TROUBLESHOOTING
A few users found that the watch component of the app did not transfer immediately to the watch. Unfortunately it is outside of my control how quickly Android Wear "discovers" newly installed apps...
Here are a few things you can try:
► Make sure you look for my app under the name "Button to Search" on the watch
► Wait
► Reboot the watch
► Reboot watch and phone at the same time
► Resync All (from Android Wear app on the phone) → But please know that the complete resync process can take as long as 20 minutes, because then every app is re-transferred and re-installed on the watch
Connection problems are usually caused by outdated or non-matching Android Wear and Google Play Services versions on the phone or watch:
► Update your Android Wear app from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.wearable.app
► You can try to manually update Google Play Services from APKMirror
NEW: GOOGLE NOW FEED BUTTON
► A second command appears that you can also assign to one of the buttons: "Feed"
