Great app BUT it stopped working for me :( Now everything says it's connected and should be working but it just doesn't work. It stopped working as soon as I toggled the flashlight on. A pity, though, because the app itself is very useful. Update: reinstalled it and it started working again. Let's see how long it will last.
Got potential, but some apps don't have icons in the app tray and the interactive options icons are muddled. Their could be more options for the interactive options icons too - should be any emoji. I'm using purely with interactive options with limited apps, due to the above. Will look at alternatives if not fixed.
Warning: it does NOT support Wear 2.0. They do not specify this in their description, and they should, since every Android Wear device is being upgraded to that. I tried installing it and I couldn't because Wear 2.0 doesn't allow for apps on the phone to install watch apps. There needs to be a separate watch app and there is none. Don't bother trying this if you've upgraded to 2.0.
Don't bother with this app. It was difficult to set up and use, plus it was very cluttered and hard to work with. Also, I've uninstalled it from my phone, but I can't seem to uninstall it from my watch. It shows up on the main menu of apps, but not under My Apps through the app store, so I have no way to uninstall it.
An ad popped up in the middle of reading in my browser. I understand having ads pop up while in the app, but not this intrusive behavior of having ads pop up in totally unrelated apps. I know the ad came from this app because when I pressed the recents button it said Wear Mini Launcher and it had the ad in it.
It has potential. But why can I not customize the drawer to a different position? UPDATE 2021: It used to work fine with my first gen Android watch. Now it only briefly worked with my second gen watch, and soon stopped working entirely.
Huawei Watch 2 - does not work. I really wanted to love this launcher!! Worked great on watch for about 5 minutes and then crashed and would not restart even after watch reboot. Watchface just gave a blank, black screen. (n.b. Checked permissions and all were granted.)
Great app, once set up through the app on phone which is pretty straight forward all works great. Some google app icons dont show in the launcher app drawer though like Play Store, Play Music etc.
Worked well enough for a few minutes, but then it just crashed and kept crashing when trying to restart. Not worth it.
Works well with Sony smartwatch 3. Using it in conjunction with Wear media to implement music and podcasts with relatively ease of use.
Ok the phone cleaner can be disabled, and the app does work again on Sony SmartWatch 3 after launching the app on the watch and granting it some sort of weird USB-permission. 5 stars again! Thanks!
Works well for me on my Asus Zen 2. Except that 2 Google icons (maps & keep) don't display on the interactive screen. Be nice to get that fixed.
Good app, but it gives me intrusive ads while not in the app. Terrible practice and cant have that on my phone (the ad said I should clean data off my phone cause my storage is low)
For me the quick setting are working flawlessly except starting the hotspot. This is the only reason for me to not uninstall the app.
Added popup ads on my phone in latest update, time to watch your reputation go up in flames I guess. Shame, it was otherwise I great app
Keeps showing "You watch is not connected" notice. It IS. Every other app I use recognises this. Uninstalled.
I forgot this app was installed but recently has been taking over my phone homepage and showing full page ads.
perform most of the task i need only one thing left is a button start music app on phone, when it is yet start
Useless stop working on my watch for no reason after 2 years of use.
used to be great, now constantly crashes on my LG G watch
Nice idea. Doesn't work on my Huawei watch though.
I don't know what's wrong with this app, works for a minute and then stop
didnt work on tic watch pro android wear 2.0
keeps freezing after a while
Please update !!!!!!!!!!!!!! 5star update bug fixes
Somehow I can't get the hotspot tethering toggle to work
Been using this app for a few months now and it's very handy for those who don't want to shuffle though the app drawer all the time. HOWEVER, recently the app has been either crashing or uninstalling itself from my Sony Smartwatch 3 and I'm not sure why. It even caused my watch to restart once which never happens. I assume this was due to an update recently, that and the possibility that AW 1 isn't being supported a much as AW 2 these days but the latter is just a guess. If you have a Sony Smartwatch 3, be advised that you might experience similar problems and should look elsewhere until it's been patched.
