This release of the Wear OS Developer Preview first brought a darker background to the UI theme, which can effectively enhance contrast and visual effects. The second part is to improve the endurance performance through various optimizations. Google has taken some steps, including restricting the use of back-office activities. This means that the app cannot be used in the background unless the watch is connected to a charging state.
Naturally, the new version also brought a new dial, but this part will be gradually introduced, so not everyone can use the experience from the beginning. When the watch is not worn on the watch, all signals (WiFi, Bluetooth, and GSM) are turned off, effectively improving battery life. And if Bluetooth is turned off, WiFi will turn off automatically.
