Wear Ongoing & Interactions 1.0.0

Version 1.0.0-alpha02

February 10, 2021

androidx.wear:wear-ongoing:1.0.0-alpha02 and androidx.wear:wear-phone-interactions:1.0.0-alpha02 are released. Version 1.0.0-alpha02 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Added support for more complex status. They are composed of a template (or several) and a series of Parts that will be used to fill the template's placeholders. OngoingActivityStatus now has a static method to create simple statuses with only one part (a Text or a Timer), and a Builder to create more complex statuses. (I1fe81)
• Move BridgingManager and BridgingConfig classes from Wear Support Library to AndroidX which provides APIs to enable/disable notifications at runtime and optionally set tags for notifications that are exempt from the bridging mode. (I3a17e)

Version 1.0.0-alpha01

January 27, 2021

androidx.wear:wear-ongoing:1.0.0-alpha01, androidx.wear:wear-phone-interactions:1.0.0-alpha01, and androidx.wear:wear-remote-interactions:1.0.0-alpha01 are released. Version 1.0.0-alpha01 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Migrate the Ongoing Activities library to a new sub-library: wear-ongoing. Classes now live in the androidx.wear.ongoing package (previously was androidx.wear.ongoingactivities) (I7c029)

• Create a new support library to contain classes that support interactions from the Wearables to Phones. It is initially populated with classes migrated from Wearable Support Library. (Id5180)

• Migrate PhoneDeviceType class from Wearable Support Library to AndroidX. The migrated class is renamed as PhoneTypeHelper which provides helper methods for determining the type of phone the current watch is paired to, for use on Wearable devices only. (Ibd947)

• Create a new support library to contain classes that support interactions between the Wearables and Phones. It is initially populated with classes migrated from Wearable Support Library. (I9deb4)

• Migrate WatchFaceCompanion class from Wearable Support Library to AndroidX. The migrated class is renamed as WatchFaceConfigIntentHelper which provides helper functions to specify the ID and component name in the watch face configuration activities in companion on the phone, it can also be used locally to configure the watch face on the wearable device. (Ia455f)

Wear Complications and Watchface 1.0.0

Version 1.0.0-alpha08

February 24, 2021

androidx.wear:wear-*:1.0.0-alpha08 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha08 contains these commits.

New Features

• Some watch faces are designed around one or more specific complications, to support this we’ve added Complication.Builder#setFixedComplicationProvider which if set to true prevents the user from changing the complication in that slot.
• The watchface libraries are Kotlin first and use coroutines (e.g. suspend functions). For Java users we’ve provided ListenableFuture wrappers to improve interoperability in the following libraries: wear/wear-watchface-guava, wear/wear-watchface-client-guava & wear/wear-watchface-editor-guava.

API Changes

• We've removed support for double taps on complications launching the provider chooser, this feature wasn't common in watchfaces and complicated the implementation of SysUI. (I3ef24)
• ProviderInfoRetriever methods may throw ServiceDisconnectedException if the binder closes unexpectedly. (Ib2cc4)
• From Android 11 onwards, there are restrictions on when the ProviderChooser can be run, in addition we'd like editors to be built with the new wear-watchface-editor so ComplicationHelperActivity is being removed from the public API. (Ib19c1)
• Remove ComplicationText static methods in favor of builders. (Ibe399)
• We have introduced guava ListenableFuture wrappers for the various watch face library suspended methods. (I16b2c)
• For API clarity we've added a secondary constructor to RenderParameters which doesn't require a tint, for use with LayerModes other than LayerMode.DRAW_OUTLINED. (I497ea)
• Previously ListUserStyleSetting was different from the other because it had a default argument. Now all the StyleSetting subclass constructors take the default value last. (I9dbfd)
• CanvasComplication has been refactored to use have a hidden method, which makes it easier to implement a subclass (I5b321)
• We have refactored away EditorResult in favor of a new EditorService and EditorSession.broadcastState() to stream updates to an observer (typically SysUI). (Ic4370)
• Some watchfaces are built around a particular complication as an integral part of the watch face where the provider is not user configurable. To support this we've added Complication.Builder#setFixedComplicationProvider. (I4509e)
• EditorRequest now specifies package name rather than ComponentName because it was inconvenient for SysUI to look up the class name of the editor, and we only really need the package name. (Ib6814)

Version 1.0.0-alpha07

February 10, 2021

androidx.wear:wear-*:1.0.0-alpha07 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha07 contains these commits.

New Features

• WatchFaceService.createWatchFace is now a suspend function which means the watchface no longer has to block the ui thread while waiting for IO. Similarly wear-watchface-editor and wear-complications-data

API Changes

• Remove PhotoImage class and use Icon directly. (I8a70b)
• Expose the validTimeRange of ComplicationData. (I91366)
• Make image-like attributes more explicit. (I81700)
• wear-watchface-editor and wear-complications-data have been refactored to use suspend functions instead of coroutines. Rx java & Future compat wrappers to follow. (If3c5f)
• ProviderInfoRetriever now now throws PreviewNotAvailableException if requestPreviewComplicationData can't return preview data due to connection issues or lack of API support. (I4964d)
• WatchFaceControlService::createWatchFaceControlClient is now a suspended fuction and getOrCreateWallpaperServiceBackedInteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient is now called getOrCreateWallpaperServiceBackedInteractiveWatchFaceWcsClientAsync returning Deferred<InteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient>. RX java and Future compat wrappers to follow. (I5d461)
• Rename CATEGORY_PROVIDER_CONFIG_ACTION to CATEGORY_PROVIDER_CONFIG. (I7c068)
• Please note createOnWatchEditingSession is now a suspended function because the watchface sometimes isn't available until shortly after the editor activity has started. (Ida9aa)
• WatchFaceService.createWatchFace is now a suspend function which allows for async initialization, previously you would have had to block the main thread. (If076a)
• UserStyle now has an array operator and we've added casting helpers to UserStyle.Option. (I35036)
• We've fixed a marshalling bug with UserStyle wireformats changing some of the unstable hidden API. (I8be09)
• We've added CustomValueUserStyleSetting which lets you store a single application specific string within a UserStyle. The default watch face editors will ignore this value. (Ic04d2)
• InstanceID is not passed in the intent extras for R and older versions of Android WearOS which we can't upgrade. To support this we now allow InstancID to be null. (Id8b78)
• EditorRequest now includes the editor ComponentName which is set as the component in WatchFaceEditorContract.createIntent (I3cd06)
• The watchface EditorResult now includes preview ComplicationData to allow the caller to take a screenshot of the watchface after editing. (I2c561)

Bug Fixes

• Added toString() overrides to UserStyle, UserStyleSetting and UserStyleSchema which makes working with these classes a bit nicer. (I9f5ec)

Version 1.0.0-alpha06

January 27, 2021

androidx.wear:wear-*:1.0.0-alpha06 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha06 contains these commits.

New Features

• We’ve introduced a new library wear/wear-watchface-editor which allows watch face developers and potentially OEMs to build a style and complication editor. SysUI will send an Intent to the watch face which will use the new EditorSession class to access WatchFace details and record the result via Activity.setWatchRequestResult. To support this we’ve added ProviderInfoRetriever.requestPreviewComplicationData which allows watch face editors to request preview ComplicationData. The advantage of preview ComplicationData is unlike live data you don’t have to worry about showing permission dialogs when rendering your editor (note if a user selects a provider with a permission they will still be prompted to grant the permission).

API Changes

• ComplicationProviderInfo now has a field for the provider's ComponentName, support for this field will be added to WearOS at a later date and in the meantime, it will be null. (Id8fc4)
• We've added ProviderInfoRetriever.requestPreviewComplicationData which allows watch face editors to request preview ComplicationData. This is useful because live complications may require permissions and you can now display preview data for complications that are not active. (I2e1df)
• ComplicationManager is now an optional parameter of WatchFace constructor and the arguments have been reordered to allow this. (I66c76)
• We've added an optional Bundle to Complications which if set gets merged in with the intent sent to launch the provider chooser activity. (Ifd4ad)
• We've added a new wear-watchface-editor library to support on watch face and SysUi hosted editors. SysUI will launch these editors by sending an intent. The watch face activity service can use the new EditorSession class to access WatchFace details and record the result via Activity.setWatchRequestResult. (I2110d)
• LayerMode.DRAW_HIGHLIGHTED is now called LayerMode.DRAW_OUTLINED and RenderParameters.highlightComplicationId is now called RenderParameters.selectedComplicationId which draws a highlight on the specified complication in addition to an outline. (I90a40)
• WatchFaceControlClient.getOrCreateWallpaperServiceBackedInteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient's future can now resolve with a ServiceStartFailureException if the service dies while waiting for the watchface to be created. (I0f509)
• EditorSession.complicationPreviewData is now a ListenableFuture because fetching this data is an asynchronous process. (Iead9d)

Bug Fixes

• We're removing unused fields from ComplicationOverlay leaving enabled and complicationBounds. (I17b71)

Version 1.0.0-alpha05

January 13, 2021

androidx.wear:wear-*:1.0.0-alpha05 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha05 contains these commits.

New Features

Watchfaces often support a number of complication configurations with varying numbers of complications shown. To make this easier to set up we now support initially disabled complications by calling setEnabled(false) on the builder. These can be enabled later via ComplicationsUserStyleSetting.

API Changes

• ComplicationHelperActivity now accepts Collection<ComplicationType> rather than an int array making it easier to use. (I1f13d)
• ProviderInfoRetriever.retrieveProviderInfo now correctly returns ListenableFuture<ProviderInfo[]>. (If2710)
• You can now create an initially disabled complication by calling setEnabled(false) on the builder. (Idaa53)
• WatchFaceState now has an isHeadless property which is only true for headless instances. (Ifa900)
• ComplicationDrawable now optionally supports synchronous loading of drawables. This is used by the screenshot APIs. (I34d4a)

Version 1.0.0-alpha04

December 16, 2020

androidx.wear:wear-*:1.0.0-alpha04 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha04 contains these commits.

New Features

• The wear watch face library now supports setting bounds per type. E.g. you can switch to a wide bounding box for ComplicationType.LONG_TEXT whilst using a smaller bounding box for other types.

API Changes

• Complications now use ComplicationBounds which wraps a Map<ComplicationType, RectF> to support per complication type sizes. (I1ebe7)
• RenderParameters now lets you specify the highlight tint for use in screen shots. (Iff42b)
• With the exception of bounds you now have to use ComplicationsUserStyleSetting to modify complications, this is to ensure the OS is kept in sync. (I8dc5d)
• Renderer is now a sealed class. This means CanvasRenderer and GlesRenderer are now inner classes of Renderer. (Iab5d4, b/173803230)
• CanvasComplicationDrawable.drawHighlight renamed to drawOutline. ObservableWatchData now has a few missing UiThread annotations. ScreenState has now been fully removed from WatchState. (If1393)
• The minimum API level for wear-watchface is now 25. Note hardware canvas support requires API level 26 or above. (Ic9bbd)
• InteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient now has a getComplicationIdAt helper. (I05811)
• The API level for wear-watchface-client has been reduced to 25, however the screen shot APIs require API level 27. (Id31c2)

Bug Fixes

• We now expose the complication's current ComplicationData's ComplicationType in ComplicationState. (I9b390)
• InteractiveWatchFaceWcs now has a method `bringAttentionToComplication to briefly highlight the specified complication. (I6d31c)
• InteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient#setUserStyle now has an overload accepting Map which can potentially avoid an extra IPC round trip necessary to construct UserStyle. (I24eec)

Version 1.0.0-alpha03

December 2, 2020

androidx.wear:wear-*:1.0.0-alpha03 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha03 contains these commits.

New Features

The Complication class now has a compicationData property letting watch faces observe ComplicationData changes. This makes it possible to change the complication’s dimensions based on the type of the complication.

Variable frame rates are now supported by assigning to Renderer.interactiveDrawModeUpdateDelayMillis. For watch faces which run short animations every second this can lead to good power savings by going to sleep when not animating.

API Changes

• BACKGROUND_IMAGE has been renamed to PHOTO_IMAGE along with related classes. This type of complication is not exclusively used for backgrounds hence the name change. (I995c6)
• DefaultComplicationProviderPolicy properly annotated with IntDefs. (I3b431)
• The hidden TimeDependentText class is no longer exposed via ContentDescriptionLabel, instead we add an accessor to get the text at a specified time. (Ica692)
• ObservableWatchData's constructor is now internal. (I30121, b/173802666)
• Complication now has compicationData letting watch faces observe ComplicationData changes. Complication also has a new isActiveAt call which can be used to tell if anything should be rendered at the provided datetime. (Ic0e2a)
• The empty SharedMemoryImage is no longer in the public API. (I7ee17)
• WatchFace.overridePreviewReferenceTimeMillis now has an IntRange annotation and the getter and setter have consistent names. (Ia5f78)
• Complication.Builder is now created via Complication.createRoundRectComplicationBuilder or Complication.createBackgroundComplicationBuilder for clarity (I54063)
• Added WatchFace.TapListener which allows taps not consumed by complications to be observed by the WatchFace. (Ic2fe1, b/172721168)
• WatchFace now supports variable frame rates by assigning to Renderer.interactiveDrawModeUpdateDelayMillis. This can help preserve battery life by sleeping when not animating. (I707c9)
• WatchFace.Builder is no longer needed and invalidate() and interactiveUpdateRateMillis have been moved to Renderer. (I329ea)
• For better java interoperability renamed getters for boolean properties in WatchState (I6d2f1)
• Renamed TapListener to TapCallback and InvalidateCallback to InvalidateListener for consistency. (I9414e)
• Wear 2.0 watchface style options have been moved to their own class for clarity. WatchFace.Builder setters now have symmetrical WatchFace class getters. (Iefdfc)
• Added InteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient and WatchFaceControlClient.getOrCreateWallpaperServiceBackedInteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient which either gets an existing instance or creates it once the wallaper service has connected and made the engine. (Id666e)
• WatchFaceControlClient is now an interface to allow tests to mock it. (I875d9)
• HeadlessWatchFaceClient, InteractiveWatchFaceSysUiClientImpl, InteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient are now interfaces to better facilitate testing. (I7cdc3)
• Added annotations to methods in wear-watchface-complications-rendering (I0d65c)

Bug Fixes

• Remove screen shape from DeviceConfig, which was duplicating android.content.res.Configuration#isScreenRound() (Ifadf4)
• Changed WatchFaceControlClient.getOrCreateWallpaperServiceBackedInteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient to accept a Map<String, String> instead of UserStyle because it's hard to create a UserStyle without knowing the schema which you can only get after the client has been created. (Iea02a)
• Fix InteractiveWatchFaceWcsClient to use ComplicationState instead of the wire format. (Icb8a4)
• UserStyleSettings is now a sealed class because the watch face editors only understand the built in classes. (I2d797)

Version 1.0.0-alpha02

November 11, 2020

androidx.wear:wear-*:1.0.0-alpha02 is released. Version 1.0.0-alpha02 contains these commits.

API Changes

• ComplicationDetails is now called ComplicationState and is properly wrapped and usages of wearable support @ComplicationData.ComplicationType have been migrated to androidx ComplicationType. (I4dd36)
• Add an optional highlightedComplicationId parameter to RenderParameters which allows you to request highlighting of a single complication in screenshots. (I66ce9)
• ComplicationProviderService to use new style complication api for consistency (Id5aea)
• getPreviewReferenceTimeMillis now gets reference times from DeviceConfig. (I779fe)
• Simplifying Renderer API surface, can use SurfaceHolder.Callback to observe changes instead. (I210db)
• CanvasComplicationRenderer doesn't extend from Renderer, renaming it for clarity. (Ibe880)

Bug Fixes

• First version of androidx.wear:wear-watchface-client (I1e35e)
• Changed the name of GlesTextureComplication#renderer for clarity (Ib78f7)
• Rename StyleCategory to StyleSetting for clarity (I488c7)
• Adding UserStyleSchema for a cleaner API (If36f8)

Version 1.0.0-alpha01

October 28, 2020

androidx.wear:wear-complications-*:1.0.0-alpha01 and androidx.wear:wear-watchface-*:1.0.0-alpha01 are released. Version 1.0.0-alpha01 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Removed some things we didn't intend to expose in public api. (I41669)
• Create androidx.wear:wear-complications-provider library. (I77f1f)
• ComplicationsUserStyleCategory the new recommended category for configuring complications (I96909)
• Add wear-complication-data API. (I7c268)
• Functions with boolean return values to be prefixed with “is” rather than “get” (If36ff)
• API advice is to avoid using protected so this class has been refactored to take parameters in via the constructor. (I61644)
• Rename setBackgroundComplication for clarity. (I96fe3)
• Use Kotlin properties for ComplicationDrawable isHighlighted & data (I4dcc8)
• Instead of ComplicationRenderer.InvalidateCallback we add Complication#invalidate() (I4f4c6)
• These APIs are being deprecated in WearableSupport and are removed here. (Ib425c)
• Renamed some WatchFace builder methods to emphasize their wear 2.0 legacy nature. (Idb775)
• First beta API candidate for wear/wear-watchface (Id3981)
• First tracked version of the API. (Ie9fe6)
• Properly hiding ComplicationDrawable.BorderStyle IntDef and move to ComplicationStyle for consistency. (I27f7a)
• Adding missing annotations for ComplicationStyle methods (I838fd)
• This library has no public API surface (I88e2b)
• All style category Option classes are now properly final. (Ib8323)
• First tracked version of the API. (I27c85)

Bug Fixes

• Changed ComplicationProviderService to have an explicit getComplicationPreviewData method. (I4905f)
• API lint check for MissingGetterMatchingBuilder is enabled for androidx (I4bbea, b/138602561)
• Rename wear-complications-rendering. (Ifea02)
• Style category display names are now CharSequences (I28990)
• Replacing Override with Overlay to match current themes & styles naming conventions. (I4fde9)
• Renamed UserStyle#getOptions for clarity. (I695b6)

Version 1.2.0

Version 1.2.0-alpha06

January 27, 2021

androidx.wear:wear:1.2.0-alpha06 is released. Version 1.2.0-alpha06 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Migrate the Ongoing Activities library to a new sub-library: wear-ongoing. Classes now live in the androidx.wear.ongoing package (previously was androidx.wear.ongoingactivities) (I7c029)
• Migrate WearableCalendarContract class from Wearable Support Library to AndroidX. This API provides a subset of the data available through CalendarContract, but is automatically synced to wearable devices. (I6f2d7)

Bug Fixes

• Disable the back button dismiss feature by default in Dismissible FrameLayout since swipe-to-dismiss remains as the main way to navigate back a full screen on Wearable devices (Ic24e3)
• Fixed some issues handling children visibility on WearArcLayout (Icf912)

Version 1.2.0-alpha05

January 13, 2021

androidx.wear:wear:1.2.0-alpha05 is released. Version 1.2.0-alpha05 contains these commits.

Bug Fixes

• Update the javadoc of AmbientModeSupport class to provide sample snippets to better demonstrate the general use of this class.

Version 1.2.0-alpha04

December 16, 2020

androidx.wear:wear:1.2.0-alpha04 is released. Version 1.2.0-alpha04 contains these commits.

API Changes

• Added support for indicating that an Activity can be “auto-resumed” when the device leaves ambient mode in the AmbientModeSupport class. This functionality was previously available in the deprecated WearableActivity class from WearableSupportLibrary. (I336ab)
• OngoingActivity
  • Category can now be set when creating an OngoingActivity, e.g. OngoingActivitiy.Builder.getCategory(String)
  • OngoingActivityData now has a timestamp of when the OngoingActivity was built - OngoingActivityData.getTimestamp()
  • (I91cb4)
• Added support for setting margins on children of WearArcLayout by changing the layout params to extend MarginLayoutParams, i.e. WearArcLayout.LayoutParams extends android.view.ViewGroup.MarginLayoutParams. (I2cd88)
• Change WearCurvedTextView's anchor type default to WearArcLayout.ANCHOR_CENTER (was WearArcLayout.ANCHOR_START). This simplifies the contract between the arc layout and the curved text as the curved text by default draws itself x-centered at the top, and the parent arc layout can rotate it to where it needs to be. (I105ff)

Version 1.2.0-alpha03

December 2, 2020

androidx.wear:wear:1.2.0-alpha03 is released. Version 1.2.0-alpha03 contains these commits.

New Features

A new layout container DismissibleFrameLayout, which handles back-button-dismiss and/or swipe-to-dismiss, intended for use within an activity. At least one listener must be added to act on a dismissal action. A listener will typically remove a containing view or a fragment from the current activity. setSwipeDismissible(boolean) & setBackButtonDismissible(boolean) are provided for direct control over the features. This new layout is meant to replace the existing SwipeDismissFrameLayout.

Curved widgets now handle touch events. Normal widgets inside an WearArcLayout will receive all touch events, mapped to their coordinate space. WearCurvedTextView (inside an WearArcLayout or not) can set onClick and onLongClick handlers.

Ongoing activities classes are now VersionedParcelables instead of using custom serialization/deserialization. The static icon and touch intent are now required.

API Changes

• The attribute "sweepDegrees" for WearCurvedTextView is separated into minSweepDegrees and maxSweepDegrees to give a more flexible layout of this widget.

Version 1.2.0-alpha02

November 11, 2020

androidx.wear:wear:1.2.0-alpha02 is released. Version 1.2.0-alpha02 contains these commits.

This release adds a new “Ongoing Activities API” for the first time. This API can be used by developers to signal that a long running activity, such as a fitness exercise or a media playback session is on-going. It allows developers to provide periodic status updates such as “distance and time run” or “current track playing” for display on the watch face or in the app launcher. This functionality is targeted at future devices with the on-going activity functionality enabled.

API Changes

• New API for Ongoing Activities, this is a no-op on "unsupported devices.". (I69a31)

Version 1.2.0-alpha01

October 28, 2020

androidx.wear:wear:1.2.0-alpha01 is released. Version 1.2.0-alpha01 contains these commits.

New Features

• Added WearCurvedTextView component for easily writing curved text following the curvature of the largest circle that can be inscribed in the view. An usage example:

<androidx.wear.widget.WearCurvedTextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="example curved text"
        app:anchorAngleDegrees="180"
        app:anchorPosition="center"
        app:clockwise="false"
        style="@android:style/TextAppearance.Large"
/>

• Added WearArcLayout container for laying out its child elements one by one on an arc in either the clockwise or counterclockwise direction. Its children can be both standard android widget or "curved" widgets which implement its ArcLayoutWidget interface. An usage example:

<androidx.wear.widget.WearArcLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:anchorPosition="center">
      <ImageView
              android:layout_width="20dp"
              android:layout_height="20dp"
              android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"
      />
      <androidx.wear.widget.WearCurvedTextView
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              android:text="Curved Text"
              style="@android:style/TextAppearance.Small"
              android:padding="2dp"
       />
  </androidx.wear.widget.WearArcLayout>
