Google launches Android app that connects smartwatches iPhone – El Nuevo Herald

Google has an application that will connect with Android smartwatches Apple iPhone, giving a twist to the battle between the tech giants to seize the wrists of their consumers.

The move puts Google in Apple territory, in an attempt to increase the low sales of the software android wear watches. The program connects to devices with different operating systems will go on sale Monday in the Apple app store.

So far, only watches Android smartphones with Android operating system, as well as the Apple Watch is designed to be operated exclusively for the iPhone.

However, the new application of Google allow new watches Android linked to the iPhone so that people can review their wrists in search of a direction , exercise information and event notifications, emails and Facebook updates.

The devices may not yet be linked in a way that allows Android watches communicate with the rest of the apps that might be installed on the iPhone.

It is possible that hurdle is enough to deter many iPhone owners to leave behind Apple to buy an Android watch, unless eventually Google finds a way to overcome this problem, he said IDC analyst Ramon Llamas.

For now, it is possible that Android watches are attractive for owners of iPhones who refuse to spend much money on an item that is still more a novelty than an article huge functionality.

Google expects the price of Android watches compatible with iPhone fluctuate between 100 and 400 dollars. Apple, which has a long history of charging higher prices for their products, sells most of its watches 350 to $ 1,000, although there are luxury models exceeding 10,000.

Android watches will not be acquired “by the fervent fans who must have all items that have the Apple logo,” said Llamas. “We are talking about attracting other possibilities open to people about what to do with their devices.”
