Stuck on Android Wear 1.0? Your watch will soon support standalone apps
The first-edition Moto 360 is one of the devices that will never be updated to Wear 2.0
In practice, this means two things: firstly, users of older devices will now have the ability to use standalone apps, without the need to be constantly paired to a smartphone. And secondly, it makes the older platform more enticing to developers, hopefully encouraging them to open up their apps to more users.
There's also a second, less major change concerning the way Wear-compatible apps are displayed in the Play Store. Namely, the "Enhanced for Android Wear" will no longer appear next to apps which only display enhanced notifications on Wear devices but don't have a separate apps, as well as ones which do not use multi-APKs.
Of course, you shouldn't get too excited about this just yet — firstly, both policies will come into effect on January 18, 2018, which is quite a long time from now. And secondly, while standalone apps for Wear 1.0 are now a possibility, they will also have to be implemented by app developers, which often takes time (if it ever even happens, that is).
