About this app

An animated Korean folk art watch face for Wear OS: a big, comical tiger sits in the lower left and goggles up at a magpie perched on an old pine branch, with cloud scrolls on warm hanji paper. The pair comes from minhwa, Korean folk painting, where they are the best-loved couple: the bird brings good news, the big cat listens. The analog hands and hours are all brushwork.

KEY FEATURES
• Tap for the magpie: tap the watch face and it crouches, hops along the branch, chirps, then flies a loop over the big cat and lands back on its branch.
• Every hour: as the hour turns, the big cat blinks twice, breaks into a grin and flicks its tail.
• An ink painting for a dial: the hours are brush dabs and brush-drawn numerals, and the hands are black brush strokes with a soft paper halo.
• A slim cinnabar seconds line, and the date's day sits in a red seal.
• Three papers: cream hanji, aged (warmer, darker, foxed) or white.
• Readings on the paper: steps, unread notifications and battery, lettered in ink.
• Easy on the battery: nothing moves at rest but the seconds hand, and the bird and the cat play only on a tap and on the hour.

MAKE IT YOURS
• Paper: cream, aged or white.
• Three complications on the paper: steps, unread notifications and battery by default. Put another app's complication there and it shows that app's icon, or its title where it sends no icon.

ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY
Always-on shows the pair as faint ink outlines, with the hands and the marks dimmed.

COMPATIBILITY
Works on Wear OS 6 or later, such as Galaxy Watch models updated to One UI 8 Watch and Pixel Watch. Made in Watch Face Format: no permissions, no data collected.

HOW TO INSTALL
1. Install it from Google Play on your watch, or tap Install on my watch in the phone app.
