Android developers board?

General General Discussion
1

I’ve perused through the boards under Android Software & Development and none seem to be specific to implementation questions/solutions for people developing APKs specific to android watches.

Coming from android phone development there are a lot of things specific to watches that are new/strange/wonderful

Some examples:

  1. How do I make my app the “watch app”?  (settings->other->app settings->watch app)
  2. How do I detect that I am in round or square mode?
  3. Ins and outs of various sensors
  4. Someone on one of the Android Software & Development boards asked about a tutorial.  That would be a nice thread to have pinned to a “coders” board?

Thoughts?
Answers to examples 1 or 2?

  1. in the settings on the watch? you might be able to prompt the user to use your app as default. “watch app” just means default phone/calling app
  2. By the resolution I guess - if the resolution is 400x400 its in round mode, if its something like 350x350 its in square mode
  3. Shouldn’t be any harder on watches than phones(I don’t know how though)
  4. can’t hurt to have a tutorial
