Android Wear: Information that moves with you

Useful information when you need it most. Android Wear shows you info and suggestions you need, right when you need them. The wide variety of Android applications means you’ll receive the latest posts and updates from your favorite social apps, chats from your preferred messaging apps, notifications from shopping, news and photography apps, and more.

Straight answers to spoken questions. Just say “Ok Google” to ask questions, like how many calories are in an avocado, what time your flight leaves, and the score of the game. Or say “Ok Google” to get stuff done, like calling a taxi, sending a text, making a restaurant reservation or setting an alarm.

The ability to better monitor your health and fitness. Hit your exercise goals with reminders and fitness summaries from Android Wear. Your favorite fitness apps can give you real-time speed, distance and time information on your wrist for your run, cycle or walk.

Your key to a multiscreen world. Android Wear lets you access and control other devices from your wrist. Just say “Ok Google” to fire up a music playlist on your phone, or cast your favorite movie to your TV. There’s a lot of possibilities here so we’re eager to see what developers build.

Hilfe! Was ist das für ein Schwachsinn?
Wie kann man nur so einen Dreck anbieten alles hässlich programmieren und alles viel umständlicher machen wie es vorher eh schon war? Warum kann oder konnte oder wollte man nicht auf dem sehr guten icecream aufbauen? Das war mit Abstand das beste android! Alles was danach kam ist scheiße! Warum wird alles kaputtprogrammiert? Selbst alle apps werden immer schlechter! Alle Updates sollte man tunlichst vermeiden!
Ich verlange von euch die alte Version von android zurück! SOFORT!!!
Überdenkt dringend ob ihr die Scheiße weiterhin so handhaben wollt dann kann ich nur jedem von android abraten weil es keine sinnvollen und durchdachten Funktionen hat!
