G-Watch Wear App uses arrow characters for trend arrows. Some fonts has a blue square painted around the 45up and 45down trend arrows. This is not a bug or a feature of G-Watch, it is a feature of fonts used on the watch. The default GW4 fonts has it also,
If you want to get rid of this blue square around the arrows, change the system font style: open system settings on the watch, go to Display settings, scroll down to Font settings and change Font style. For example "Samsung One" font style works very well, you won't see any blue square around BG trend arrow any more...
If you don't like G-Watch watch faces and you don't care about BG graph, you can use G-Watch Wear App built-in complication provider to get BG values to your favorite watch face.
In your favorite watch face select the G-Watch BG Provider complication:
The following example shows its usage in Samsung Digital watch face distributed with GW4 watch (top-left complication):
If you want to see the BG graph then tap on the G-Watch complication. It opens a screen with the BG graph:
On some non-Samsung Wear OS watch the complication can be rendered so that the BG value is smaller than the delta text. In this case use the 'Swap complication text' option on the BG Panel configuration page (at the very bottom of the options list). The BG Panel options are the same for both watch faces.
