A playful face for your Wear OS watch
A little company.
Every single day.
A familiar glance at the time, with someone new to meet. Tiny Timekeepers pairs a clear digital clock with a world of small, animated companions.
On the watch
Small characters.
Real personality.
The time stays front and centre. A little companion brings the colour, then curls up when the day is done. These are real captures from the running watch face.

Useful at a glance
The little things
that make a day.
Tiny Timekeepers is built around the things you check most: the time, the date, and a few simple activity indicators. The character adds a moment of delight without taking over the whole display.
Time comes first
Large digital numerals, a secondary date, and a dark background keep the main information easy to pick out. The watch follows your device’s time format.
Everyday essentials
A step-progress ring, compact battery icon, and heart-rate indicator sit alongside the character. Battery colours change as the charge gets low.
Movement in small moments
Characters animate in short, occasional bursts during the day. At night they rest; in always-on mode the display becomes simpler and dimmer.
A colour that feels like you
Choose from Aurora, Rose, or Sage accents in the watch-face settings. The character schedule changes automatically with the day and week.
Meet the neighbours
Ten weeks of
tiny discoveries.
Each week has a theme, and each day brings one of its seven characters. After ten weeks, the collection begins again. Here is a little taste of the full cast.
FruitsLittle everyday favourites
DinosaursPrehistoric personalities
Rainbow FantasyA little make-believe
BirdsFeathers and small flutters
Water FriendsFrom rivers to the sea
Woodland FriendsSmall forest encounters
Farm & MeadowA softer kind of company
Big MammalsBig friends, tiny format
Cats & DogsFamiliar faces from home
Horses & PoniesA week in the paddockEach one has its own rhythm.
The companions use individual animation poses, including a separate resting pose. The animation is part of the watch face itself.
A surprise you don’t have to manage.
The calendar takes care of the rotation. There are no characters to unlock, feeding reminders to dismiss, or daily tasks to complete.
A few useful details

A small, personal watch-face project, made with the same care as the rest of the studio’s work.
Which watches is it made for?
Tiny Timekeepers is made for Wear OS watches that support Watch Face Format. The current development setup and the screenshots on this site use Wear OS 6.
Can I pick a character?
The current design follows a calendar-based rotation: one themed collection per week and a different companion each day. Accent colours can be changed in the watch-face settings.
Does it have an always-on display?
Yes. It includes a dedicated ambient display with slimmer, dimmer time numerals and a subdued character on a black background. The watch’s own always-on settings control when this mode is used.
Does it need an account or a phone app?
No separate account or companion phone app is required. The watch face runs on the watch, using its local time and available activity data.
Where can I download it?
Tiny Timekeepers is currently a personal project in private testing. A public download is not available on this site yet.
Made for small, happy moments.
