I would really love to be able to get OTP pin codes on my watch.

The way I am imagining it is this: scroll through the list of configured tokens on your watch until you get to the one you need, tap it, and you get the pin. the whole management of configured tokens would still be on the watch.

Can this be done?

Well, it can be done but the effort is a lot. And Wear OS 3.0 was released and there are quite some changes also. I really like the Wear OS 1.x design that app can easily share data and require main app for the wear app to function. Newer wear os is much more complicated to develop

IT actually works on Android Wear but UI is kind of clunky to use (Especially on a round display), and importing existing tokens is a pain. So UI redesign for Wear would even make the current app pretty usable.

Yea, if you install the APK on wear os, it may just work. But it requires the app to sue the Wear OS API to be watch friendly. The most difficulty part is how to synchronize the Wear OS and phone app.

What I would like to see on my watch is just the list of all existing tokens, then scroll through it, tap one, and get the OTP pin.

Everything else (import/export/add new tokens/etc) should just stay on the phone or tablet...
