AutoWear For Android Wear Brings The Power Of Tasker To Your Watch

Ever wish your Android Wear device did more things? If you don't mind getting your hands dirty, you can make almost anything happen with AutoWear. It's the latest Tasker plug-in from joaomgcd, maker of popular Tasker projects like AutoRemote and AutoVoice. I hope he makes an Android Auto plugin called AutoAuto.

AutoWear is basically a set of automated features that connect your watch with Tasker, which also needs to be installed on your phone. You can create actions that are triggered on the watch or by the watch. For example, shaking the watch can pull up a specific app on your phone or do almost anything else. If you haven't looked at Tasker lately, it really does do almost anything you can think of. Just watch the video above and all will be made clear. Well, clear-ish.

AutoWear will guide you through the setup process, which is a little confusing. Of course, then you have to fiddle with all the settings and features of AutoWear to make it do cool stuff. You need to invest time to get anything out of Tasker, but you can try AutoWear for one week free of charge. At that point, you can upgrade via an in-app purchase for $1.69.
