automagic für/for smartwatches ?

Post by mgk » 03 Dec 2016 09:40

Ich habe eine No.1 D5 Smartwatch (full Android 4.4 mit Simcard (2g/3g)).
Funktioniert Automagic auch auf solchen Systemen ?
Hintergrund : da diese Systeme nur sehr begrenzte Batteriekapazitäten haben ( 450 mAh ) möchte ich Funktionen nutzen, die automatisch ablaufen und den Batterieverbrauch reduzieren.
Im ersten Schritt würde das heissen : Abschalten des Wlans, wenn ich das Haus verlasse und Einschalten, wenn ich wieder zurück bin.
Ist das sinnvoll mit Automagic zu lösen ?

in English :

Does Automagic also work on such systems?
Background: since these systems have very limited battery capacities (450 mAh), I would like to use features that run automatically and reduce battery consumption.
In the first step this would mean: shutting down the wlan when I leave the house and turn it on when I'm back.
Is this useful with Automagic to solve?

Hi,

Automagic contains some features to interact with Android Wear devices but not with Smartwatches that contain a full regular Android.
If the watch supports the Android Play store, you could try to download and install Automagic on the device, however using the flow editor will probably not be much fun on such a small display.

Regards,
Martin

Hi Martin, thanks for your answer.
Yes, my D5 supports google play store. I can imagine that creating flows on this small display would be very difficult, but there is a solution to have an emulation on a PC with mouse and bigger display ( for many apps this is the only possibility to install or configure the app, because you cannot touch the edges of the display ( it is round, there are no edges )). And I hope it is possible to install other flows which are ready to run ( or not ? ). My first question was in the direction of : is it possible to start, stop , ..., means normal handling with such a small display ?
But I think there is no experience here with smartwatches / or small displays so I have to test it by myself.
Thanks again
