What is the recommended way to create screenshots of a SmartWatch 2 extension?
Unfortunately, notification extensions on the emulator look nothing like they look on a real device. Also my control extension that uses a layout (instead of sending an image) looks slightly different on the device emulator.
Bonus question (to Sony): Are there official device frames we are free to use?
STEPS TO TAKE A SCREENSHOT ON SMARTWATCH: For these watches, simultaneously push the Home and Back buttons. The screenshot will briefly appear on the screen and the screen will briefly flash. Your linked phone will display a notification, which you may select to open the screenshot in your preferred gallery app.
To capture a screenshot of the Galaxy watch, just swipe the screen to the right while pressing the Home key button. You can view the captured images in the Galaxy Watch “Gallery” app.
You can capture a screenshot by simultaneously pressing the Home key and swiping from the left side of the screen to the right side. Certain apps and features do not allow screenshots. On your watch's Home screen, press the Home key, swipe to and tap Gallery, and then tap the desired screenshot.
Navigate to the screen on your smartwatch whose screenshot you want to capture. Open the Wear OS app on your phone. Tap the three-dot menu button in the upper-right corner of the app. Select the Take screenshot of watch option.
Currently, the options you have are either using the emulator (as you have done) or taking photos of the physical hardware device in action.
Regarding device frames question, there is no such material available.
