Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NOTE: While this edition offers good value, there is a newer Second Edition of this book. If you just bought an Android Wear smartwatch, you need this book... because there is no comprehensive manual in the box that tells you how to get up-and-running (and more) with your new device. If you're thinking about buying an LG G Watch, Samsung Gear Live, Motorola Moto 360 or any other Android Wear watch, you need this book... because it will help you decide which watch is right for you. From theory (about smart watches in general and Google's Android Wear in particular) to practice (with hands-on demonstrated features, tips and tricks) our warts 'n' all coverage will help you to decide which watch to buy plus how to use it when you've bought it. Like all our books at smartwatchbooks.info, it's an "unofficial" book because we haven't colluded with the manufacturers during the writing of the book. So we can tell it like it really is. And best of all, this first edition is a relatively cheap and definitely cheerful guide to Android Wear.

This book was released on 2015-01-17 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the world of wearable technologies, and (in particular) to Google's Android Wear range of smart watches. Whether the LG G Watch, Samsung Gear Live, Motorola 360, ASUS ZenWatch, Sony SmartWatch 3, or any future model, what these watches all have in common is the Android Wear operating system. It means that this one-size-fits-all book can act as... * A buyers' guide that will guide your decision about which watch to wear, or whether to wear and Android Wear watch at all. * A user guide that tells you - more or less - how all Android Wear watches work from the user's perspective. In this short and sweet book our aim is to tell you what you need to know - and no more - in order to choose and use an Android Wear smartwatch. Yes, you'll find some of the same information scattered around the World Wide Web, but here we've brought it all together into one very readable reference guide. It's an "unofficial" book not because we divulge any amazing revelations about Android Wear, but because we wrote it completely independently without influence from the technology vendors. So where necessary, we can say what we really think, warts 'n' all. In the spirit of Google's Android Wear voice interface, it is sufficient now for us to say simply: "Ok Google, let's see what we can do with an Android Wear smartwatch..."
