Watch Faces

Each watchOS release adds new watch faces, and watchOS 7 is no exception, bringing the new Chronograph Pro which includes an integrated tachymeter. Apple has also polished up a few of the other faces, adding color filters to the Photos face, and better complication support to a few others, like X-Large.

With watchOS 7 you’ll also now be able to share your customized watch faces with your friends and family via iMessage. The feature is there in the public beta, although of course the recipient also needs to be using watchOS 7 too in order to do anything with a shared watch face.

You’ll also be able to add multiple complications from the same app on some of the more complex watch faces, although as with the widgets in iOS 14, third-party apps will need to be updated before you’ll be able to take advantage of this.

Apple has also added new complications for the Camera remote and the Sleep app, as well as direct access to Shortcuts — not just the app, but actual individual shortcuts that you’ve set up, which is really handy. In addition, when adding complications to a watch face, you’ll now see a preview of what each one looks like.
