  • ​You can enable all 3 features simultaneously and if there are active information to display from multiple features UW2 will automatically show the latest.
  • You can also configure a shortcut which will cycle through all long text area features that have active information to display.

  • If you have extra buttons on the watch you can configure one of them to cycle through the active displays in the long text area.
  • Included special handling of Google’s Notification Preview long text complication. When there are no notifications to show the complication will automatically be hidden instead of showing “No notifications”.​
  • Other enhancements.


Ver 2.5.10:
  • ​A significantly updated weather window. It will give a summary of current weather conditions as well a button to initiate a manual update from the watch. This window is opened automatically from the built-in weather dial when you tap on it (as long as you don’t have any other shortcut on it). You can also configure a shortcut to this window from any other dial as well.
  • The watch configuration menus now uses circular lists for round watches.
  • The phone Watchface Designer has been updated. It’s now showing the live time instead of a fixed time. It’s now also showing the Notes/Current Events window in the same way as on the watch and with the same information. More of the built-in dials are now showing actual data instead of fixed data. For example the Altimeter will show altitude (as long as the phone has a barometer sensor).
  • Added support to enable/disable the Wear OS built-in unread notifications “dot” in the bottom of the display.

Ver 2.5.4:
  • ​Use new watch actions as shortcuts on the dials. Lot's of useful actions such as Brightness boost, Toggle Dim mode, Change brightness, start voice command etc (see screenshot below).
  • Configure the extra hardware buttons to the same type of shortcuts as for the dials. 
  • IFTTT commands as shortcuts. Control your smart home, smart lighting, home cinema, car etc directly from your watch. 
  • Generic cloud commands (webhooks) as shortcuts. Use for Internet of Things applications or any other automation software 
  • ‎Brightness (sunlight) boost: For those of you missing this feature in Wear 2.0 it is now a built-in feature in UW2. Set it as a shortcut on a dial or configure one of the hardware buttons to start it.
  • Dim mode. Quickly toggle dim mode when your in a dark place like the cinema.
  • Change system brightness directly from within Ultimate Watch 2. You now can control the watch system brightness on the watch from within UW2. This will get you much more detailed control of the system brightness than the Wear display brightness setting. Just enable this option in the brightness setting in UW2. You  can also have a shortcut to this settings by using the new action shortcuts. You can also use it together with the automation features to automate the system brightness for example at sunrise/sunset.
  • ‎New weather window on the watch. Now you can manually update the weather directly from the watch without having to use the phone app. You can also set a shortcut to this window.
  • ‎Possibility to have the digital time show only in ambient mode and not in active

Note that the brightness and IFTTT features requires a watch with Android Wear 2.0.
