I'm developing a watch face on Android.

In onCreate method when I set watch face style, I see that a bunch of methods are deprecated, but on Android official website they are not. What should I do to get rid of these deprecated methods, or leave them as they are?



    @Override
        public void onCreate(SurfaceHolder holder) {
            super.onCreate(holder);

            setWatchFaceStyle(new WatchFaceStyle.Builder(DigitalWatchFace.this)
                    .setCardPeekMode(WatchFaceStyle.PEEK_MODE_VARIABLE)
                    .setBackgroundVisibility(WatchFaceStyle.BACKGROUND_VISIBILITY_INTERRUPTIVE)
                    .setShowSystemUiTime(false)
                    .setAcceptsTapEvents(true)
                    .build());
            // ...
        }

Those methods are deprecated because of this changes in android wear 2. The notifications will be shown for few seconds and then the watch face will be visible again. For this reason those methods don't have sense anymore.

  • In this moment the official documentation doesn't explain how to replace this deprecated methods. Wear 2 should be released in February, I suppose that the documentation will be updated in few weeks. – cark Jan 16 '17 at 08:50
