This is a curious tool that can offer a good handful of possibilities for users of the new Samsung Gear Live andLG G Watch Its main mission is to be able to take any widget or shortcut that is available on the mobile directly to the clock screen, with all that this entails. Something that offers display information prominently on the wrist, or conversely, buttons and tools that control some functionality of the terminal, without having to take it out of the pocket.
Just install the new version of Wearable Widget on your smartphone and pair it with your watch.With this, a card that refers to this application is activated on the wrist's screen.

This means being able to use one of its shortcuts to turn off and on the WiFi, 3G or GPS connection directly with a touch of the screen from the screen, without the need for access the smartphone In addition, it is possible to bring the classic time and hour widgets to the wrist screen , or more complex ones such as news and latest publications.All this depends on the applications installed in the terminal. Of course, there are some widgets that are too complex to control or view on the small screen of the clock, so it is necessary to test which of them can be the most useful on each occasion.

An app that is also compatible with the Sony Smartwatch and Google Glass
