I just got a new, to me, a Galaxy watch 5 pro and I am only able to hold 4 faces on the watch and my Galaxy watch 3 held way more than that. Any ideas???

The GW5 Pro is running on WearOS and works differently with Facer than the GW3 watch running Tizen. To see all the watchfaces scroll right past the 3 you are seeing and you will see a hashed circle with a plus sign (+) in the middle. Click that and it will open up a menu. Scroll down on the menu until you see “Recently used” and tap that. It will then show you all your watchfaces that you have used up to this point.
Also, if you want to delete any watchfaces, the first 3 can be deleted using a long press. The watchface will start twisting back and forth and you will see a red dot with a white minus sign (-) on the top right of the face. Tap that red dot and it will question you if you want to delete it. Just answer yes and it will be gone.

Thank you, sir, I got it now. Kinda weird the way it’s being done on the watch though.

Change is hard but will become second nature just before the next one.
My forum signature before the turn of the centaury, and for several years after was: Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
The lines will blur, I think, between WearOs native and WearOs Tizen Skinned as the partnership between Samsung and Google Grows. We see it already in the new Android 15 releases that announced groundbreaking features that Samsung phones had sported for years and the Samsung phones seem to have early access to Android beta before other, non-google 3rd parties so can leverage them sooner.
I’m locked in to Samsung for the S-Pen (Note 1,2,3,4,8,10, S23U) but still went for the Fossil Gen6 on my first watch.
Went for a reconditioned GW6 for the next as I couldn’t afford £300 and the 7 didn’t do Facer. But as I am locked in to the S-Pen… The health mashup between watch and phone is fantastic.

Haven’t used my 5 pro lately and when I went back to it, charged it back up, turned it on and then I got 2 updates and now what you said above isn’t working, I only see one face at a time.
That is how all my faces on the watch are for my updated ones. My Fossil Carlyle and my Galaxy “Classic” first gen are still “normal”. The only place where the watchfaces show that you have used are in the Facer phone app now. You can find them at the bottom by clicking “watchbox” then at the top “recent”. BUT that only works if you have Facer Plus. I have two phones with different watches attached. My main phone has Facer Plus and I have my recent faces. But my phone for testing watchfaces and the one watch attached to it does not have plus and I have no recent faces showing. Just a button that says “upgrade”.
Thanks sir, I see now and yes I have premium/plus
