Android Wear and Receive Calls from iPhone without Jailbreak

The evolution to achieve the “unofficial” compatibility between Android Wear and iOS advances. Android Wear is a platform that although still needs to improve dramatically in some respects, has a catalog of considerable smartwatch and options for all tastes and budgets. Unfortunately, iPhone users must be content for now with multi-platform smartwatch as Pebble or the next Apple Watch that come April, although there is news that Google could be made compatible with iOS Android Wear.

The existence of plans for Android Wear compatible with iOS is still unconfirmed, but we do know for sure is that there are developers working on “unofficial” way compatibility allowing us to use the wide range of system catalog smartwatch Google operation with our iPhone and watching the latest video, the thing certainly promises.

Last month we informed you that the developer Mohammad Abu-Garbeyyeh had managed mode sync your Moto 360 with the iPhone and, although only served to receive notifications mirroring on the clock, it was a remarkable feat. Now, the author returns with new developments and shows us how it is able to receive and answer calls on your iPhone from the Moto 360.

In addition, one of the main advantages of this system is that it requires that we have done our iPhone Jailbreak, so that the number of users who can benefit from it will be total. Obviously, it is still at an early stage of development, so we will have to keep waiting, but the developer does not rule out the possibility of sharing the project code so others can collaborate.

The system for compatibility with iOS Android Wear be as simple as installing a file .APK

The system that works Abu-Garbeyyeh is based on the simple installation of a file on our smartwatch .APK Android Wear it would use all its functions in sync with an iPhone. Currently, the iPhone is capable of recognizing Android Wear watches and even start synchronization with them, so that the restriction appears to reside in the operating system of Google.

It would certainly be better than Google offers native support for iOS Android Wear something that it is possible to see in the next Google I / O in May, but otherwise we do not doubt that the powerful community iOS developer behind you eventually get full compatibility.
