Extract text from HWT files
To convert your HWT file to another format, you need Huawei Theme Studio or other Settings software.
To convert other file formats to the "Smartwatch Theme Package" file type, you need software like Huawei Theme Studio or a similar tool.
A .HWT file is a theme package used primarily for Huawei smartwatches (such as the Huawei Watch GT series) and smartphones running the EMUI interface. Internally, this file is simply a standard ZIP archive that contains the graphical assets (icons, background PNG images) and configuration data (description.xml) required to style the device's user interface. Users typically encounter these files when downloading custom watch faces from third-party forums like XDA Developers or Telegram groups rather than the official store.
The main drawback for users is that .HWT files are not natively recognized by Windows or macOS, appearing as unknown binary files. Furthermore, installing them often requires specific versions of the Huawei Health app or developer-level tools like Huawei Theme Studio. Users frequently need to convert .HWT files to ZIP to inspect the contents, extract specific background images, or edit the XML code to translate the interface. While the Huawei Theme Studio is the official tool for creation, simply renaming the file extension from .hwt to zip is the most practical method for immediate access to the internal assets.
Convert.Guru analyzes your HWT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted WATCHFACE, TTF, JPG, ZIP, MTZ, OTF, PNG, HWP, JPEG, TXT and MP4 files.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our HWT converter.
