i made a helper app today with same files injave shared for a watchface snd its working just fine.
The download button in my project shared is the main background and i have not added any button. also the toast is working as well.
ensure you have copied data correctly and have rebuilt project after copying this is very important and there are no errors in project.especially copying to build.gradle file is important and java file also
When you build scroll down after you enter your passwords there is a Label that is supposed to show. Initially it is based on the Project Name but you can change it.
This only shows in the apps tray and I assume in Play Store. It is supposed to show in the long press to change watch faces but I think that is in the next release.
thanks so much for the fast response - very much appreciated. I have the latest Flamingo Build and this ‘Label’ field does not show up but I found I can do a search/replace which seems to work.
Another question: By default the built app name is ‘app-release.apk’ - do I need to give the app a different name and where would I do that or is using the default name ok?
The package name in WFS It is the very top box in the build settings and the .aab and .apk extensions are added to that
the package name must have at least two segments (one or more dots).
Each segment must start with a letter.
All characters must be alphanumeric or an underscore [a-zA-Z0-9_].
Hi Ron - sorry for the not being clearer - by ‘the default built app name is ‘app-release.apk’ I meant the .apk or .aab that is created in Android Studio. I did a ‘search in files’ in my Android Studio’ project but could not find any reference to this ‘app-release.apk’ file name.
I managed to build the Android Studio watch face companion app bundle. Now when I upload both to production in Google ConsoIe I get the error:
This APK will not be served to any users because it is completely shadowed by one or more APKs with higher version codes. Remove this APK from your release or review the targeting and version codes of the APKs that you are including in this release.
My .aab uploads are:
Watch face:
VersionCode: 5 (VersionName 5.0.0)
Companion App:
VersionCode: 6 (VersionName 5.1.0)
I followed the video of Murtaza ‘Create Simple Companion app for WearOS Watch Faces’.
If someone could help me with this one that would be great since I am not sure what is wrong here…

I don’t know about Android Studio projects, but the way you upload the bundled apps changed in March and I think that is why you are getting the error. See this Topic on how to upload them now
@Osman thank you mate but i know that ways, is there a way with android studio ? i opened watchface apk file with android studio, I don’t know what to do next
