     42 This sample aims to be as close to a real world example of a mobile
     43 and Wear app combination as possible. It has a more refined design
     44 and also provides a practical example of how a mobile app would
     45 interact and communicate with its wear counterpart.
     46 
     47 The app itself is modeled after a hypothetical tourist attractions
     48 app that notifies the user when they are in close proximity to
     49 notable points of interest.
     50 
     51 The Wear component loads a full wearable app that shows images,
     52 summary information and provides quick actions for nearby tourist
     53 attractions in a GridViewPager UI component.

    131 Steps for trying out this sample:
    132 * Compile and install the mobile app onto your mobile device or emulator.
    133 * Compile and install the wearable app onto your Wear device or emulator.
    134 (**Note:** wearable apps are not automatically pushed from your mobile device
    135 unless you build a production release, see [here][22] for more info).
    136 * Start the mobile app and use the overflow menu options to test either a
    137 notification enhanced for Wear, or the full wearable application (unless
    138 you're physically in Sydney in which case the geofence should trigger
    139 automatically). Note that the first time you trigger either the notification
    140 or the wearable app it may take 20-30 seconds to show up as it needs to
    141 transfer the image assets to the wearable (in practice this delay won't be
    142 noticeable to users as they will only be notified once the data has been sent).
    143 
    144 This sample aims to demonstrate a number of different Android APIs and concepts
    145 relating to [Android Wear][1] and location using [Google Play Services][2]:
    146 * Trigger a mobile notification that uses [WearableExtender][3] to customize the
    147 display on the wearable
    148 * Transmit data from the mobile app to the wearable (including binary blobs
    149 such as photos) using the [Wearable DataApi][4]
    150 * Synchronize notification dismissal across mobile and wearable apps via the
    151 [Wearable MessageApi][5]
    152 * Trigger actions on the mobile app via the wearable app (eg. start walking
    153 navigation) via the [Wearable MessageApi][5]
    154 * Locate the user via the [Google Location APIs][6] and the
    155 [FusedLocationProviderApi][7]
    156 * Set up and trigger location [geofences][8] using the
    157 [Google Location APIs][6]
    158 
    159 The sample also focuses on providing a simple, yet clean design and UI for both
    160 mobile and wearable apps with an extra level of visual polish compared to a
    161 traditional code sample.
    162 
    163 Some of the UI widgets and design patterns used in the mobile app include:
    164 * Use of Material theme including definition of primary and accent colors
    165 * [AppCompat][9] usage for Material theme backward compatibility
    166 * Metrics and keylines based on the [Material guidelines][10]
    167 * Window content and activity transitions based on the
    168 [Material guidelines][11]
    169 * Use of the [RecyclerView][12] widget
    170 * CoordinatorLayout[23] and FloatingActionButton[24] from the Design Support library[25]
    171 * Material animations such as activity and shared element transitions
    172 
    173 The wearable app uses a number of techniques and UI widgets as well:
    174 * Full screen app built off [GridViewPager][13] and [DotsPageIndicator][14]
    175 * Support for square and round screens (with and without insets) using
    176 [WatchViewStub][15] and [OnApplyWindowInsetsListener][16]
    177 * Use of a variety of other widgets from the [Wearable UI Library][17]
    178 ([DismissOverlayView][18], [ConfirmationActivity][19],
    179 [CardScrollView][20], [CircledImageView][21], [ActionPage][26])
