October 20, 2014 No CommentsAndroid wear entered the market trying the change the whole smart attitude that devices held till then. This renewed affair with smartness that Android wear brought in revolutionized the whole world of technology. While Android brought in revolution, developers are still working on how to bring out the best in Android wear devices.
A lot of apps and third party apps later, Android’s wearable devices have some real cool apps that promise good interface, incredible experience and an enhanced productivity. Here are 8 such apps that have been released for Android’s wearable devices.
Wear Mini Launcher
Most apps devised for wearable devices have been constructed using the Google Now approach. They are intuitive and appear only when they feel their appearance is necessary. Most apps appear on floor when there is a voice commanding their arrival. Wear mini launcher tries to remove such approaches and brings forward a completely different style and approach. This launcher is activated when you swipe near the top left of the device. With this launcher comes a lot of installed apps. So no more intuitive appearance; swipe to get your app!
Wear App Manager
This tool is extremely important for a wearable device. Some apps have wear functionality, but you will not be aware of it as it does not express its functionality. Some of the apps installed to your phone are hidden, or you remain unaware about their functionality. This way you don’t use the apps that possess wear functionality. Bring all of that to an end with the wear app manager. You get to manage the apps that have wear functionality and use them. This manager tells you which apps on the phone have the wear functionality.
Facer
You have a certain watch face staring out of your Android wear. Won’t you get bored with the same face staring at you time and again? If you want to bring an end to the boredom, try using the facer app that comes with the Android wear. This app helps you get all the watch faces present in the store and allows you to change the watch face of your wear anytime anywhere
BeeLink
Interested in pairing your wear with multiple devices? The default of an Android wear is that it pairs with a single device at a time. But, that does not mean you cannot pair with other devices. If you wish to multilink the devices at a single time, you can use a tool which is called BeeLink. This way you can connect personal and work phone as well as your tablet to your wear simultaneously. This makes multitasking wearable and bearable.
Wear Tasker
Android wear does not allow you to automate any tasks. But with tasker you can scroll through the tasks and choose any one while connected to your Android wear. Of course it won’t allow you to trigger the different task functions using your wrist. But, you can use tasker and launch a task using the scroll. So, what if your wrist can’t do the job; get it done with tasker with ease and complete attitude.
Unified Remote
Till date you used the Unified Remote to access all the functions on your computer using a phone. How about using the wear to access and control the computer? Yes, the same Unified Remote that was available on your phone has been connected to the wear as well. Of course it is a Beta version as of now. But it is as good as the original app based of the phone. Drag your mouse along the different contents, open a folder and shut your computer while sitting away from it using your wear.
Wear Tip Calculator
Calculators on your wear device do not give out a good interface sound! But, then wear tip calculator changes the whole thing. Accessing calculator and utilizing the various functions like input, percentage etc. on your wear device with wear tip calculator is not just a great experience but also pretty fun.
TinyCam
If you have home security cameras, then this app allows your wear to get in touch with the home security cameras. Now you can keep an eye on your home while away with Tinycam on wear. Of course it eats up a lot of bandwidth and can drain away your battery, but once streaming the video seems fine.
