SmartWatch for Torque(OBD/Car)
- it allows you to display gauges from the Torque Pro OBD application on the remote display, so you can have a small digital (or gauge) readout on a separate location of your car
Imagine being able to keep your phone in your pocket and still be able to see a digital boost gauge readout on the LiveView display, or any other OBD2 sensor that Torque can read.
The plugins display will even match the graphical theme you have selected in Torque itself!
The 'SmartWatch' device is a little 'remote display'. You can find them on sites like ebay and they're not too expensive.
Please note: This plugin needs a handset which can handle multiple bluetooth concurrent connections in a reliable manner. Not all handsets are able to do this due to various bluetooth driver bugs so some phones may be a little troublesome to setup.

Very good .and hepful
This is a great extension that works well. However, it needs a quick fix to change the gauge face to fill the whole screen. Right now it's relegated to the upper left corner. I have half a mind to decompile and fix it myself.
I'm enjoying this app, but I would prefer that I could switch between different data readings, instead of display mode. The display mode could be chosen via the settings (and be the same for all data readings), and also there, in the settings, I would like to select a few data readings through which I could switch on my SmartWatch. Hope you like the idea! Great app, thanks!
Display size on the smartwatch 2 is different. Still works, but has a great big border.
Description should clearly state that this only works with Sony. Will rate again when wear support is added.
Needs update then we can see about 5 stars
Doesn't work on Moto 360
Any chance this will be expanded to work on round screens?
But room for improvement
Thanks for porting this!
3 Stars not because I don't like it...but you have to understand that Torque Pro is one if not the must best Car app around, so, why not make this plugin for other smartwatches like Samsung's and iPhone???? That my friends will take you to the top indeed... I waited 3 years before I got my hands on an actual Sony SW1 to try this...I don't regret it, but you guys can make a difference.... let me know when is available for Samsung Electronics and I will be more than happy to change my review.
