Widgets

There currently three widgets provided by the plugin:

  • WatchShape: determines whether the watch is square or round.
  • AmbientMode: builder that provides what mode the watch is in. The widget will rebuild whenever the watch changes mode.

Setup

If you are creating a standalone watch app, add the following to your manifest:

<application>
  <meta-data
    android:name="com.google.android.wearable.standalone"
    android:value="true"
    />
</application>

Example

class WatchScreen extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return WatchShape(
      builder: (BuildContext context, WearShape shape, Widget? child) {
        return AmbientMode(
          builder: (context, mode, child) {
            return mode == Mode.active ? ActiveWatchFace() : AmbientWatchFace();
          },
        );
      },
    );
  }
}
