TINY CITY – Pixel Town Life

TINY CITY is a pixel-art watch face that follows a small city through its day. Every few hours the view moves to a different place, and the people there live their day: commuters wait for the bus, a baker carries fresh bread, office workers eat lunch on a park bench, kids leave school, the restaurant street fills up in the evening and, late at night, the windows go dark one by one while a cat walks over the roofs.

8 PLACES
• 5–9 am: bus stop – commuters with briefcases, kids with backpacks, a bus every two minutes that picks up the queue
• 9–12: bakery street – baker, shoppers, a café, a dog walk
• 12–2 pm: park – lunch on the bench, people with big coffee cups, pigeons
• 2–5 pm: school gate – kids after school, balloons floating up, an ice-cream cart in summer
• 5–10 pm: restaurant street – evening crowd and delivery scooters
• 10 pm–5 am: rooftops – windows going dark one by one, a cat on the roof, chimney smoke
On Saturdays and Sundays the morning becomes a street market and the afternoon a park festival. You can also keep one place.

WEATHER
With your watch's weather, the city gets clouds, rain with umbrellas and puddles, thunderstorm flashes, falling snow and fog. Without weather data the sky is drawn clear.

SEASONS AND HOLIDAYS
The trees in the park and at the school gate change with the season: cherry blossom in spring, red and gold leaves in autumn, bare snowy branches in winter. Christmas brings a decorated tree and twinkling lights, Halloween brings pumpkins, and fireworks fill the sky just after midnight on New Year's Day.

LITTLE THINGS TO DISCOVER
A fire truck races past every 15 minutes, a dog goes for a walk, balloons float away, a hot-air balloon drifts by on clear afternoons, and a new building in the background rises one floor every day until it is finished at the end of the month.

WHAT YOU GET
• 8 places that follow the time of day and the weekend
• Real weather, seasonal trees and holiday decorations
• Weekday and date above the time
• 12 or 24-hour time following your watch settings
• Always-on display – plain grey time on pure black, about 2% of pixels lit

Long-press the watch face and tap Edit to choose "By time of day" or one place.

BUILT FOR YOUR BATTERY
TINY CITY is written in Google's Watch Face Format. No app code runs on your watch, nothing connects to the internet, and there is no companion phone app to install. The movement runs only while the screen is on.

PRIVACY
The watch face collects no data and asks for no permissions. The weather is drawn on the watch screen only.

COMPATIBILITY
Galaxy Watch4 and later, and other round Wear OS watches running Wear OS 5 or newer (Android 14, API 34 and above).
