I have an existing android habit app, and I'd like to create a wear-os view for it. It'd essentially just be one more screen / view (that shows current habits and lets you check them), but for wear-os: everything including its database, the utils, should match exactly.

Going over the wear-os developer docs, its unclear how to do this. It seems like they want you to create an entirely identical stand-alone wear-os app.

Has anyone been through this process before?

    I'd recommend watching Deep dive into Wear OS app architecture. The modularization section should give you some guidance. Commented Feb 27 at 22:06

    1 - For wear os you need to create "another" app that matches your app package name (you can create another app or integrate a module, here:developer.android.com/health-and-fitness/guides/…) . 2 - You need to adapt your app for watch screens. 3 - If you want to have the same code you can copy it or turn it into a library and import on both apps. 4 - To share data you need to use the sync layer api, here, developer.android.com/training/wearables/data/sync Commented Feb 28 at 15:32
