Customize the watch face

Customize the watch face

Personalize your Apple Watch Ultra face so it looks the way you want and provides the functions you need. Choose a design, adjust colors and features, then add it to your collection. Switch faces at any time to see the right timekeeping tools—or to shake things up.

The Face Gallery in the Apple Watch app is the easiest way to see all of the available watch faces, customize one, and add it to your collection. But, if your iPhone isn’t handy, you can customize the face right on your watch. For more information, see Apple Watch Ultra faces and their features.

  • Swipe edge to edge across the watch face to see other faces in your collection.

  • To see all available watch faces, touch and hold the watch face, swipe to the one you want, then tap it.
