So much on such a little screen! I use this with Ticwatch Pro 3. There's so much more to it than I've learned to use; but, that makes the app even better because beginners to ultra advanced users can enjoy it's functions. DYNA Logix has produced and posted almost as many helpful videos as a movie studio. He also offers great one-on-one support if you need it.

By far the best and most comprehensive launcher system out there. It has a metric ton of configurations in just about every way imaginable. You can open it by swiping right/left/upward, create a tile (of either Favorites or a subset of apps you choose), as a watchface, as complications on other watchfaces, or by opening the app directly (which allows you to configure buttons to open it). It also has a website that answers most of your questions that pop up. I've been using it for over a year and I'm still discovering new features and new ways to use the app.

I've had several Wear OS watches, and I've always considered them semi-smart watches. They do some things well, other things not so well or at least not intuitive. Bubble Cloud is a fantastic app that not only let's you make your watch intuitively yours, but also adds functionality - particularly if you use Tasker or IFTTT. The developer is very responsive, and there are a lot of articles and videos to use as guides. Purchasing premium was a no brainer to support this active developer.
