The Android Wear application is updated to version 1.1 (APK)

More news regarding A. If a few days ago we were talking about updating the operating system with interesting news, today it is the turn of the application for phones that is necessary for synchronization with smartwatches. The new version of the development created by the Mountain View company itself is 1.1 and, in addition, it is possible to get the installation APK.

The fact is that to support the novelties that come to smart watches in firmware mode (and that the deployment has not yet started as far as is known), from Google they want to have everything ready and, therefore, they have begun to roll out the update of the Android Wear application. And, the truth is that new arrivals that are included are the most interesting and in different sections.

What's new in Android Wear

For starters, the user interface has been redesigned, although not completely. For example, the section in which the paired watch is seen at the top remains immovable. Of course, the rest of the information is now visible as cards Google Now type, so an important step is taken in this direction and in the unification with the rest of the works of the Mountain View company. Besides, access to the Play Store is much more visible, and the truth is that this is appreciated since now being able to get new developments is much easier.

New version of Android Wear

 WiFi on Android Wear

Also in the new version of Android Wear is prepared to support the WiFi connectivity, which can be used without problems for the synchronization of information in the cloud, such as that of Google Fit. By the way, in the development configuration section it is possible to change the possibility of using wireless networks manually, so all options are covered.

More news, and they are important

Perhaps the most interesting is the support that from now on Android Wear offers to be able to access multiple smartwatches, which are selected from the menu at the top right. The truth is that this offers a simpler and more optimal process when it comes to using different smart watches (perhaps not many have more than one accessory, but the possibility exists is positive).

Finally, it must be said that the section of the Configuration It also includes news, since it is now divided into two, such as general and specific. By the way, I really liked that now it is possible to receive notifications of the events of all the calendars in which the user is registered, and not only in the main one.

If you want to get the new version of Android Wear before it arrives through the Play Store (it is important to know that version 3.7.27 from the Google store is installed by default), you can download the APK corresponding in this link. Once achieved, simply click on the file and proceed to the installation as usual.
