Apple Watch(Apple Watch i)是可穿戴技术的缩影。它可以拨打和接听电话、跟踪您的生物特征数据、用作Fitbit等等。在最新型号中,Apple Watch甚至可以作为医疗设备监测您的血压和心率,并在您有危险时提醒您的医生。
但对于那些关心美学的人来说,表盘的众多选择才是该设备真正闪耀的地方。默认情况下,您可以从多个Apple Watch 表盘(Apple Watch)中进行选择,包括Modular、Siri、Activity Digital、Breathe、Kaleidoscope、Vapor、Mickey Mouse和Utility表盘。
所有这些都经过精心设计,几乎适用于任何人,但如果您想脱颖而出,请选择定制的Apple表盘。您可以从照片库中选择图像作为Apple Watch的背景,但目前您无法下载真正的“自定义”面孔——但您可以找到很棒的图像作为背景,并通过添加“并发症(Complications)”来创建您的自定义面孔。 ”
“复杂功能”是您可以添加到表盘的一项特殊功能,例如股票价格行情或来自其他应用程序的信息。选择您一眼就能看到的信息的能力是您如何使您的表盘与其他人的表盘不同。关键是知道在哪里寻找背景。
在哪里获得定制 Apple Watch 表盘的并发症(Where To Get Complications for a Custom Apple Watch Face)
许多第三方应用程序都带有Complication,您可以稍后将其添加到Apple Watch中。例如,iTranslate 带有一个您可以添加的复杂(Complication)功能,它会根据您的GPS位置自动确定当地语言,并全天翻译有用的短语。您只需从那里点击复杂(Complication)功能即可进入全屏模式并说出您需要翻译成的短语。
很难获得提供复杂功能的第三方应用程序的完整列表。但是,当应用程序确实提供了复杂功能时,它会自动出现在您的潜在选项列表中。您可以通过启动Watch(Watch)应用并点击我的面孔(My Faces)下方的并发症(Complications)来查看您当前拥有的那些。
制表师(WatchMaker)(WatchMaker)
WatchMaker是一款声称拥有超过 100,000 种不同表盘和指针可供选择的应用程序。它使用Live Photos功能为Apple Watch创建动画面孔,但在应用程序内部指出,Apple不支持模拟指针、天气和电池功能。
需要注意的一点:该应用程序可以免费下载,但设置过程会提示您以每周 3.99 美元的价格注册他们的高级服务。绕过它的方法是右上角的一个小“X”。
该应用程序提供了对许多免费背景和表盘构建器的访问,但它在推动其高级服务方面非常积极 - 以至于它几乎无法使用。如果您致力于探索创建自定义Apple Watch 表盘(Apple Watch)的每一个潜在途径,这是一种选择,但使用它需要您自担风险。
Faces 是另一个可以访问各种创意背景的应用程序。像WatchMaker一样,它充斥着广告。有数十种类别可供选择,但其中绝大多数都需要您订阅高级服务才能访问图像。但是,每个类别都提供一到两个免费背景。
与Facer(Facer)等应用程序不同,该应用程序无需任何不必要的步骤即可运行。
- 您启动它,选择您想要的图像,然后单击创建表盘(Create a watch face)。
- 忽略广告,等到您可以点击左上角的“X”。
- 点击屏幕上的手表(Watch)图标,然后从出现的菜单中选择创建表盘。(Create Watch Face)然后,您可以在照片(Photos)表盘和万花筒(Kaleidoscope)表盘之间进行选择。您将能够选择其他一些详细信息,例如您希望时间出现的位置以及您希望激活 哪些复杂功能字段。(Complication)
- 完成后,只需点击添加(Add),它会在几秒钟后出现在您的手表上。
还有其他应用程序需要考虑,例如Watch Face [在某些地区不可用] 和Facer。我们测试的每个应用程序都需要高级订阅。事实上,您不需要应用程序来创建自定义Apple表盘。虽然由于Apple的限制,“真实”自定义面孔不可用,但您可以选择图库中的照片作为背景。
这些照片可以从网络上的任何地方下载。下载并选择背景后,选择要添加的并发症。(Complications)这需要一些麻烦,但您可以创建自定义Apple Watch表盘,而无需向第三方开发者付费。
寻找定制Apple Watch 表盘(Apple Watch)的最佳位置是Google。也许浏览Pinterest或Deviant Art来寻找吸引你的设计。保存它,将其应用到您的手表上,然后创建您的面孔。这比尝试使用第三方应用程序更容易、更快捷。
The Best Places To Find Custom Apple Watch Faces
The Apple Watch is the epitome of wearable tech. It can make and receive phone calls, track your biometric data, function as a Fitbit, and much more. In the latest models, the Apple Watch can even function as a medical device to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate and alert your physician if you’re in danger.
But for those who care about aesthetics, the numerous choices for watch faces are where the device truly shines. By default, you can choose from multiple Apple Watch faces that include the Modular, Siri, Activity Digital, Breathe, Kaleidoscope, Vapor, Mickey Mouse, and Utility faces.
All of these are well-designed and will work for almost anyone, but if you want to stand out, go for the custom Apple watch face. You can choose images from your photo gallery as the background of your Apple Watch, but at present, you cannot download truly “custom” faces—but you can find awesome images to work as the background and create your custom face by adding “Complications.”
A “Complication” is a special feature you can add to the watch face, such as a stock price ticker or information from another app. The ability to choose what information you see at a glance is how you can make your watch face unique from anyone else’s. The key is knowing where to look for backgrounds.
Where To Get Complications for a Custom Apple Watch Face
A lot of third-party apps come with Complications that you can later add to your Apple Watch. For example, iTranslate comes with a Complication you can add that automatically determines the local language based on your GPS location and translates helpful phrases throughout the day. You can just tap the Complication from there to enter the full-screen mode and speak the phrase you need to be translated into it.
A full list of third-party apps that provide complications is difficult to come by. However, when an app does provide a Complication it will automatically appear in your list of potential options. You can view the ones you currently have by launching the Watch app and tapping Complications beneath My Faces.
WatchMaker is an app that claims to have over 100,000 different watch faces and hands to choose from. It uses the Live Photos feature to create animated faces for the Apple Watch, but notes inside the app that analog hands, weather, and battery features are not supported by Apple.
Something to be aware of: the app is free to download, but the setup process prompts you to sign up for their premium service at $3.99 per week. The way to bypass this is a small “X” in the top-right corner.
The app provides access to quite a few free backgrounds and a watch face builder, but it is extremely aggressive in pushing its premium service – so much so that it is nearly unusable. While it is an option if you’re dedicated to exploring every potential outlet for creating custom Apple Watch faces, use it at your own risk.
Faces [not available in certain regions]
Faces is another app that gives access to a wide range of creative backgrounds. Like WatchMaker, it is riddled with advertisements. There are dozens of categories to choose from, but the vast majority of them require you to subscribe to the premium service to access the images. Each category offers one to two free backgrounds, however.
The app works without any unnecessary steps, unlike apps like Facer.
- You launch it, select the image you want, and then click Create a watch face.
- Ignore the ad and wait until you can click the “X” in the top left corner.
- Tap the Watch icon on the screen, then select Create Watch Face from the menu that appears. You can then select between a Photos watch face and a Kaleidoscope watch face. You’ll be able to select a few other details, like where you want the time to appear and what Complication fields you want active.
- Once you’ve done that, just tap Add and it will appear on your watch in a few seconds.
There are other apps to consider, like Watch Face [not available in certain regions] and Facer. Every app we tested required a premium subscription. The truth is, you do not need an app to create a custom Apple watch face. While “true” custom faces are not available due to restrictions placed by Apple, you can choose a photo in your gallery to be the background.
These photos can be downloaded from anywhere on the web. Once you download and choose the background, select the Complications you want to add. It takes a bit of finagling, but you can create your custom Apple Watch face without paying money to a third-party developer.
The single best place to find a custom Apple Watch face is Google. Maybe browse Pinterest or Deviant Art for a design that appeals to you. Save it, apply it to your watch, and create your face. It’s easier and faster than trying to work with a third-party app.
