[FR] Speed + battery display on Android Wear(Watch)

[ebabel]

Android Wear support

Apparently the iOS watch does all this!
• Low battery alert
• Regeneration alert (battery overcharge warning when going downhill)
• Point of no return message (50% battery charge left)
• Battery fully charged notification
• New top speed message
• Wheelslip detection
• Consumption display: tells you how much percentage of a full battery charge you have already burned
• Regeneration display: tells you how much percentage of a full battery charge you have regenerated (when going downhill or braking)
• Estimated remaining range according to your current riding profile
• Total odometer display
• Speed display
• Board live movement display: shows the movement of your board
• Auto connect to your favorite Onewheel
• Board name: give your Onewheel a name
• Apple Watch app
• Social sharing and online leaderboards
• GPS track recording

@kwatkins can you tell me how many people use the app with an android version of less than sdk 23? Should be available to see in the play console.
It looks like this is the ideal min version for Android Wear. Maybe not a deal-breaker but more work.

[kwatkins]

Close to 8% are running versions under 6.0/SDK 23 - and those are Android 5.x. Don't see it as a deal breaker. It's more how many active users are actually using android wear watches and would use the feature... personally I haven't seen a good enough watch to make it worthwhile.

Even though I agree with you about the watches, there is interest on the forums. I think maybe I'll lower the priority on this ticket and eventually maybe look into how to keep 5.0 support while adding the wear. I know its possible just not sure how much of a pita.

There is a watch app for the OW on the store for $6, so its not like they are just high and dry.

[kwatkins]

Agreed
