You can change your Apple Watch face right on your wrist or from the Watch app on your iPhone, and newer watchOS versions also let you swipe between saved faces once a setting is enabled.

Quick Scoop

  • From the watch:
    • Wake your Apple Watch and stay on the current watch face.
* Touch and hold the display until it shrinks and you see a row of faces.
* Swipe left or right to pick a different face, then tap it to set it.
  • Enable swipe-to-switch (watchOS 10.2 or later):
    • Press the Digital Crown to open apps, tap Settings.
* Go to **Clock** and turn on **Swipe to Switch Watch Face**.
* Now you can just swipe left or right on the watch face to move between faces you’ve added.
  • Add a new watch face:
    • On the watch: touch and hold the face, swipe all the way to the right, tap +.
* Turn the Digital Crown to browse designs, tap a face, then customize colors and complications if options appear.
  • Change from your iPhone:
    • Open the Watch app, tap Face Gallery at the bottom.
* Choose a style (for example Modular, Portraits, or Photos), adjust colors/complications, then tap **Add** to send it to your watch.
  • Extra personalization tips:
    • Use Photos or Portraits faces to turn your own photos into a dynamic watch face.
* In the **My Watch** tab, you can reorder or remove faces so swiping cycles only through your favorites.
