I keep telling myself I'll start to learn native android development but everytime I even attempt, it's just so overwhelming!
Just purchased a moto 360 gem 2 so I want to get into watch app development or even just watch faces but can't even work out how to do anything :-(
Ugh, guess I'll have to swallow my pride and tutorial it up!2 -
So it's a sad day that I say goodbye to my moto 360 gen 2, purchased a ticwatch C2 and here's hoping the OLED screen and NFC capabilities are worth giving up my favourite watch...

I've created a small app for WearOS that helps pilots and passengers pick an airport as their destination and gives them ETA, direction, and weather. Due to Google's new policy, I cannot publish it until at least 20 testers have used it for two weeks :(
Are you interested in fiddling around with a very simple WearOS app while commuting to work, school, party etc for two weeks?
Here is a short video of the app running in Android Emulator:

Here's the description of java.lang.NoSuchMethodError from https://developer.android.com/refer...
"...Normally, this error is caught by the compiler; this error can only occur at run time if the definition of a class has incompatibly changed."
Now, what are the chances of your app crashing on customer's device because of this, when calling an OS function, VibrationEffect.createPredefined(VibrationEffect.EFFECT_DOUBLE_CLICK)? In my case, it's 50/50. Lesson learned Google. try{}catch{} around every line of code from now on to deal with your stupidity.4 -
Original rant here

So, I see a need, I write an app, and hit a brick wall... writing the app itself took less time than trying to find testers to satisfy Google's new policy. Even the fruit company doesn't force you to go find 20 needs to test your app.
So fat I've got 15 testers... are there five more lurking around here?6
