Make Your Existing App Android Wear Compatible
- 1. Android Wear Yep, it is wearable now!
- 2. Who am I? Co-Founder / CEO at Android&iOS Developer Co-Organizer at GDG Ankara Android Evangelist
- 3. ADD ‘15
- 5. Wearables are Everywhere You can catch the trend with Android Wear! It is easy to implement
- 6. Even for iOS now!
- 8. If you send your notifications to your app, it appears on Wear, too! Only if you use NotificationCompat class
- 9. Example pI = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, new Intent(this,MainActivity.class), 0); pIExtra = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL),0);
- 10. Example NotificationCompat.Action action = new NotificationCompat.Action.Builder(android.R.dra wable.ic_btn_speak_now, "Reply!",pIExtra).build();
- 11. Example NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this) .setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher) .setContentTitle("TEST") .setContentText("Test Mesasge!") .extend(new NotificationCompat.WearableExtender().addAction(action)); mBuilder.setContentIntent(pI); mBuilder.setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND); mBuilder.setAutoCancel(true); NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager)this.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); mNotificationManager.notify(1, mBuilder.build());
- 12. Example It will be shown on the handset as usual. But if an Android Wear is connected to the handset, it will be look like this! >
- 18. EVEN
- 19. Setting Up!
- 20. Wear Emulator & Android Device Create an Android Wear emulator Install Android Wear app to your phone Connect your phone to your computer Open up Terminal and make the port forwarding via this command: adb -d forward tcp:5601 tcp:5601 Run the Android Wear Emulator and select “pair with emulator” option from Android Wear app
- 21. It is DONE! You can start to develop for Android Wear, now! A little DEMO! :)
- 22. Thank You! Let’s keep in touch @orhunmertsimsek mert@4pps.co Slide: http://goo.gl/BdsCrP

- * Introduction * Thanks jPrime and JUG community * will talk about Android Wear
- * google developer groups ankara
- some of the android wear devices samsung, intel, motorola, lg round and square ones
- activity tracking(running, exercising) apps monitoring your heart rate messaging apps phones’ batteries last longer with android wear don’t need to check phone on every little sound!
- now, how to make our existing apps, wearable compatible the easiest one, notifications
- the same notification will be seen in the Android Wear device as well. The only thing to do is using NotificationCompat class to create notifications. in the picture, you can see an example screenshot of hangouts app, both on handset and wear.
- So how to make this? first of all create pending intents that will be triggered when actions are called on notifications. These are like usual notifications on handset. in this example there are two pending intents, first one opens the MainActivity, the second one opens the dialler application.
- * Then we create an action with NotificationCompat class. It is for an extra button for the notification.
- Then again we use NotificationCompat class to build a notification. The trick of the code is, we add the “action” that we created on previous slide, just to shown on the wearable device, not on the handset. It is done by NotificationCompat.WearableExtender() If you add actions by using this, these actions will only shown on wears.
- This is how it will look like, almost. The notification will be shown on the handset, either. But without the “Reply” action.
- The comparison of the notifications on handset and wear. As you see, there are less information, less detail on the wear. So we should care about this. Simple is the best, especially on the Wear! :)
- Some example screens of wear notifications. You can also get input from wear. Especially with voice, but if it is not possible you can get input with short commands. Like yes,no,maybe. They are useful for the environment that is not suitable to get voice input.
- The other thing to make your Android app, Android Wear compatible is the “REAL WEAR APPS” They are almost like usual Android apps, but with less resource. I will not talk about the Android Wear apps in detail. But let’s look it a little.
- These are some of the Android Wear apps on the Play Store There are lots of Wear apps on the Play Store and their amount is increasing day by day.
- A calculator app for wear, a screen light app, and an app that has a great ux/ui for wearables — a weather app.
- YES, there is no limit with your imagination. Just one limit! Resource :) You must care for battery, ram, cpu of the Wearable device.
- now let’s set up the development environment. we just need the android studio and the latest sdk’s of android and android wear. And an Android device also :)
- There is one important thing to take care. Every time that you connect your phone to the computer via USB, you should make the port forwarding again. Otherwise, the Wear emulator and the phone will not be paired.
- Yes we are ready now. Let’s make a demo
- Thank you for listening me. I am very happy to be here. Thanks again to jPrime team! You can contact me via twitter and e-mail. Now, if we have enough time, i can try to answer your questions.
