Creating a Watch Face - Now also for Xiaomi!
Hi, everyone!
Xiaomi has been implemented!
Facemaker is now the only software in the world that supports Huawei, Amazfit/Zepp, Xiaomi, Garmin, Wear OS and a few other OEM watches.
More than 300 watches, all in a single software!
Some may say Xiaomi is a budget smartwatch and God knows I woudn't recommend the Lite and Active versions of the Xiaomi vatches (they are very very weak), but I'm actually surprised on how well my Redmi Watch 4 behaves and also with the battery life, considering how much I paid for it.
It's a good watch to offer your kids for example, a good bang for the buck!
In this video I focus on showing how you can create a simple but good looking watchface, using only Facemaker. The first one I made has shortcuts (areas of the watchface where you can click to open apps), but I didn't include them on this video.
This watchface is based on an Apple Watch watchface, with some small modifications.
