My 6 Favorite Watch Faces for the Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra

My 6 Favorite Watch Faces for the Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra

Make the most of Samsung's large, colorful displays.

Samsung’s latest smartwatches pack bright, colorful AMOLED displays that invite a custom watch face. Whether you’re strapping on a new Galaxy Watch 7 or the 47mm Galaxy Watch Ultra, your device deserves an attractive entry screen. To help, I’ve rounded up the best Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and Ultra watch faces from the Google Play Store. All these developers use Watch Face Format for easy installation and low battery drain.

Complicationist by Time Flies Watch Faces
An upscale digital design that’s sporty but refined, Complicationist by Time Flies Watch Faces is one of my top picks. This hardworking watch face is data-packed yet very neat. The complex design offers room for up to eight complications, so you can stack your display with information that's easy to digest. The versatility is fantastic for users with different priorities. I love quick access to Spotify, upcoming calendar events, a shortcut to recent apps, and a reminder of my sleep.

Complicationist is highly versatile in aesthetics. You can adjust everything from the color scheme to the index style. You can add or remove icons and even choose whether you want the time to have a colon. Complicationist offers a digital watch face that's as attractive as it is customizable.

Arcs N6 by Amoledwatchfaces
Another favorite Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 face is Arcs N6 by Amoledwatchfaces. I could spend endless time coordinating the color schemes of each arc. My only regret is the orange of my watch band that clashes with my ideal palette. Nonetheless, Arcs N6 is highly customizable with plenty of onscreen data points and a very attractive look.

I particularly love that the face offers both an analog clock and a digital watch face. Despite packing in eight customizable complications, it maintains a circular shape for a more traditional impression. It’s classy and easy to read. The arched complications are informative, and the shortcuts are great for quick access. I like to keep my workout and playlists a tap away.

Earth Space & Galaxy ReS25 by Recreative Watch Faces
More of a mood-setting watch face, Earth Space & Galaxy ReS25 by Recreative Watch Faces is perfect for space enthusiasts. ReS25 loads with ten space-themed backgrounds, putting the cosmos on your wrist. The designs are colorful yet calming, effectively utilizing the latest displays.

I love this option for days when I don’t want a lot of data. It’s ideal for when I need access to a few restful apps like mindfulness and Audible. This is my lazy Sunday watch face. Of course, you can also swap in more data-driven selections or task-focused shortcuts. The face supports up to three complications and two shortcuts.

MD323 by Matteo Dini MD
Back to gorgeously designed, customizable data-packed options, MD323 by Matteo Dini MD is my favorite for a modern look. Nearly every aspect of the watch face is changeable, including text colors and overall theme colors. The result is a watch face you can match to any band or outfit.

Aside from the clock, it features three preset shortcuts—date, heart rate, and battery life. The design accommodates three more customizable complications and one additional shortcut. I use these spots for details like the day of the week, weather, and a shortcut to my smart lights. I love the final look and the amount of information fit into this face without overwhelming the display.

Chronos by Luka Kilic Watch Faces
To be fair, this next pick won’t be for everyone. Chronos by Luka Kilic Watch Faces is extremely minimalist, with few elements to display or customize. Yet, the design is perfect for a sophisticated look. With its simplicity, it elevates the idea of an analog watch face.

The watch face features four digital time styles, each with customizable fonts, indexes, and pointers. It supports one simple complication, but I prefer the cleaner look without one. If you want 24-hour formatting instead of 12, that’s also an option. Playing with the 50 available color themes is the most impactful way to personalize this watch face.

Prado 33 by Prado Design Watch Faces
At the opposite end of the design spectrum sits Prado 33 by Prado Design Watch Faces. Essentially a dashboard of stats, it resembles something from a Sci-Fi movie. I love this futuristic look, especially the illustrated human with a heart rate readout. It displays the day, date, time, battery level, and step count and includes room for four complications. Styles and colors are customizable with well-chosen combos like orange and teal.

My favorite part of this face is the linear presentation of data. It feels like a memo of go-to information. I also love the shortcut to make calls from my wrist or access settings. All details are intentional and effective.

Honorable Mention for Free Watch Faces
You don’t have to pay for a great watch face. There are plenty of native options in the Samsung Wearable app. These are battery-efficient and customizable. Beyond built-ins, there are tons of free options in the Google Play Store. The list below represents some of the best picks:
