This new update to the Android Wear app that rolled out to users a couple of days ago, like was mentioned above, is the biggest update to the Android
Wear platform to date.
So, what about all those poor saps buying into Google's Android
Wear platform to date?
Not exact matches
Google has not exactly restricted any hardware specification for its Android
Wear though the minimum requirement of Android version is enough
to strike out all the
dated smartphones and tablets from the compatibility list of its Android
Wear platform.
Hardware manufacturers such as Sony started adding NFC support on their latest Android
Wear - based smartwatches, however, the
platform does not have any NFC connectivity support
to date and there is no word on its availability in the near future as well.
The developer options are still limited at this point, but Google says it will be launching the Android
Wear SDK some time later on this year — specific
date unknown — which will further open the doors for those who want
to jump aboard this new
platform.
