How to install Wear OS apps on Android Q

Android Q is the tenth version of Google's popular operating system. As with its predecessor, it is possible to pair selected smartwatches with it. Smartwatches allow you to easily access functions on your Android device. To make this possible, it is necessary to install the corresponding apps.

1. Open the Google Play Store on your Android Q device. Now enter the name of the desired app in the search bar and start the search.
2. Use the "Install" button to download the app to your device and install it.
3. Now activate your smartwatch via the "On/Off" button.
4. After that, go to the "Google Play Store" via your Watch.
5. Select the menu item "Apps on my smartphone" here.
6. Also here you will find the "Install" button for the app located on the smartphone. Tap on this to install the application on Wear OS as well.
7. Note that both devices must be paired for this. Sie können Apps auch direkt über den Store auf der Watch installieren. Diese Funktion bieten jedoch nicht alle Anwendungen an.
