How to Quickly Set a Photo as a Watch Face on Your Apple Watch

While we use the Twitter app as an example in this article, this should work in any iPhone app that allows you to save a photo.

1.) Press and hold on the photo you wish to use.

2.) In the dialog that appears, tap the “Create Watch Face” icon.

3.) On the next screen, tap which Watch Face format to use, “Photos Watch Face,” or “Kaleidoscope Watch Face.”

4.) On the next screen, you’ll see the options page. Here, you can set the Time Position (Top or Bottom), and where the Complication appears (Above Time or Below Time).

5.) Tap the “Add” button.

By following the steps above, you can quickly add any photo that catches your fancy as an Apple Watch watch face.
