Very cool. That's how cool. And this concept proves it.
For the uninitiated, the iOS 16 Lock Screen has an option that effectively turns it into the Weather app. You get to see the weather reflected on-screen, and it almost looks like your iPhone is getting wet if it rains. It's super awesome, but there's nothing like it on the Apple Watch. Developer David Smith thinks that there should be.
So he created it, at least in concept form.
It's important to note here and now that developers can't make third-party watch faces and then make them available to the public. That's something we need Apple to change at some point, but whether it will or not, we'll have to wait and see. But in the case of this particular Weather watch face, we can imagine Apple adding it as a first-party option.
Fingers crossed!
As for the concept, it shows rain falling behind the time, and in the case of snow, it even settles on top of the numerals. It's the whimsy Apple was once known for and is sadly lacking at times.
Whether or not you're into this watch face, its existence again gives us an idea of how creative developers could be if Apple ever let them make their watch faces.
Could this be the best Apple Watch face to date if it did exist? It's probably pretty close. So please bring it to watchOS 10, Apple.
