it does for me - make sure on the phone you add it to the line up when you scroll left or right.
What on your phone? I'm not able to scroll left and right, only up and down to choose a face?

The Android apps are completely different now-a-days. We used to see something like this, but not anymore.

The Android Wear app (left) is very rudimentary now. When you click on the image of the watch it launches the TAG Heuer Connected APP (on the right)


Once there, you can "traverse" through the cards vertically.


To choose from the available faces, you select one and then it will open a different card that that you can traverse horizontally.


It tends to be cumbersome. I preferred the original UI flow.

Yes, doing that on the watch will put the watchface to the "recently used / favorites" list.

Agreed. Also purchased last Tuesday. The watch updated immediately and provided the Heuer01 skeleton watch. The battery was utter pants though and was replaced. The next day the update wasn't available.

My new one is also in developer mode with ADB debug on. However, this has not improved the battery life of this watch one little bit. Fingers crossed on the impending update.
Hi how do you turn developer mode off ?

Haha. Just found the second layer of plastic. Screen much better with that gone. Now this watch says the software is up to date but I don't have the Heuer01 face. How do you get it?
Me too! Thanks.

I'm loving that app, thanks! Just donated to unlock all the features, liking the ability to see the discharge time right on the watch.
Where do you find that app? I can't find it on google play on the watch.

I've had my 45 connected for about a week now. Love the watch and the look, but I have to say that I'm not happy with the whole ownership experience.
I've been a Tag loyalist for the last 18 years. But this one leaves me feeling a lot was lost in the launch. The documentation was next to not existent, my own unit was shipped in demo mode locked, and without 2 days of intense reviewing of this forum and other reviews, I would have probably returned it. I'm on IOS and that makes it even more frustrating.
My question to the users here is whether you would recommend moving to a Samsung S8 at this time. I have been a loyal Iphone user, but the new Samsung is quite attractive and I just got my iPhone 10 days ago and can return it. Not sure if I should be making the sacrifice, but feel that the Android platform is more mature to give it a try now. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

Did you buy the watch directly from TAG Heuer or one of their boutiques?
The documentation is lacking, but that is why TAG Heuer has produced sevaral YouTube videos (most on this thread).
If you are exploring jumping to Android, then I'd recommend checking out Google's Pixel phones. While the hardware is not as good as the Galaxy's, those are the ones that offer the "true" Android experience software-wise.

Hy, I moved (after many years of iPhone - since V1) to Android just to try it with the Tag Heuer. It ist a much better experience now. But you must know for what you use it, if you only use it for notifications - the iPhone is enough, but with Android you also have the whole Google Maps experience (and of course better notifications, too). I actually use a OnePlus 3T, but will move on to a Blackberry KeyOne in the next days. No Regrets for leaving iPhone...
