The Google seems to be gearing up for a new update for Android Wear , which promises to be big and good news for users and, especially, some features users Apple Watch are already taking advantage of. According to the report of Phandroid, among the new features would be the interactive faces at the clock and the ability to emojis and send doodles to friends .
An update was being awaited for the 28th of July, and Google is planning to bring gestures touches and launch the brand of a new method of communication between watches your system. The site says that thanks to the information received, it was possible to have some first impressions of the coming news
Wear Watches with Android using basic gestures of the touch screen. – Slide up and see notifications down to access the menu of quick sets, slid to the left to open the launcher and hold the tap to switch the dials of watches. But there are other Google has not seized. For example, some faces developed by third parties supports the one-touch, but it can cause some problems in the system because it is not a feature officially supported by Google. With the next update Android Wear, that could change.
Google can use the unique touch to the new interactive faces, according to Phandroid, and following the example of Apple Watch, faces can be displayed in simple views, information widgets or something more complex for things like weather information and steps the user has on a walk, and can play to load a corresponding application.
In the documentation available for Phandroid, Google provides four cases as examples of use for the touch gesture. These include aesthetic changes to the faces, state changes revealing more information, and charging an activity
The company has provided resources for developers and, according to the report, they are already “actively working in the clock faces to support this new feature.” When the update is released, Google will show interactive faces in a new section in the Play Store.
In addition, the giant was preparing the new method of communication with the feature called “Together”.
“Stay together, sending messages directly to the face of his friend watch,” says the description found along with a few lines of code in updates, which demonstrate the ability to send, to Apple Watch mode, doodles, photos, emojis, labels, and messages.
As the report highlights, a strange curiosity is that the Together appears to be restricted at this point to a single watch face. It is unknown whether this feature will be released as a system or application will be connected to this particular display. The first option would be very intuitive and more interessamte for users to send and receive messages on the face of watches. The information available is old and with the rapid development of Google, there is no way to make sure we are the resource will indeed come, or how it will be made available, in the long run.
