Google Make Android Wear Compatible with iPhone

The Verge confirms that Google prepares the imminent release of Android Wear compatibility with iOS. Although all signs seemed to point unmistakably to this, The Verge have known exclusively actually working on making Google Android Wear Compatible with iPhone, and it seems they are not far from achieving it. As has revealed a close source development team at the moment are putting the finishing touches to the technical details, so compatibility should not take long to arrive. Now the big question is: what will allow Apple?

In the present state of development, Android Wear is able to synchronize with the iPhone through an application that the team has developed specifically for the Apple phone, as if the app “Apple Watch” in question. As a result, it is possible to perform some basic functions-such as receiving notifications and as you can see in the following photo- and access services such as Google Now, voice searches, receive flyers depending on our situation, among others.

Of course, it is expected that once compatibility is full, iPhone users are able to perform exactly the same functions as those on Android, as answering messages from Gmail or similar smartwatch own. But as we said in the beginning, there are still many unknowns about this support, especially if Apple will approve.

Certainly, the Cupertino do not have much incentive to do so now that Apple Watch is about to hit the market, for allowing entry of Android Wear your ecosystem would be shooting yourself in the foot. For now, both the one and another company have refused to make any statement about it, although it would be strange to think that the Google team has begun work compatibility without knowing for certain that Apple will give the green light once completed.

Apple would have no incentive to accept right now compatible with iOS Android Wear

Beyond the expected official support developed by Google, some developers have begun work on systems to achieve the “unofficial” way. For example, Mohammad Abu-Garbeyyeh has already achieved in these moments that Moto 360 receives and answer calls from iPhone without Jailbreak.

As we read in The Verge, if this compatibility is confirmed, the announcement could take place in the next Google I / O to be held in May. Since then, I greatly surprised to see an app on the home screen of my iPhone with the name “Android”, but who knows. What do you think? Do you think Apple will accept?
