So I have asked this in the Asus Zenwatch 2 forum to with no answers.
My goal is to have a watch face that changes backgrounds with a selected folder of pictures, thats pretty much it. Anything extra like showing battery and weather would be great.
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?

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.
Hey everyone, just got my watch and so far its great but im pretty confused as to a few things.

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?
Bought a new toy today. Was looking for a nice watch to replace pebble. Mainly I need good notification handling, long battery life and always-on screen.
Now this is a nice device, however it is heavily focused on fitness. Problem is, I don't care about that a tiny bit and this is really irritating.
So, is it possible to completely disable sports part and only use it as notification device?
Let's start about watch faces. Is there a face without symbols of foot and heart, but showing total notification count instead?
Good question .... indeed for me the same "notification" priority instead of "sports" ....
Have you seen "Watch Droid Assistant"? It does enhanced notifications and lets you read past notifications, so you may want that.
You can also turn off the widgets for sports stuff in the phone app.
Not sure about having a notification count on the watchface, but you can get loads of custom faces online (lots here https://sawfb.fabiobarbon.click/ ) so you can have one that's less sport focused if you like. Just plug the watch into a PC and drop the watchfaces into the WatchFaces folder.
I should mention that I also just got this watch today so I am still learning, but it seems good so far.
I'm looking for the exact same thing! I have a personal phone and a company phone. I bought this watch only for the company phone so that way I can quickly get alerts about calls, texts and emails. But, I don't want any of the sports/health/fit/whateveryoucallit features on the phone.
Anyone been able to accomplish this? I checked every setting I could find and disable it, but I was hoping there would be a hard switch for it.
There is no way nor need to disable the fitness features, simply make sure continuous heart rate isn't enabled, as well as "Activity reminders" in Settings, then if you don't start to record an activity it will oy register steps, what cannot be disabled and doesn't affect anything else.
The best experience for notifications on Pace/Stratos/Verge is AmazMod + SuperFit or GreatFit.
If you don't want or can't install Amazfit Watch app on your (Android) phone, then you can try WatchDroid, a freemium app that can send notifications to these watches after you install the companion service app on watch itself too.
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.
