Google Just Made Its Smartwatch Faces Actually Useful

WIRED - Aug 20 - Google will let developers build interactivity into watch faces. The smartwatch face is a crazy-undervalued feature. It’s the first screen you see. It’s there to tell the time, sure, but it’s also a huge opportunity to define how you should interact with your device. A more functional face can provide faster access to the things you do most often and help alleviate some of the inherent slowness of a smartwatch, circumventing slow loading times and awkward first-generation interfaces.
