The phone apps on iOS and Android are free but need to be unlocked with a purchase ($3.99) to send custom watch faces to your watch. The standalone WatchMaker app on your watch is always free, so you never need to pay twice!

The instructions to install the free standalone WatchMaker app on your watch vary depending on which watch you have :

Android Wear Watch

  • ASUS ZenWatch (1/2/3)
  • Casio Smart Outdoor/Pro Trek
  • Fossil Q Founder/Marshal/Wander
  • Huawei Watch
  • LG G Watch
  • LG G Watch R
  • LG Watch Sport
  • LG Watch Style
  • LG Watch Urbane (1/2)
  • Michael Kors Access
  • Motorola 360 (1/2/womens/sport)
  • New Balance RunIQ
  • Nixon Mission
  • Polar M600
  • Samsung Gear Live
  • Sony Smartwatch 3
  • TAG Heuer Connected

You can check which version of Android Wear you have by clicking Watch Settings > System > About > Versions

Android Wear 2.0

  • If you are lucky enough to have Android Wear 2.0 on your watch (check in Settings > About), this is very easy!
  • Just swipe right on your watch until you see Add more watch faces
  • Scroll down to Get more watch faces and select WatchMaker Watch Face (don't select the premium version - remember the watch app should always be free!)
  • Hit install and you are done!

below version is 4.2.7 including new CloudSync! https://s3.amazonaws.com/watchfrenzy/apk/watchmaker_aw.apk

The companion app for your Gear S2/S3 is available and can be downloaded right now from your iPhone / iPad :

  • Make sure bluetooth is turned on for both your phone and smartwatch and connect your Gear device
  • In the Samsung Gear S app, click more “View More Apps” and search for WatchMaker

  • Welcome to WatchMaker! Enjoy our beautiful watchfaces.
