Pets watch face
Hamster Wheel — pet watch face for Galaxy Watch
A hamster runs in its wheel: the rungs ring the whole dial and roll round once a minute, so the wheel keeps the seconds, while the hamster keeps pace at the bottom with its legs flying. Round hour dots sit inside the wheel.

Will Hamster Wheel work on my Galaxy Watch?
What matters is the software on the watch, not which model it is. These faces install through Watch Face Push, which arrived with Wear OS 6 — so any Galaxy Watch running Wear OS 6 or newer can use Hamster Wheel, and one running anything older cannot, however new the hardware is.
| Watch software | Wear OS 6 (One UI 8 Watch) or newer — the requirement is the software, not the model |
|---|---|
| Supported watches | Galaxy Watch 4 and newer — Watch 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, plus Watch FE, Watch Ultra and Watch Ultra 2, including every Classic and Pro variant |
| Already on it | Galaxy Watch 8 shipped with it, Watch 9 and Watch Ultra 2 ship with the newer Wear OS 7, and Samsung finished the rollout to every older eligible watch in December 2025 |
| Not supported | Galaxy Watch 3 and older, and Gear-series watches — these run Tizen, not Wear OS |
| Still on older software? | Update the watch from the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone — One UI 8 Watch is available for it |
| Phone | Android, paired with the watch in the Galaxy Wearable app |
| Price | Free. No account, no sign-up |
Not sure which version you have? On the watch: Settings → About watch → Software information.
