That one was for the phone AW app, right? The new update that is rolling out will update the AW version on our watches and add the new interactive stuff.

So far, so cool.
Ver 1.3. When you click the See More Apps button on the phone it takes you here
I've already downloaded and tried out 3 this morning. Bits, The Weather one and mysterious forest.
Mforest, cute but not impressed. Pujie was already considered Interactive compared to this. Apparently pujie was ahead of its time.
The weather one I tried long ago so tried it again. Pretty cool. Some neat new features. Use a photo as wallpaper and you can click to change from that to black then to white.
Bits is probably the coolest of the 3. You can pick what you want displayed and every bit is Interactive.
On the watch, all the Interactive faces have a gear symbol under them. They all have Options that can be configured from the watch. That's probably the coolest part.
Google added one face...and it sounds really freaking lame.

I'm going to need a partner to test this one out. Sajo??? [emoji7]

Meh. Other then being able to change the background of your friends watch it sounds pretty lame.

What's with the "love" face? My mom told me not to take candy from strangers. [emoji1]
JK.
No update for me yet, checked again this morning. They roll out in waves, so I will get it sometime soon. The Bits face seems like the only one I will try, and Skymaster which I already use....curious to see what interaction the dev added.
As far as sharing, wouldn't we have to be within blue tooth range? Or does this share via the phones internet connection? If we can share from across the country, I'll give it a try, but you are buying dinner. [emoji2]

Interesting, just read that whole page you posted. Once I get the update, I will post here.

Didn't wear my watch yesterday because I was doing set construction all day, but it's downloading the update now.
Is that Under Armour one a fitness app or a shortcut to their website to buy their swag?
Interactive app shortcuts, ala a phones launcher, is very nice to have, if I'm understanding what you mean by the gear symbol.

Hmm... Not sure how I feel about this new "feature". On my urbane, I can still wake the screen by taking on it, but to get to the apps/etc, it's now a long press on the button.
Might help avoid accidental activation of things, but also changes the way I do things without talking to my watch.

Bird face?
