Which app to download new Samsung smart watch faces?

[Casey Cheung]

When I used to use the Note 10+ phone, there was an app I used to download and install new Samsung watch faces. I can't find that app, anyone know the name of it? The app would show me various watch face designs that I can see on my smartphone screen before deciding to download. My favorite watch faces were digital faces showing lots of features, I think the author's name is "IRIS"? and watch face names are listed as IRIS15, IRIS16, etc. I have the older Samsung smart watch (version#3?) from about 2 years ago. If someone can point me in the right direction to find the app to install different watch faces, I would appreciate that. If the app exists in my current Ultra 22 plus, what is that? Thanks! -Casey

I know you need the wearables app but watch faces are all different now since the new watch is Wear OS. It comes pre-loaded with some several people ise facer I think it's called or the play store now I believe.

Sorry if asking the obvious, but are you saying it's not possible to install the old app and download those old favorite watch faces because my new Ultra 22 plus phone (and the native app for it) are not compatible to get back my old favorite watch faces for my old version #3 watch?

RESOLVED! Good news, I was able to figure it out. I revived my old Note 10+ phone, downloaded the old Samsung Wearable app, had to get past a bunch of permissions in Settings, was able to find some of my old favorite IRIS watch faces and transfer them to my old version #3 Samsung smart watch. I'm all good now.

I am glad its resolved but my friend returned her watch 4 classic she said she didn't see any faces she liked and that the old tizen ones didn't work with wear OS. I just got new ones so I don't know.

Edit: Ha by the time I got this posted you figured it out. My post wouldn't post above. Need the coffee now ...

You can still get Watchfaces for Samsung Watches that are before Wear OS models. I have a Watch 3.

If you haven't already, go the the Galaxy Store & download the Galaxy Wearable App if it's not pre-installed.

You'll need to pair your watch with your s22 Ultra. Under settings on your watch, there is an option to pair your watch to a new phone. It should give you an opportunity to backup your settings.

At the bottom of the Wearable app, (see pic) you can select Galaxy Store. I searched for Iris & a list of watchfaces with Iris in the name appeared. (see second pic)

If you purchased watchfaces in the past you may find them in the Wearables App. I only had one that was not available from my Note 20U to my s22U.

If this isn't what you're asking, I'm sorry. I haven't had my coffee today.

I am happy with it. We did a trade in so I traded up my Active 2 and my husband his Galaxy Watch 3 he has the Classic bigger watch 4 but I only paid $60 for mine and I like it so far. Wear OS is good and were supposed to be getting a big update soon and getting google assistant. Battery may not be as great but i charge every day anyway so I am good.
