A couple of days ago, Google announced that Android Wear will get a major update in the coming weeks that will bring support for Wi-Fi, always on apps, the ability to draw emojis, and more. It’s no surprise that the companion Android Wear app just received an update in preparation for some of these changes, but it also adds a couple of new goodies.
When you open the app for the first time after the update, you will notice a screen asking you to accept that your watch will be connected to Wi-Fi via CloudSync. You will however still need to enable CloudSync in the settings. I should note that none of this matters until your watch receives the new update.
The main screen is also different in that it gives you a chance to watch a video showing you the features of your watch. You will also find sections for “Jump into action with watch apps” and “Try out watch notifications.”
Another new feature is the ability to pair more than one watch and easily switch between them without having to re-pair them. I am not sure how many people own multiple Android Wear watches, but it’s a nice feature to have.
The Settings have also changed in that there are now two settings screens. The first page is more general and includes a new option for Calendar settings in which you can select what types of events will show on the watch itself. You can tap on the device to open a second page of settings that include the usual stuff like “Tilt to wake” and “Card Previews.”
This update is rolling out slowly so you might not see it in Google Play as available to you for several days, but we have the APK download link for you if you’re impatient and want to sideload now.
