A big game: Android wear to be the user's only inbox

On Google I/O 2014 this year, Google used a set of data to tell us: "Android monthly active users up to 1 billion, the user lights up, unlock the phone 100 billion times a day."

In this way, a qualified Android user has to unlock 100 this time every day. Kiss, did you pass the exam? Three minutes information reminder, five minutes two messages push, how can an obsessive-compulsive disorder survive such torture? There is always the illusion of receiving new news, there is always a missing information illusion, countless times to light up, unlock the phone has become a compulsory course.

Google has seen these issues in the smartphone age, and will not allow such problems to continue on the smart watch, and to use new tools and battlefields to truly become a unified platform. The Verge editor has experienced the latest LG G watch and Samsung Gear Live, which validates this view.

First of all, a small detail, now many smart watches are in pursuit of user-defined variable disk, find ways to let users make their own favorite dial, increase user stickiness. Google does the opposite, the user can only select the dial in the system, developers can not develop alone. Now there are fewer dials in the phone, Samsung Gear Live has 12, G Watch has 20, Google said it will be updated in a timely manner. Isn't it very unlike Google open-source style?

To unify not fragment, the most obvious embodiment is the product positioning. If Android smartphones are open multitasking, G watch and Gear Live are more like uniform or even unique inboxes worn on the wrist, and there's only one thing they can do: information management that allows the right information to appear in front of you at the right time.

android wear automatically compatible with apps on your phone, developers don't have to develop apps for Android wear alone. The information that is received on Android Wear is actually the information that the phone receives, and the information processed on the Android Wear is equivalent to being processed on the phone. If it was a social person, wouldn't it be the information that was being harassed to death? After the user installs the Android Wear companion app on the phone, you can set up a message alert, for example, I don't want to receive a Gmail alert, just set the ignore message on the phone's app. I can also manually "burn after reading" Remove some of the information you do not want others to see.

android wear support for Google Now   Card and voice control, can be voice input, such as using voice to send information to friends, the hands from the complex mobile phone information freed up, improve access to information, management information efficiency, reduce the anxiety of excess information. In google I/O at Conference, Google officially released google now , through the intelligent learning of your search history, calendar and other information, it knows everything about me, And I know everything about the world around me, and I've integrated this information into my smart device (I just yy, as a domestic user, for the time being, can't experience this feature). However, now the watch with Android Wear does not recognize who said "Ok,google".

All of this is based on the assumption that users trust Google. Although Google can get all the basic information of the user through the smartphone, but the basic is invisible, now users want to use Android Wear management information, in fact, the default agreement to open their own information to Google, then can only pray Google don't mess with this information.
