As my Gear 2 watchfaces don't have this state, when the watch wakes up from blank screen, it shows a simple digital watch instead of my fancy watchface. I couldn't find any information on how to make my watchface always-on. (or creating a always-on state version of my watchface)
Where can I find this information ? Any ideas ?
thx.
Go to Settings>Display>Wake-Up Screen. Set to "Last Screen". This will wake the watch to whatever screen you were on last. If you make sure you always go to your home screen when you're done, the watch will always wake to that screen instead of the simple watch screen.

Clock Query

Hi
Every time I look at my Gear S it shows a digital clock with just basic numbers, if I press the button on the watch it then shows my chosen watch face...
How can I set it so every time I look at my watch it shows my chosen watch face?
Cheers
Lee
You can do this by selecting "last screen" in the display settings under "wake up screen" so if the clock is the last screen shown when the screen switches off, it will show up when you look at your watch.

[Q] Always-on watch faces

Does anyone know if there is anyway to change the always-on watch face?
settings - style - clocks
not sure if thats what your asking for.
No. When you have the alway-on feature activated and the watch times out and instead of going blank, it displays a basic watch face. Each watch face displays its own always-on watch face. Some are digital and some are analog. I don't see anywhere that you can chose or even see what it is going to be until it turns on.
There is no way to change it. Also, 3rd party watch faces will only have the standard digital watch face as it is not possible to create customized always-on watch face via SDK. Only some of the Samsung's watch faces have a nice analog always-on face.

S8 clearview case issue. Won't show notifications.

I need the greatest minds on the forum to figure this out.
With cover closed, clock shows but no notifications.
Additionally, clock randomly moves from normal position to the middle of screen and then sometimes nearer the bottom.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks.

Have you checked the settings under Lock Screen and Always On Display / Notifications. It's not really obvious that there are additional settings available under that if you tap on it. Moving clock presumably is intended to prevent burn in.
Thanks for the reply.
Had the phone for a few days and only noticed the clock moving position since yesterday.
Yeah, checked the 'always on display' and then 'content to show' is home button, clock & information.
Clear view cover is on.
As I said, the clock is showing, just won't display any notifications - which is pretty much the whole point of the thing.
(nevermind, I was wrong about my idea)
