A few days ago we showed how the developer Mohammed Abu-Gabreyyeh had found a way to receive and answer calls from your iPhone from the Moto 360, one of the most attractive Android Wear smartwatch the moment. Although this developer works in an “unofficial” support, it seems that delving into the system code has found some evidence that would point to an “official” support.
This is the 4.4W version of Android Wear, which as we brought you all developments in this article, and as pointed to the Abu-Gabreyyeh itself has some lines of code related to iOS. Something that definitely confirm that Google is working on the desired compatibility could be announced in the coming months, possibly at Google I / O to take place in May event.
Note that the version 4.4W Google operating system was released last October, so this would confirm that they have been working on compatibility with the iPhone for at least 5 months. The code of the latest version 5.0 has not yet been proven, although it is expected that here also clues that future support with iOS are.
Google may announce Android Wear compatible with the iPhone in the next Google I / O
Although Android Wear operating system still has much room for improvement, the catalog of devices is increasing and among them you can find deals as attractive as the new LG Watch Urbane or Huawei Watch. Moreover, as we have seen during the day, it seems that Google also wants to make the leap to market luxury watches TAG Heuer’s hand.
As we read in Cult of Android, the question that remains clear is whether Apple will allow this compatibility with your devices, for being aware that this could mean losing many potential customers of Apple Watch, maybe not out maneuver them so profitable. What do you think? Will we have official support iOS?
