Request - Tasker Interface

Hi All,
Would be great if someone could develop a means of launching Tasker tasks from the Gear S2.
Ideally (my opinion) this would create a number of gear apps on the watch that could be assigned to launch chosen tasks (apps: task 1, task 2, task 3...).
This would allow easy launching of tasks (task apps) assigned to the gear's app shortcut widget.
To illustrate I've attached 2 images. The first shows the Gear S2's app shortcut widget.
The second shows how the shortcuts could be correlated to launch tasks if the tasks were assigned as apps (image from WearTasker a Tasker launcher for Android Wear - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cuberob.weartasker&hl=en).
Will value your thoughts.. Is this feasible? Does a Tasker launcher face the same difficulties as faced when porting Tasker to the older Tizen smartwatches or is there an easier way to only launch tasks on a connected phone?
Cheers

yeah
push..any ideas?

Yeah. A dirty method (requires some setup on the Tasker side) but this might be easier to develop: Autoremote is a tasker plugin that lets you react to commands sent via various communication methods including URL calls.
http://joaoapps.com/autoremote/direct/
It might be possible to create a number of S2 apps that each call a specific Autoremote URL (in the background without displaying anything on the watch, or quickly closing the app once the url has been called - for a cleaner UI/no UI other than launching the tasks themselves). These URLs would be set up to trigger Tasker tasks, so opening an app would trigger a Task.
Additionally there would have to be a method of assigning a URL to each S2 app.
This is beyond my ability, but maybe someone would be up to it?
WearTasker is a Tasker app for Android Wear that also produces 3 apps in the app drawer that allow you to launch Tasks directly from there. Maybe we should try to reach out and see if they can do the same for the S2.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cuberob.weartasker

No Tasker app for the Tizen Gear 1 & 2 & S since few years, so for the S2......

I would really be interested in this also. Would be great to be able to control my home automation via my Gear S2!

No, he said the app will be paid...

Well, it will be paid, but I do care about non-Samsung community. One walkaround I can think of is release the gear app free so everyone can download it, but I will charge the android app. I don't know if anyone has done this before :-/
Have you guys used any apps like that? Can the android app and the gear works together?
Another issue that may come up is that many users may think this is a scam because the app is actually not "free" and rate it bad. I really don't want to mess up this release.

I don't know what you plan on charging but I know writing apps takes time so I will gladly pay instead investing my own time if not necessary.
Hopefully support and updates will be good

I'm actually looking for a simple watch face. Simple as in no fancy design. Digital clock, watch power, weather, date, next appointment. Maybe phone power as well. Similar to the Apple Watch with the selected complications/widgets.

It can be done. I've only seen one developer do it though. One of his apps is called Calendar Analog Watch by Alex Rokhlov. Think he's out of Russia. He puts a free watchface with limited functionality on the Gear apps store. The app requires an Android companion app off the Plays store to work. To unlock all the premium features you do it through a purchase on the Android companion app. It's basically the same system anyone uses to make money off of app development for Pebble smartwatches.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=shu.gear.calwatchanalog&hl=en
I think what you want to do from a marketing perspective is do a free version that is limited. Maybe can only fire off one task through tasker. And then for a couple bucks you can unlock the full featured version of the app that will let you have X amount of tasks available. Maybe check out what other app makers did on Pebble and with Tasker, like this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kodek.pebbletasker&hl=en

Philips Hue with Gear S2

There's an app available in the Gear store called "Philips Hue Remote" for $5 U.S. (so you probably need a Samsung phone to access it). Have not tried it; the developer listed is Philipe Wechsler.

Is there any posibility to access the full store with my Oneplus 2?

Hi there,
I am the developer of the one and only app currently available in the store and you do not need a Samsung phone as it is an standalone app! Right now the app has everything you'd expect from it, but there will be some significant updates over the coming weeks and months. If you miss something or if you have ideas for an improvement please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. Thx!

I installed the Gear apps not from the playstore because they were incompatible. I only installed the apk's.
In my Gear-Store i can only see free apps.

Hi Philippe. As the developer of a great looking app I suggest you petition Samsung to provide non-Samsung phones with access to paid gear apps.
Potential revenue for you and other devs lost because they've placed these restrictions.

Right now you cannot create groups or scenes from the app, but if you create them with the philips hue app on the smartphone, you'll able to see them on your gear as well. In a future version (not too far away!) you'll able to create groups and scenes from the gear as well. Removing/hiding apps might get supported as well later, but first there will be an big update where the homesceen can be customized directly, i.e you will be able to select and sort lights/groups/scenes and other functions you see on the homescreen.

Hi
installation failed. Says connection to Gear is needed. But the gear (s2 classic) ist connected as
any other app is working. Even disconnect and reconnect doesn't work. Any idea ?

Gear needs to be restarted. After having found out that the memory couldn't be calculated I restarted the watch.

Thanks, You're right, I hope they fix it soon. The app ecosystem is presently so fragmented and unsupported that it undermines the worth of an otherwise amazing device.
It's an often reported issue on XDA. Here's a recent thread describing the issue but the problem is also mentioned elsewhere:

Hi Philippe, I just downloaded this app. Works well and looks outstanding! I thought I was going to have to wait for Samsung to release their SmartThings app before I'd be able to control my lights with my S2; So glad that's not the case.
For reference, I have 14 hue bulbs and several groups, including light strips, blooms, and a pile of A19s. You should post this app on https://www.reddit.com/r/Hue/, I'm sure others would be interested as well.

Paid apps availability
Hi guys,
I conntacted Samsung about the issue with the paid apps and non Samsung smartphones. The answer is as expected a bit odd:
"Regarding your inquiry, we would regrettably inform you that only free application could be downloaded on a non-Samsung device, and paid applications will be available in the future.​" ..and some usual blabla.
However I just submited the first update for my app and in the section where the applicable devices can be selected to new Items have appeared:
- "Non Samsung Phone (Android)"
- "Non Samsung Phone (iOS)"
So I have no idea when exactly paid gear apps will be available to all users, but I guess it cannot be too long. In fact I hope that this will even be the case when the update gets available, we'll see

That was my first thought too, but then I'd had to purchase a SmartThings Hub which is not even available in my country so I decided to do it by mself I sure will post it there as soon as I've setup an appropriate page.
Nice setup! Please tell me if you need some additional features as I can imagine you'll need some extra functionality to handle so many lights as you have.

Hi,
I'm waiting for my Gear S2 classic to arrive and I'm wondering if this app or if there is another app for LiFX smart bulbs? I could use TaskS2 app but like the idea of using the bezel to control brightness.

My app does currently not support LiFX and as far as I know there is no other app for this. I've just looked at the LiFX api and I could actually add support for LiFX (or maybe another app). For now I do have other plans, but when the demand for LiFX gets big enough I'll consider adding support for them as well...

Fair enough I doubt the demand would get high enough it's not as popular as philips hue sadly. How difficult would it be for me to try and code it as I doubt anyone would produce an app for lifx sadly.

My first IWC-like military watchface with adaptive luminophore

Hello there,
I'd like to present my first military watchface (native app) with a realistic luminophore light and a ticking sound.
Initially I created it for myself, because I didn't find anything that would satifsy me in the Galaxy Apps store. So now I'd like to share it with people.
I'm a big fan of devices with a luminophore, so I wanted to recreate this thing for my Gear S3 because this device (as so the rest Gear devices) has an integrated ambient light sensor, so adjusting the watchface image based on the light sensor was definitely an option.
I also decided to add a watch ticking sound (you can disable it on the Settings screen) to make it feel like a real watch.
Right now you can launch three apps from the watchface: built-in calendar, timer (Samsung Timer App, make sure it's installed), and a battery percentage screen.
This is a first version of the watchface. Please check it and share your opinion, I would appreciate that, because my goal is to collect some feedback.
The app will work on Gear S2 (lo-color AOD mode supported), Gear S3, Galaxy Watch, and on everything with 360x360px resolution.
The watchface is a paid app, but I'd like to share free coupons for people who will post here until the end of the week.
Samsung has a really weird coupons system, so I have to send coupons individually (if I understand that corrrectly).
So everyone who wants a free install please reach me out here or using a PM and share your country (yes, for some reason coupons work only for specific countries, "thanks" to Samsung) and I will PM you back with a coupon code.
Also, please rate the application if possible.
Thanks!

Hey Shamsheer! Thanks for your reply!
XDA has a limitation for new users, so I can't post the external links for the app.
The model name for this watch face is MILSIM A-1.
I created this watch face based on IWC and Fortis designs (and some soviet military watches like ACHS-1).
Try to google IWC Top Gun, Fortis B-42 Marinemaster and ACHS-1 (soviet aircraft watch)
My watchface is not a full copy, but an exclusive design based on top of these three watches.
I'm not sure about Watchmaker, but you probably won't be able to create this transition effect in GWD and Watchmaker because they don't provide such capabilities. That was the reason why I made it as a Tizen Native app.
Please rate the app if you like it! I'd like to collect as much feedback as possible to understand what I can improve
Thanks!

I bought this clockface yesterday and today you give away coupons for free

This is really awesome, I just got my Samsung Gear watch for my birthday for myself yesterday. I would love to try this out, I am in the U.S.

Love the watchface! The lumninescence reminds me of Panarai. I'd love a coupon, if you please. I'm in the UK.

Hello.
1 tip for improvement:
When I touch the screen and drag to the right side (to see the pending notifications) the battery status screen is opened. The program should be able to distinguish a touch from a drag event.
Being living with it for a week and it is great. The luminescence effect is super smooth and, believe it or not, doesn't affect battery life too much.
The ticking sound is something interesting ... to try for half an hour.... It is dependent on the media volume, so it is usually too loud. Oh, and it is on while charging.
Other than that, perfect. It will be my default watchface for a while.

Question Minimum face options

Does anyone know why the watch faces are so limited for the Galaxy watch 4? It seems odd that they didn't have more developers working on these before the release. For me, looks like only a total of 30. Am I missing something?

Wear os isn't that popular in my understanding but since this watch is using it I'm willing to bet that more devs will transition working on wear os instead of tinzen watch faces

Now seeing alot of familiar faces in Facer!

You can install Facer and Watchmaker and have a LOT more than only 30 Watchfaces. Plus the possibility to create a watchface by yourself.

I imagine as time goes by there will be a lot more. There were a lot of great faces on Tizen and some of those developers are doing Wear faces now. My favorite developer for Tizen faces (Matteo Dini) has actually done quite a few.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/dev?id=7920922820385858766
I have only been able to install these from Browser on PC for some reason. When you buy one it gives you choice of what to install it to. I have the Classic which is "Samsung SM-R890".
I suspect there are a lot more Wear faces out there as well but I really have not looked. I pretty much use MD faces exclusively.

Not all that glitters is gold! I have a Watch 4 Classic 46mm. I haven't tried watchmaker yet, but I have tried FACER and MR TIME. On Facer, it's pretty much all pay-as-you-go, or hourly demo versions, or you can sign up for a paid subscription. Even getting the ads out of the app requires you to pay. The completely free watch faces are very few and not even that nice, but what's worse is that the values returned by the pedometer, heart rate, temperature, etc are all wrong in the free apps I've tried. I ended up uninstalling the app.
MR TIME gave me sync problems between app and smartwatch (companion app and on smartwatch regularly installed) and it's also very similar, but slightly inferior to FACER, so I uninstalled it too.
I then tried to find other Watch Face on the Google store, but it's all strictly paid. I tried installing a few demo apps, but it wouldn't display the pedometer, heart rate and other sensors. I wrote to the developer asking why. He replied that I need to enable "complications". Thanks, I answered that, complications can only be enabled after purchasing the watch face, they are among the "PREMIUM ONLY" otions. In other words, the only thing left really to try for free is the time display
The Galaxy Store was and is great, both for structure and content, at the moment it was a huge loss for me to go from the Active 2 to the Watch 4 Classic as far as the store is concerned. We'll see what will happen in the future...
Greetings

I only use Watchmaker. Facer has to much ads and payments and abo for me.
For watchmaker I only payed (i think 5 EUR) one time. Sure you can also make abo etc. but I prefer to use my own made Watchfaces. So no more money to pay and right now my watch I got 72 % battery since today morning (6 o'clock) with activated AOD (shows time digital and analog).
The watchface shows time, date, steps, calendar, weather and battery and even has shortcuts to 2 apps.
I've made a few more (copys) of existing watches or watchfaces. That's enough for me.

Nice watch face. For your use, you may be better off with the Galaxy Watch Studio

Don't like the Studio. Tried it but it is full of bugs. Weather is missing, Complications doesn't show correctly at the watch etc.

I have tried watchmaker just now. For my use, I don't intend to create my own watch faces, at least for the moment, it's even worse than the other apps tried before: every time I go back, or touch something inside the app, a screen of ads appears and fills the entire display. There are just 10 free watch faces, but they're horrible.
All that's left to do is wait and see how the situation evolves. The transition to Wear OS it's a strong and bad hit for those who, like me, comes from Tizen and Galaxy Store.

There are a lot more than 10 free faces. Like hundreds to thousands. You can find them outside of the app at different sites and on reddit. I think you need to use the paid version of the app ($5 or $7 or something), but, before you complain, that's less than 2 cups at Starbucks or less than a lunch at McDonald's for something you'll potentially look at on and off for hours a day. And it's one time. (I see people complain about non-free apps too often. Sorry!)

So I should do as you say everywhere, 5€ here, 7€ there, another 5€ on another site and so on, with closed box, that is without knowing what I'm buying? No thanks.
And If they are of the same quality as the ones I tried...blurp, anyone would be disappointed.
Another thing to consider is battery consumption.
How beautiful was the Galaxy Store ... I was tempted to sell the watch 4 and go back to the previous model for the complete absence of a dedicated market, as instead has Tizen and I'm not the only one to think this ... But it's still early, we'll see how this new Series 4 evolves.

Themes / Apps / Mods GeminiMan watchfaces by XDA-Dante63

Hello Everyone,
I hope you all are fine...
~~~ What is this about...? ~~~​I started a hobby of making watchfaces using watch face studio, and I kind of find it very relaxing to be honest and so I made few watchfaces, I'd build them whenever I wanna de-stress so it's kinda a win-win situation where I make something and you guys can enjoy using by getting them from playstore...
I plan to release a watchface every week or two, they will show as pre-registration first before rolling out, because I love to give some excitement to you guys and myself when you guys pre-register lol...
I have no plans on putting ads, subscriptions, data collection or charges, it will be just a watchface you install and enjoy...
I hope none of you would be disappointed, I'm always eager to listen to your feedbacks...
But don't forget, these watchfaces were created using WatchFaceStudio, so the complications in the watchface are limited to the watch alone...

​I go by the developer name GeminiMan. How I came up with it...? Honestly, I kept thinking of a name, and I wanted it to be unique and maybe artistic or inspiring. Then I remembered my previous developer name was TheGeminiBros from college days with my friend. He was a Gemini too, and best thing, I was born on 3rd of June and he was on 4th of June. We were besties like bros, but life decided to split our paths, anyway, that's where it hit me, I can be GeminiMan, and I was thinking of logo designs and made the simplest design that I believe looks neat...

~~~ Got a Website...? ~~~​I made this website since Google demands a privacy policy to be online, so I said why not make a simple cool website with the privacy policy and add links too ...

~~~ Any Requests...? ~~~​Oh yeah and I'm open for requests but keep in mind it will take some time for me to create. As you know, I am maintaining SHM MOD constantly. Also, this is a hobby, I don't want my hobby to become stressful lol...
I don't mind remaking existing WatchFaces as long they're NOT PAID ones...
DM me the request with as many details as possible, but as a sketch, don't send the request as a text because I can't visualize what you have in mind...

Thanks Dante. I will check your watch faces out. Take care.

If I may suggest, it would be nice if the watch faces allowed custom widgets or complications so the user can select what data is shown on the watch face. Thanks.

Great to see your watch faces! Kudy

I did state the watchfaces are developed using WatchFaceStudio, if I developed it using Android studio, I could make things more flexible in such the user can remove any of the complications on the screen...
Otherwise, they're there, I believe the user can customize things and remove it or put an app shortcut but can't change it into things like weather, phone battery and so...
I didn't do that, I just kept it as static, the only changes a user can do is changing colors...

No problem. Was just asking.

No watch face is available in my country (India)

Sorry, I didn't read the full post. I just watched the video on YouTube & came here.
Great watch face btw.

I'd love to see a nice and simple star trek watchface that isn't an expensive buggy mess on wear os.
