 +==== Why can't I add custom analog hands, step count, compass, etc ====
 +Apple Watch does not support fully custom watch faces with moving hands or dynamic details such as heart rate, pedometer, compass, etc, but WatchMaker takes it further than any app before it by creating ultra smooth watch face animations from the biggest watch face collection in the world (40,000+ faces!).
 +
 +Once Apple provides full support for custom faces to developers, WatchMaker will add even more options in the future!
