Dear all, i am a music conductor and developer, and to fulfill my joy with music i recently developed a WatchFace and some apps for a non-apple watch called "PineTime". My whole development is done in c++ and is available at https://github.com/luto65/PineConductor/

Since I am aswell an apple developer, and most of my friends have apple watches, i am now porting those c++ apps to the apple watch.

I just finished the very first one, that is actually a watch Face

I now ported it to appleWatch and it looks pretty similar too (here a screenshot from the simulator) Simulator Screen Shot - Apple Watch Series 7 - 45mm - 2024-10-15 at 13.21.49.png

I would like to now remove the annoying digital hour on the top right corner, and then sell it as new custom face, together with my other swift-ports of my original c++ applications.

Looking forward any feedback.

If you're using SwiftUI to build your watchface app, you can add ._statusBarHidden() modifier to your watchface view. You can also pass a variable as argument to control the visibility of the digital time dynamically like this: ._statusBarHidden(true)

Note that this API isn't stable because it has _ prefix. And Xcode doesn't provide any documentation and auto completion about this modifier.
