Change the watch face on your Apple Watch
Personalize your Apple Watch face so it looks the way you want and provides the functions you need. Choose a design, adjust colors and features, then add it to your collection. Switch faces at any time to see the right timekeeping tools—or to shake things up.
The Face Gallery in the Apple Watch app is the easiest way to see all of the available watch faces, customize one, and add it to your collection. But if your iPhone isn’t handy, you can customize the face right on your watch. For more information, see Apple Watch faces and their features.
