After going quiet for a while due to compatibility issues with Wear OS 5, Facer’s finally back with full Wear OS 6 support, and it’s a notable upgrade. The app supports Google’s Watch Face Format (WFF), which means faces sync directly from the phone app to your watch, without extra installs or app juggling required. All-in-all, the revamped app experience brings some welcome usability improvements.
I tested the new Facer update on a Galaxy Watch Ultra, and right from setup, it’s clear things have been smoothed out. Syncing faces is practically instant. Once I tapped on my pick, it immediately showed up on my watch. The friction-free process goes a long way toward making the app feel like a proper part of the platform instead of a third-party workaround. It also makes it dangerously tempting to save entirely more faces than necessary.
