Apple executives are extremely reluctant to let outside developers create other watch faces. The reason is simple, it is related to the stability of the OS.
Since the first model of Apple Watch, Apple has offered a multitude of watch faces for the Watch Face. The problem is that despite new proposals with each new update, including partnerships with Disney or Snoopy, Apple has always prevented developers from offering their own watch faces. And in an interview granted to the Swiss of daily indicatorApple executives have been rather closed on the issue.
According to Kevin Lynch and Deidre Caldbeck, vice presidents of Apple, it is simply impossible to open such a feature to developers, and this, in order not to compromise the proper functioning of the system. The users “wouldn’t have to worry regarding the watch face still working when there’s a major watchOS update. We will take care of it”, reassures Deidre Caldbeck. On the other hand, if Apple opens the development of dials to third parties, the stability of the OS will no longer be guaranteed and Apple will not be able to correct this.
It is a logical policy on the part of Apple, which prevents anyone from modifying the intrinsic functions of its OS, whether it is watchOS, iOS or macOS. Never has it been possible to actually change the look of the iPhone home screen like it does on an Android phone. It is for this reason that iPhones are known to be more stable than other smartphones…
