Description
This app is only a proxy which calls the default Voice Search app on your watch. Wear OS / Android Wear 2.0 compatible standalone wearable app SETUPâș Wait for the Android Wear component to get installed on the watchâș Open Button Setting on your ZenWatch 3âș Pick a button (Top or Bottom)âș Select "Button to Search" in the list of appsorâș Select "Feed" in the list of apps Only useful on Android Wear watches with customizable hardware buttonsâș ASUS ZenWatch 3 (Android Wear 1.5 and 2.0)âș LG Watch Urbane 2 (Android Wear 2.0)âș LG Watch Sport (Android Wear 2.0)and many newer watches running WearOS Cannot be assigned to main button. Does nothing on watches with one button! TROUBLESHOOTINGA few users found that the watch component of the app did not transfer immediately to the watch. Unfortunately it is outside of my control how quickly Android Wear "discovers" newly installed apps... Here are a few things you can try:âș Make sure you look for my app under the name "Button to Search" on the watchâș Waitâș Reboot the watchâș Reboot watch and phone at the same timeâș Resync All (from Android Wear app on the phone) â But please know that the complete resync process can take as long as 20 minutes, because then every app is re-transferred and re-installed on the watchConnection problems are usually caused by outdated or non-matching Android Wear and Google Play Services versions on the phone or watch:âș Update your Android Wear app from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.wearable.appâș You can try to manually update Google Play Services from APKMirror NEW: GOOGLE NOW FEED BUTTONâș A second command appears that you can also assign to one of the buttons: "Feed"v1.03: Second button: Google Now Feedv1.02: Standalone Android Wear 2.0 appv1.01: Quicker, smoother startup when pressing the button

Saves me the "ok Google" step and opens up the speak now at the push of a button. Really useful
I would like to say this save you from needing to toggle to or say okay google. You are able to directly just talk to your watch which makes it less akward when out. The one thing to note is that it took a while for this to show up on my watch but it did show up and was as simple as assigning it to one of the two button on my Zenwatch 3.
Useful idea! I'm sure a lot of people will find this useful
Works well. 2 minor things: 1 when activating voice search, the ZenWatch 3 goes through the app screen. It'd be nice if it was bypassed completely, if possible. 2 Google Now Cards cannot be assigned to a button. Again, if possible, it'd be a nice addition. Still running version one of Android Wear.
Spot on.. No more "OK Google"!
I installed this app then realised you can just hold the center button down for the exact same thing
