Android Wear

CalenGoo supports Android Wear to display reminders and add events and tasks by voice. When a reminder notification is displayed in the status bar of your phone, it will also be displayed on your Android Wear. On the Android Wear you have the same snooze options that you have configured for your reminders on your phones so you can view and snooze the reminders directly with your watch.

Additionally two Android Wear commands are installed that can be started with "Start new event" and "Start new task". Using these commands you can create a new event or a new task by voice. E.g. you can say "Meeting with John tomorrow at 5pm" to create a new event "Meeting with John" for the next day at 5pm.

Watch face

CalenGoo also installs two new watch faces named "CalenGoo" that show an analog clock and display the upcoming events of the next nine hours as bars in the outer ring of the clock.

Installation

CalenGoo includes a small Android Wear app that is automatically installed on your Android Wear device when CalenGoo is installed. Usually you don't need to do anything, no installation or configuration is necessary.

To use an Android Wear device with your phone you need Android 4.3 or higher on your phone and the "Android Wear" app has to be installed.

After the watch has finished installing CalenGoo you should find three buttons, "New event", "New task" and "Agenda":

  • New event: Allows you to create a new event by voice, similar to the voice widget for the phone’s home screen that CalenGoo provides. E.g. you can speak "Meeting with John tomorrow at 5 pm" to create a new event with the title "Meeting with John" for the next day at 5 pm.
  • New task: Creates a new task with the text you have spoken.
  • Agenda (requires CalenGoo 1.0.170 or newer): Shows a small agenda view with your upcoming events.

Notifications

CalenGoo’s notification (e.g. alerts for event reminders) are usually automatically mirrored by the Android system onto the watch. They are displayed on top of your current watch face as you can see in the video at the top of this page. If they don’t appear then ensure that "Settings > Reminders > Show pop-up window" is turned off in CalenGoo (so that status bar notifications are used) and that CalenGoo is not listed under "Block app notifications" in the "Android Wear" app in the "Settings" of your watch (just tap the gear icon in the upper right corner).

Notes

The Amazon version of CalenGoo does not support Android Wear because Amazon’s DRM changes CalenGoo’s signature which prevents CalenGoo from communicating with its Wear app. You need the Google Play version or the directly distributed version.
