Update January 2025: this method no longer works on watches that have WearOS 5. This includes the Pixel Watch 3 and the Galaxy Watch 7 and Ultra :-(

This video explains how to install xDrip+ from your Android phone to your WearOS watch, and how to set one of the xDrip+ watchfaces. This works for WearOS 5 watches like the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 where old-style watchfaces are no longer officially supported. Update 29 Aug 24: this is confirmed to be working on Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch 7 Ultra :-) Update 12 Sep 24: it seems as though technique this won't on the Pixel Watch 3 - Google have removed the watchface runtime on that device :-(

Update 2 Sep 24: Wear Installer 2 will now automatically show your available watchfaces when you install xDrip+. You don't need to select them from WI2's main menu as shown in this video.

Here's a link to the Github page for xDrip+: https://github.com/NightscoutFoundati...
