Wear OS
About
Wear OS is a proprietary yet free operating system developed by Google, originating from the United States, specifically designed for smartwatches and other wearable devices. It functions by pairing with mobile phones running Android version 4.4 or newer, or iOS version 9.0 and above, and is available across Android, iPhone, Android Tablet, iPad, and Android Wear platforms. The product portfolio centers on this operating system for wearables, supporting various watch-related applications and themes, as indicated by tags like 'watchface' and 'watchapp'. Key features include weather alerts and the ability for users to suggest and vote on new functionalities. Recent significant developments include a redesign with Google's Material 3 Expressive patterns and the ongoing integration of Google Gemini, which is replacing Google Assistant on major Wear OS devices, expanding Google's AI platform to wearables.
