@wtksk8r Actually not at all: the clockface needs to declare in its manifest which device it can be installed to and if it doesn't listen Sense then it's not possible.In addition let's remembet that Sense with its SDK 5.0 (and more recent 6.0) broke the retrocompatibility so the clockfaces/apps need to be purposly ported to the new devices.

 

The clockface that @LilMissShaz used in her Ionic was probably BlazeArc that as you can see runs on Ionic, Versa and Versa 2 but not on Sense / Versa 3 because of different SDK version

@LilMissShaz Suggest searching for that clock face by its name. In many cases the watchface that works for the Ionic will work for the Sense even if it is not optimized for the Sense.

Thank you for your reply. That name does indeed ring a bell. I'll have a look on the store and see if I can contact the maker to see if they have any intentions to upgrade it to sense.

Hi there, @LilMissShaz@wtksk8r and @SunsetRunner Thanks for your great help.

@LilMissShaz Thanks for the details and screenshot provided. As our members mentioned, while some clock faces are compatible with most of our Fitbit Smartwatches, some others will depend of the model and their OS version.

I appreciate the time you'll take to contact the developer to see if they can make a similar one for your watch, and I'd also suggest visiting the Fitbit App Gallery. In here you can find a variety of clock faces and apps designed by both Fitbit and 3rd-party developers. I hope you can keep enjoying the experience with the Sense.
