Tab action to custom app ID: Recent apps

Watch Face Studio
1

I would like to assign a tab action to a button through Action > Open App > Custom which should go to the ‘Recent Apps’ app.

I found the app ID as:

package:com.samsung.android.apps.wearable.recent

I assume that the ID above would only trigger the ‘Recent Apps’ app for Samsung watches not for other watches like the Pixel watch - is this correct? And if so - is there a ‘non-proprietary’ way to target the ‘Recent Apps’ app?

Thanks for any tips in advance…

I believe pixel watches does not use an app like galaxy watches to show recent apps. I don’t think it is going to work on pixel.

Hi @imrulanwar836 - thanks for the feedback.

Then instead of using a transparent png with an assigned tab action it might be better to use a ‘Small Image Complication’ - this way the user could chose any available app available on the platform him/herself.

Since I don’t like to show an image for the complication and the complications are at the edge of the watch face (12, 3, 6, 9) I assume I could just move the image off-screen so that they would not show and only the transparent tab area remains. Is this correct?
