About this app

Ever wanted to have a little bit of the past on your wrist? Introducing Gazette: A newspaper watch face for WearOS (Galaxy watches, Pixel watches, etc). the day of the week is the masthead, the time is the headline, and the rest falls onto a broadsheet grid. This offers a vintage, retro watch face perfect for those who are a fan of the printed press! Inspired by the newspapers of the early 20th century.

THE MASTHEAD

The weekday runs the width of the dial in a heavy blackletter face with an oversized dropped initial - the way a paper's nameplate carries its title. Up to 6 different fonts for customization!

THE HEADLINE, DECK & FOLIO

The main time sits as the main feature of the paper. A deck line under it shows the full date until you assign a complication to it.…

Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.

Method and limits

What this report can and cannot show

What a missing label means

Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.

Limits of this report

  • A package scan is static. It identifies code and text in one Android build. It does not measure a live ad session, test a deletion request, or count the steps needed to cancel.
  • Reviews keep their sample. A review-only charge shows distinct reviewers, the share and the sample size, and is published only once it clears that label’s published threshold. Calibration labels are machine-drafted and not yet confirmed by a person.
  • Not assessed is a state. It is never a zero and never a pass.
  • A missing label is not a clean bill of health. It means the evidence did not support one, not that the app is problem-free.
Not yet human-reviewed. A human review gives an app hands-on, recorded measurements. None has been run for this app. Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
