How Do You Remove Watch Faces From a Smart Watch?

Published in Smartwatches 2 mins read

The process for removing watch faces from a smart watch typically involves accessing the watch face settings on the watch itself or through a companion app on your smartphone. Here's a general outline, with specifics depending on your smartwatch's brand and model.

General Steps on the Smartwatch:

  1. Access Watch Face Selection: Long-press on the current watch face. This usually opens a menu to browse and change watch faces.

  2. Enter Edit Mode (If Available): Some smartwatches have an "Edit" option within the watch face selection screen. Look for an "Edit" button or icon.

  3. Remove/Delete Watch Faces: In edit mode, you should see an option to remove or delete the watch faces you no longer want. This might be a trash can icon or a "Delete" button associated with each watch face.

  4. Confirm Removal: You might be prompted to confirm that you want to remove the selected watch face(s).

Using a Companion App (e.g., on your Smartphone):

  1. Open the App: Launch the companion app associated with your smartwatch on your smartphone. This is often the easiest method.

  2. Navigate to Watch Faces: Look for a section in the app related to "Watch Faces" or "Display."

  3. Manage Watch Faces: Within the watch face section, you should see a list of installed watch faces.

  4. Remove/Delete: Select the watch face you want to remove and look for a "Delete" or "Remove" option.

  5. Sync Changes: The app may automatically sync changes to your watch, or you may need to manually initiate a sync.

Example using HUAWEI Watch Fit SE (Based on Provided Reference):

  1. From the watch face selection screen, select the "Mine" option.
  2. Click "Edit."
  3. You will then be able to select which watch faces you want to remove.

Important Considerations:

  • The exact steps vary depending on the smartwatch's operating system (e.g., Wear OS, watchOS, proprietary OS) and the manufacturer (e.g., Apple, Samsung, Google, Fitbit, Huawei).
  • Some pre-installed watch faces may not be removable.
  • Refer to your smartwatch's user manual or the manufacturer's website for specific instructions for your device.
