I just published my app for wear devices, its the Watch Face, don't have any UI for phone app. I uploaded to the Google Play. But it says This app is incompatible with your device. To all users or Devices.
Anyone have idea?
To fix the “your device is not compatible with this version” error message, try clearing the Google Play Store cache, and then data. Next, restart the Google Play Store and try installing the app again.
To do so, open the Settings screen, tap Apps, swipe over to the All list, scroll down to the Google Play Store app, and tap it. Tap Force stop, Clear data, and then Clear cache. Re-open Google Play and it should hopefully find your new location.
Why This Error Occurs on Android. The error appears when the Play Store thinks your device isn't compatible with the app you're trying to download. This doesn't mean that there's an issue with your device. The error means the app developer hasn't chosen your device for their app (for their own reasons).
Since Android Wear application are only in sync with a handheld device, it needs to have a corresponding application in the handheld device.
Let me make it little more clear: To install anything on Android Wear, you need to have corresponding application for mobile, which will sync up its corresponding wear part and install the same on wear.
So go ahead develop a dummy kind of an application for handheld.
According to the official documentation, in order to publish a wearable app without a phone app component, you need to raise your minimum target SDK version to 2.0.
