Wear OS (formerly Android Wear) is Google's smartwatch operating system, letting users handle notifications, apps, and more all from their wrist. Available across a range of smartwatches from a variety of manufacturers, there's likely a Wear OS design for everyone. But did you know you can customize your device with a fresh watch face? Here are eight of the best Wear OS watch faces of 2020.

01 of 08 Bubble Cloud Wear Launcher Watchface What We Like Fast access to settings, messages, and more.

Most frequently used bubbles get greater on-screen prominence.

Supports countless complications throughout. What We Don't Like Not all features are free.

The layout can be overly complex at times. Bubble Cloud Wear Launcher Watchface is excellent if you like to stay in touch with a lot of people, while also having quick access to all your Wear OS apps. The watch face lets you create a slew of pages to which you can pin your apps and contacts. This is especially useful for creating groups of complications (such as tasks and note keeping apps), as well as clusters of friends (frequent contacts, family). Additionally, if you already have a watch face you like, you can choose to use Bubble Cloud as a launcher only, allowing you to slide it in from the side and thereby replacing your smartwatch’s standard launcher.

No automatic refresh to pull images from your smartphone. Photo Wear Watch Face lets you use your images as your watch face. You can choose just one, or create a photo grid with up to nine shots. These photos can come from your camera roll or your most recent Instagram uploads. Additionally, the app includes some simple image editing features for each photo you pick. There are several options for customization, including crop, contrast, and brightness tools. The app also has an array of image filters, which is great if you want all nine photos to have a specific look. Download Photo Wear Watch Face

03 of 08 ustwo Watch Faces What We Like Great designs.

Simple interfaces.

Free. What We Don't Like Fewer features than other watch face apps. While some will want lots of fancy complications or rapid access to their apps and contacts, many people will want something that looks clean and fresh on their smartwatch. And that’s what ustwo seems to understand with this set of watch faces. From the contrasting colors of Invert to the minimalist Stadium, there’s a style for every wrist. And while the focus is on good looking design, some of the watch faces do offer a few extras. These include Zodiac, which gives you dual time zones, and Museum, which also displays the date.

04 of 08 Last Laugh Tattoo - Mr Jones Watches What We Like Unique design.

Playful features. What We Don't Like Not easy to simply glance at.

Not free. If you’re feeling bold and are more interested in a good looking watch face than a functional one, check out Last Laugh Tattoo from Mr Jones Watches. The vibrant calavera design is certainly striking, but if you pay close attention to the details you’ll soon see it’s just as playful as it is colorful: the top row of teeth display the hour; the bottom row show the minutes; the floral eyes even turn as time passes. This might not be the most glanceable watch, but it’s certainly among the most fetching. Download Last Laugh Tattoo

05 of 08 GPS Tracker What We Like Dedicated features for runners and hikers.

Includes useful integration with Google Maps and Google Earth.

Works as a watch face, standalone app, or complication. What We Don't Like Not all features are free.

May be overly complicated for some. As the name suggests, this is a GPS tracking app for your Wear OS device that can also serve as a watch face. Aimed at those with walking and/or running in mind, GPS Tracker lets users see how many miles they’ve covered at a glance. It also offers quick complications to view current location, launch a map, check travel speed, and more. There are also quick functions for music playback and for sharing stats. Alternatively, if you’re happy with your current watch face, you can add GPS Tracker as a complication, still giving you quick access all its features. Download GPS Tracker

06 of 08 Timr Face What We Like Minimal-yet-colorful design.

Useful for monitoring seconds, minutes, and hours. What We Don't Like Limited functionality.

Not entirely free. At first glance, this is a good looking watch face that seems to have limited functionality. But take a closer look, and you’ll see a moving ruler in the bottom half of the display, closely tracking each passing second. If you’re somebody who needs to watch the seconds as well as minutes and hours (think interval training or cooking), this could be what you need. Additionally, there are options to change the color swatch with 11 variations for the slider and three options for the background display. All in all, Timr Face blends simple design with rich time-tracking functionality. Download Timr Face

07 of 08 DosFace Watch Face What We Like Nerdy (in a good way).

A variety of colorways. What We Don't Like Not easily glanceable.

Not free. What better way to dress up your modern smartwatch than to give it a 1981 look? This DOS-inspired look really is about as retro as it gets. There are several looks to choose from, including the classic terminal and the infamous blue screen of death. You can also opt to display time in 24-hour or 12-hour formats, and tapping the display will also show your smartwatch battery level. Download DosFace Watch Face
