Ratings and reviews

Been using the app for years now and love it. However, every since the OSWear 4 update (oct. 2023) the 2 data circles in the bottom re-appear after charging, although I don't use them. I have to go into setting, choose no data for each and then they disappear.

Hello, absolutely love the watch face and options. However I am also having issues with the 2 complication circles. I set them (for example, stopwatch and timer), but they do not appear on the watch face. Watch 4 classic and Note 20 ultra, suspect it may be related to a similar issue another user is having?

Very interesting design, I really like this watch face. It makes me look smarter than I am in front of friends :D. The only problems I have is the fact that I can't change temperature units from F to C and there is no option to have the extra data OFF in ambiental. I would really appreciate if you would add those options, that's why I am giving 4 stars.
