WATCHOS 2 Extension phone => watch
RESOURCES ▸ Interface.storyboard ▸ Asset catalogs
EXTENSION DELEGATE class ExtensionDelegate: NSObject, WKExtensionDelegate { func applicationDidFinishLaunching() {
} func applicationDidBecomeActive() { } func applicationWillResignActive() { } }
INTERFACE CONTROLLER class InterfaceController: WKInterfaceController { override func awakeWithContext(context: AnyObject?)
{ super.awakeWithContext(context) } override func willActivate() { super.willActivate() } override func didDeactivate() { super.didDeactivate() } }
WKINTERFACECONTROLLER ▸ Navigation ▸ Presentation ▸ Handoff ▸ Handle notification
actions ▸ Communicate with parent app
DESIGN
If you measure interactions with your iOS app in minutes,
you can expect interactions with your Watch app to be measured in seconds.
PRINCIPLES ▸ Lightweight interactions ▸ Holistic design ▸ Personal communication
LAYOUT ▸ based on horizontal or vertical groups ▸ very
similar to UIStackView ▸ two device sizes (38mm and 42mm) ▸ edge-to-edge, bezel provides margins

WATCHPRESENTER ▸ Remote controls Deckset instead ▸ Direct connection to
the Mac ▸ Shows a preview of the slides ▸ Measures heartrate to display the "most exciting" slide ▸ Taps you if you're running out of time
MULTIPEER CONNECTIVITY!

HEALTHKIT.FRAMEWORK ▸ not usable in the Watch simulator
TAPTIC ENGINE typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, WKHapticType) { WKHapticTypeNotification, WKHapticTypeDirectionUp, WKHapticTypeDirectionDown, WKHapticTypeSuccess,
WKHapticTypeFailure, WKHapticTypeRetry, WKHapticTypeStart, WKHapticTypeStop, WKHapticTypeClick } WK_AVAILABLE_WATCHOS_ONLY(2.0); WKInterfaceDevice.currentDevice().playHaptic(.Start)

TIPS
printf DEBUGGING IS GREAT!
MMWORMHOLE ▸ watchOS 1.0: CFNotificationCenter ▸ watchOS 2.0: WatchConnectivity.framework
FORCE QUIT APPS ▸ Long press until "reboot" menu ▸
Long press again
IF IN DOUBT, REBOOT THE WATCH :)
WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED? ▸ Code isn't very different from
iOS apps ▸ But design very much is ▸ Rethink your app for the watch, don't port it ▸ If you can't - maybe you don't need a watch app
Don’t be afraid to not ship. @orta
THANK YOU!
