Galaxy Watch face

Galaxy Watch for Tizen
1

There are two things that I would like to ask and I hope that this is the right topic.

I am trying to develop a watch face and Tizen wearable application.

  1. Is it possible to get the data from the server (any data) and display it in the watch face? Is it better to develop in native or web? Or using Watch Studio?

  2. If the above question is possible, is it possible to open my wearable application from the customized watch face? For example by pressing a particular area in the watch face.

Thank you.

You would have to do it with Tizen Studio development. Either web app or Native can do this.

This is probably easier to do with Galaxy Watch Studio. If you create the app on for the watch you can open any app (if you know the package ID) with a button on a custom watch face with GWS.
But if you wanted a constant read out or something like that you’d need to do it with Tizen Studio and developing watch faces with Tizen Studio is harder.

Thank you so much for your reply.

So is it possible for me to show the data from the server even with the Galaxy Watch Studio? And I don’t really understand what “constant read out” is. Does it include my situation?

Thank you.

It is possible to open an app with Galaxy Watch Studio but you can’t show it in a Watch Face you can only open the app with a tap action.

Constant read out like the battery level or steps where it is updated on the watch face.
