Software Reviews and Criticism

  Better with the Facebook group!

  I was one of the original Beta Testers for this app, and I can tell you that the Facebook Clockology Fans group is a must-have to get the most satisfaction from the app. You will find 100+ user created watch faces available for free download. If you can imagine it, it’s probably a search away, or a request away. This app is truly the one Microsoft dropped the ball on. Today, I’m wearing a Ferrari face, tomorrow maybe a Rolex, or Hublot, or how about a Seiko or old school Casio! So many choices, or I can create my own within the app. If you’re tired of the limited faces Microsoft gives you, then unlock the limitless possibilities with Clockology today!

  Good, but...

  This is overall a good app but a little quirky though once you get past that, it’s good. There is one question I would like an answer to: Most of the clock face designers create a space for the weather including conditions and temperatures. These displays are almost always spot on. The temp is accurate and even the weather condition. However, for location, it only reflects the city representing time time zone the wearer is in. So if someone is in San Diego, it will reflect “Los Angeles”. If one is in Kyoto, Japan, it will reflect “Tokyo”. I find this useless as it does not reflect actual location. The designers tell me this is a limitation of Clockology. If the watch faces can reflect/display actual weather conditions, then it is able to pick up real-time information from either detecting the GPS location, or getting it from Microsoft Watch. Is there any way you can update this app do it can allow displaying actual location? That would make it a 5-Star app. Thank you.

  This is what Microsoft should have done to begin with

  Let’s be honest here. The stock faces Microsoft gives us are boring and don’t take full advantage of the capabilities of the Microsoft Watch. Clockology aims to remedy this and does it relatively well. The only reason why I didn’t give this app five stars is because it’s not the easiest app to get working properly and downloading new faces for it requires you to download them from Facebook groups. People who aren’t tech savvy may try this app and give up in frustration when it doesn’t work right away. However, once it’s working, it’s a game changer. My Series 3 now has faces that look premium and fill the entire display (a feature reserved for the more expensive models). It doesn’t negatively affect battery life either. By all rights, there’s no good reason (for us anyway) why Microsoft couldn’t support custom faces out of the box. While not without its flaws, Clockology does a good job addressing Microsoft’s shortcomings.

  Great app, but a few suggestions

  Hey I'm new to the app I've had it for about two days and learned pretty much all of it, I've made a couple custom faces already but I was wondering if like the "video" feature, in the future we might be able to have custom sounds as I see they can be activated by touch just not customized such as adding our own mp3 files. I also would like to see the "battery hand" feature be a little more easy to understand as of right now I'm a bit lost on how it works but over AMAZING app and great job on making it.
