Settings Icon in WearOS Phone App

[mattwakeman]

Hello,

Your watch face is awesome, I love it.

It's the first watch face that is exposing a settings screen from the WearOS companion app.

Few questions

• How do you do this?
• Can you please expose some of the watch face settings via this UI?

Thanks

Matt

Hi Matt!

I believe the settings screen is exposed through defining com.google.android.wearable.watchface.companionConfigurationAction in the watch manifest, and adding the proper intent-filters in the phone-app manifest. You can read more about it here in the Android docs.

It looks like @LayoutXML has started work on the companion app, but there's still a fair bit of work that remains before it can be released. Once it's finished you should be able to change all the settings that you can on your watch.
