Sonar Watch Face

A watch face built around a sonar sweep

Sonar Watch Face is a Wear OS watch face for people who want their wrist display to feel more like an instrument panel than a traditional clock. Its defining feature is the animated sonar effect in interactive mode, with time and supporting information arranged around the display. It suits users who prefer a technical, animated look and still want practical at-a-glance details.

Useful information without opening an app

The face can show the day and month, watch battery, and weather. With the companion phone app, it can also display your phone’s battery level and weather data. Depending on your watch and configuration, the surrounding indicators can be used for information such as daily steps, heart rate, unread Gmail messages, or other available data.

Plenty to adjust

Colour choices, 12- or 24-hour time, date formatting, weather units, refresh rates, interactive duration, and ambient display behaviour are all configurable. You can also choose whether to show the brand name, leading zeros, battery indicators, shortcuts, or other display elements. Paid customisation adds options such as a personal title, a second time zone, selectable data indicators, complications, and touch actions.

A focused choice with solid user feedback

Sonar Watch Face is made by thema and sits in the Personalization category. Its 4.32 rating from 688 reviews and 10,000+ installs suggest that the design has found a clear audience, rather than simply blending into the large collection of generic digital faces. Pick it if the animated sonar presentation appeals to you; skip it if you want a quiet, conventional clock face with minimal movement.
