Hey everyone, just got my watch and so far its great but im pretty confused as to a few things.
My goal is to have a watch face that changes backgrounds with a selected folder of pictures, thats pretty much it.
There is a stock watch face called photos that does this but they are all landscape default photos, I want to change that but I can not find anything out on this watch face. Cant even find it searching the stock faces that come with android wear and there are no settings for the face on the phone/watch. Im sure its pulling the photos from the storage on the watch, so does anyone know how I can place my photos onto the watch in that folder (there are a LOT of photos).
I know there are a few apps out there that let you create your own watch face but I havent been able to find any with the function of automatically changing the background. Does anyone know of any apps that change the background at set preset amounts of times?
You would think this wouldnt be a hard thing to do but I cant find it or access the phones 4gb storage. Would this be a better question in the general android wear forum?

Hey there,
So i am new to the forums and to the Android world in general, just to get that out of the way .
Well i just copied some of the pictures from my PC to the Phone, but when i use the original Gallery App, it doesnt show the photos in the way i ordered them, meaning;
i have put the images according to my own ordering system into folders
ex; Images > Cars , then inside cars , Audi, BMW ,
Images > Nature , then inside that, Animals, Forest .... etc
when i open it in the gallery app, it shows each folder individually, meaning it brings all the folders (Audi, BMW, Animals, Forest) but doesnt put it in the way i put it on the phone, or the way it is stored if i check the files using a filemanager.
So is this normal, and there is no way to fix it? or perhaps there is another Gallery App that wont do that or so?
hope i could get my msg through.
Thanks for the help in advanced.
FaceDesigner is pretty cool - I used to use a similar app on my Tizen Gear 2 Neo to use some cool backgrounds made into watchfaces with my preferred "template" of where I like the battery, weather, step, etc. widgets.
The problem is I've made a bunch of these watchfaces now and it would give me piece of mind of being able to back up these watchfaces so if I get a new phone or have to reset the watch I don't lose what I've created. I've looked around with root explorer trying to ascertain the directory where these things are stored by FaceDesigner, but haven't found it yet.
Would anyone happen to know what's the best way to save my work? There's not an "export/import" feature either which would have been nice.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
So I have asked this in the Asus Zenwatch 2 forum to with no answers.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It should happen automatically for things like food and landscapes. For people, create folders for persons with their photos so it can learn from it. Eg mum, me, Jane, Mark etc
For me it created most of them auto after 2 days of using the phone
But then it stopped and till now it didn't add any new photo
Also i can't see the role of the fats npu as advertised in this exact scenario ?
Thanks.
I will try as suggested.
Tap album name (eg: Nonamed) and rename
I don't think creating an album and putting the photos of the person you want the AI to learn from is the right thing. We want the AI to scan photos from any folder, and then group faces of the same person together in an pseudo auto-folder filter type thing in Discovery > People, of which you can then go and give that person a name. They are not really folders, but more like search filters.
I have the same problem as above - faces were detected and people "folders" created on the first couple of days using the phone.
Since then, I have added a tonne of old photos stored on my PC from previous phones, but none of the new people in there seem have been detected.
There must be a way to trigger the phone to scan these newly added photos...
Any solution?
RE: Google Photos
I recently got a new budget phone, which I actually like considering the very little $ it cost. It's been flawless except one problem which makes it impossible for me to find any photos. The phone is a Umidigo Power running stock Android 9. The one and only app that is doing what I am about to show is VideoShow which I use frequently and want to keep.
The phone is pulling every single folder which contains a graphic file (hundreds of folders and thousands of thumbnails) and putting them in Google Photos be making it impossible to find my own stuff. I have emailed both phone maker & app maker with no success. Attached is a screenshot of a small percentage of what's showing up.
