This is not the end of what Google has prepared for this year’s I/O. They have announced the Wear OS 4 with many new features, including:
The Watch Face Format has been made with Samsung for developers to have an easier way to develop watch faces. It won’t require programming APKs as Wear OS will render the watch face so developers have fewer things to worry about as the watch faces will be more power-efficient.
Wear OS 4 will also extend battery life and let you back up and restore your watch without factory resetting the watch (finally 😁). It will also bring new and improved accessibility features like text-to-speech. The developer preview and emulator images for Wear OS 4 are available today, and they’ll come to consumers later this year.
