Google started to release Android 7.0 Nougat for the Nexus devices, but none of the smartwatches have received the update to Android Wear 2.0 corresponding. The beta test is running for a few months and today, Google has released the developer preview 3. However, it seems that Google will only give continuity to this developer preview release in 2017.
The developer preview 3 brings several important changes, including support for the Play Store on the device itself. Google justified this decision, noting that the developers want a better exploration of applications, and studies with users have shown that they want to manage applications on the smartwatch. Thus, it will be possible to browse, install and uninstall applications in the Android Wear 2.0. You don’t have to install everything on your smartphone. In addition, also other aspects have been improved, such as notifications and the intelligent answers.
However, times set by Google for the release have undergone some changes. Previously the company announced that the update would begin to be released this Autumn, but the initial feedback on the beta has not been positive. Now, Google claims that the developer preview 3 will extend up to early 2017, and there will still be a developer preview 4. Thus, only in late Winter or early Spring is that we can see the version Android Wear 2.0 of the official.
