Notes and recommendations
- Pixel values are presented as width × height in portrait orientation. Swap for landscape wallpaper assets.
- Use center-crop strategies when creating watch wallpapers so important content remains visible within round/square watch face cutouts.
- For best quality, export wallpapers at the device pixel dimensions listed above. When supporting multiple watches, include the largest practical size and derive smaller assets by downscaling.
