Calendars Complications on Apple Watch

Apple Watch complications are small snippets of information that can be displayed on the watch face. They provide quick access to relevant data and allow users to personalize their watch face to suit their needs and preferences. 

One of the main benefits of Apple Watch complications is the ability to glance at important information without having to open specific apps. Users can customize their watch face by choosing which complications to include and where to position them. This way, they can prioritize the information they find most useful and easily access it with a quick glance at their wrist.

The Calendars app offers these complications: 

  • Create an Event
  • Create a Task
  • Today’s Date
  • Events
  • Tasks

We’ve added a brand new task creation complication in the latest update of the app. 

Here’s how you can add complications to your Apple Watch: 

  1. Start by unlocking your Apple Watch and ensuring that it is connected to your iPhone.
  2. On your iPhone, open the Watch app. 
  3. Once the Watch app is open, navigate to the "My Watch" tab located at the bottom of the screen.
  4. Scroll down and tap on the "Face Gallery" option. This will display a collection of watch faces that you can choose from.
  5. Browse through the available watch faces and tap on the one you want to customize. You can choose a pre-existing watch face or create a new one by tapping the "+" button.
  6. After selecting a watch face, tap on the Customize button to enter the customization mode.
  7. Swipe left or right to access the different sections of the watch face. Look for the area on the watch face where you want to add a complication.
  8. When you find the desired location, firmly press the watch face (Force Touch) to enter the customization menu.
  9. In the customization menu, you'll see a list of available complications. Tap on the one you want to add to the watch face.
  10. Once you've finished adding complications, press the Digital Crown on your Apple Watch to save the changes and exit the customization mode.


Your Apple Watch will automatically sync the changes you made on the iPhone, and you'll see the new complications on your selected watch face.

Note: Our newly designed complications are available for watchOS 9 or later.
