5★Functional and stunning. This one has a clean, classy feel to it. Dimming the LCD brightness down gives it a subtle feel and most of the colors have options that go well together. I've really enjoyed using this face for the past month or so, which is a lot longer than I usually stick with the same thing before changing it up. Keep up the good work!

4★Work good but battery meter is buggy. If you edit it customize the watch face, then the battery meter will break and show 100% all the time. Need to restart the watch to fix. Doesn't happen with the battery complication, only the built in meter. Doesn't happen with other watch faces from other developers.

5★Great service with quick and knowledgeable help. I have tried a lot of watch faces, being an Early Adopter, and these all hit the mark. The styles and designs all act as you'd expect but look even better IRL. I fully expect to start working my way through the entire catalogue - one thing that was an excellent touch (apart from the BOGO offer) is that the app has a welcome link to showcase all of the different designs... The only negative is that there are too many to choose from, even with BOGO!

2★Touching the steps area on top opens the Heart app! Touching the digital watch doesn't do anything; you can't assign something like an alarm or anything. The choice of battery indicator colors is strange and irrelevant. A small seconds counter on the digital area would make it more interesting. Customization ->day and customization->color don't have grey color to choose from. Otherwise, it's good.

5★Attractive analog/digital hybrid watchface - I think the author has a beautiful collection of faces in the Play Store. UPDATE: I was not entirely happy with this product until yesterday, when my watch updated to Wear OS 6. Before that, the regular face worked well but the AOD (always-on display) did not display and update correctly. Now it all works well. If you use AOD, check your watch software version before making a buy decision.
