The Balance 2 has only just been released (in China), and currently there’s no official information about how its watch faces work or if they differ from the original Balance. Most likely, it will support the same faces — so you can try using Balance-compatible ones for now. We’ll update the app/site if something changes officially.

From testing by creating a watchface with the official tools, it can be seen that Balance and Balance2 are in the same category.
I have tried creating a watchface and exporting it to Balance2 model and trying to install it in my Balance. It works. Personally, I think that the image management of Balance2 should be the same as Balance, so I expect that Balance watchface can be used on Balance2 as well.
However, if there are new API capabilities added in Balance2, it is possible that it will not be done properly in Balance.
But I have not seen that in the official editor, which still uses API 1 to manage. So, in conclusion, if a watchface created by the official tools, If I understand correctly, it can be used with Balance2 and Balance.

Hope the information is useful.
Best regards.

Thank you very much for the detailed information and for taking the time to test it out — it’s really helpful and appreciated.

Given what you’ve found, do you think it makes sense to create a separate filter (in existing category) for the new Balance2 model at this point? Or would it be better to keep things as they are for now, since compatibility appears to be the same?

I'm not sure either since I haven't seen an official Balance2 dial yet, but overall I think it can fits into the same category as the Balance watchface. However, if it is subdivided in subset on Balance area, it will look more organized.

Thank you! That makes sense.

We’ll wait a bit and see if any significant differences appear between the Balance and Balance2 watch faces. If it turns out there are important distinctions, we’ll definitely add a separate filter within the Balance category to keep things organized.

Appreciate your input as always!

release date 24/7 en Europe....

Watch faces from Balance work on Balance2. However, not all watch faces from Balance2 work correctly on Balance. There are problems with the encoding of some images, and new features do not work.

I have been using the Amazfaces iOS app for years GTR3, TRex2, Balance, Active 2, and Bip6. Even with the newer watches I was able to connect and load my personal faces to those. I just got a Balance 2 and the Amazfaces app doesn’t detect it and choosing Balance>Balance 2 doesn’t work either.

I was only able to upload them here and use developer mode to scan the resulting QR code.

If you want to report or inform about Amazface app, I suggest you to create a new post in Amazface app area. ( viewforum.php?f=23 ) In that area you will probably get the correct and fast answer.
