Watch face Studio App bundle. to playstore

Watch Face Studio
1

Hello
I have been trying to figure out how to get Watch face studio to output a “app bundle” file
as google and the play store is not accepting APK’s.
Is it possible to generate a app bundle file?
if so how?

HI Rob,

Just build it, it generates an .aab file which is Android App Bundle. You set where the files will be in your pancakes menu → preferences General Settings if you aren’t seeing the .aab file see what that is set for.

Hi Ron, I am having the same issue, when I build using Galaxy Watch Studio, it outputs a .tpk file?

Yes Galaxy Watch Studio is for Tizen platform watch faces (Galaxy Watch 3 and older) so it creates a .tpk file

Galaxy Watch 4 and 5 are Wear OS powered by Samsung based and you use Watch Face Studio for those watches that use an aab (android app bundle). You can’t convert a very simple .tpk to an .aab file using the converter tool. but it probably is easier to learn to use Watch Face Studio and do it right.

Unfortunately the Documentation is pretty rudimentary for WFS so don’t be shy about asking questions here.

Enjoy Watch Face Designing it can be habit forming. :slight_smile:
