Luckily, changing the wallpaper in your smartwatch is generally easy to do. Doing so is a common feature, and is a great way to personalize your device and make it feel more like your own. It’s also commonly done, much like how people change their phones’ wallpaper. To do so, here is a quick rundown of the steps:
- Open your smartwatch.
- Pair your smartwatch with your phone via Bluetooth.
- Go to your smartwatch’s settings via your smartphone.
- Look for “Watchface” and choose your wallpaper.
- Wait for the syncing to finish.
- Enjoy your smartwatch with the new wallpaper.
In this article, we’ll be giving you an even more in-depth look at the steps mentioned above. It’s important that you feel comfortable with your device and let it reflect your personality.
Open your smartwatch
The first step, of course, is to open your smartwatch and familiarize yourself with your new device. This is so you can learn all of its features and functionalities. Doing so would also help prevent you from being confused in the future, as well as let you learn all of its limitations. Additionally, learning about all the ins and outs of your wearable device should help better enjoy its features and use it to its full extent.
In this case, familiarizing yourself with and exploring your device will let you know whether you can change your smartwatch’s wallpaper. In addition, you’ll also be able to learn if you can use a photo taken by the camera, a pre-built wallpaper, or even download your own as the watch face. There are even models that enable 3D wallpapers, which add a ton of personality to your watch face.
In short, exploring your smartwatch should give you an idea of the possible images you can use as wallpaper. So turn the dial and understand what your new device can do.
Pair your smartwatch with your phone via Bluetooth
The next step, of course, is to pair your smartwatch with your phone via Bluetooth. This is the usual case if your smartwatch doesn’t have its SIM card, and relies on a smartphone connection for extra functions. To do so, start by waking up your smartwatch and going to the menu. From there, click on “settings” and look for the Bluetooth button. Once you’ve located it, simply turn it on. Next, open your smartphone and open its Bluetooth as well, and go to the app “FitCloudPro.” From there, your smartphone should be able to recognize your smartwatch device and give you a pairing request. Click “pair” and then “allow” when it asks if you would like to get notifications.
Once done, you should be able to control your smartwatch via your phone, and even vice versa. You can also use it for other functions, such as playing music, tracking your daily activity, or even taking a call. In this case, however, we’ll be using it to customize your watch face.
Go to your smartwatch’s settings via your smartphone
Because your watch is now synced with your phone, you should be able to control the former with the latter. As such, you can also change its settings via your phone.
You can do this by going to the smartwatch app on your phone, where you can pretty much change all of the settings and make adjustments. This app is called “Wearfit Pro,” which easily recognizes your smartwatch and lets you tinker with its settings.
Either way, you should be able to easily access your watch settings via your phone. If not, then try syncing it up again.
Look for “watch face” and choose your wallpaper
Once you have opened the settings on your phone, the next step is to look for the “watch face” button. It should be easy to find on your phone. On the FitCloudPro app, simply click the second tab at the bottom of the screen, named “device.”
Once you click on “watch face,” you will be given two options:
- Pick from the available watch faces – Because FitCloudPro comes with a wide range of watch faces, you can easily pick from these to customize your watch. Each watch face is unique and has its style, so choosing one should be fun. Alternatively, you can also download additional watch faces from the internet. Once you have chosen your preferred watch face from the options, however, simply click “set as watch face”.
- Choose a photo as your new watch face – If you don’t fancy the available watch faces, however, you have one other option: use a photo that you took. To do this, simply click the first option in the watch face category and then click on the “+” button. From there, the app will ask if you want to either take a photo or use an existing one. If you want to take a photo, the camera will open to let you take one. If you choose to use an existing one, however, you can pick any photo from your gallery. Once you’ve chosen, simply adjust its size, position, and style to your liking before clicking “set as a watch face.”
Wait for the syncing to finish
After picking your preferred watch face (whether it’s a preset one or a photo you took), the next step is to wait for the devices to sync. While this is happening, your phone should say “synchronizing” along with a small progress bar, while the watch itself should say that it’s updating.
After a few moments, the syncing should be done.
Enjoy your smartwatch with the new wallpaper
After synchronizing, wake up your smartwatch by tapping the screen or clicking the wheel at the side and you should see your new watch face show up. This will continue to be your new watch face wallpaper unless you decide to change it.
Be sure to experiment with different photos and styles to make unique watch faces that you are sure to enjoy, all while making your smartwatch feel brand-new every time.
Conclusion
So there you go, the steps on how to customize your watch face wallpaper and style. These important steps should be generally easy to follow and give you a good idea of what you can do with your smartwatch if you want to customize it and make it more personal. It should also help familiarize you better with your watch and how it pairs up with your phone.
Overall, customizing your smartwatch by changing the wallpaper to something you like is great and easy to personalize your device and make it feel more like your own. It’s also a great feature, especially for people transitioning to using their smartwatch as their everyday device. Luckily, doing so is easy and straightforward, and the steps on this list provide you with multiple options that you can pick and follow anytime.
