Article - Interface Navigation in Apple Watch Apps

• By Wei-Meng Lee
• Jan 29, 2015

 On the small face of an Apple Watch, your app won't have much space for displaying icons and navigation symbols. To solve that problem, the WatchKit includes navigation controls that give your Watch apps ways to be more useful to users. Wei-Meng Lee shows how to add maneuverability to your Apple Watch apps with navigation.

My previous article “Getting Started with the Apple WatchKit” showed how to get started writing your first Apple Watch application. In this article, we'll continue with our examination of the WatchKit API by examining how to implement page navigation in Watch apps.

Article - Getting Started with the Apple WatchKit

Getting Started with the Apple WatchKit

• By Wei-Meng Lee
• Jan 22, 2015

Buzz keeps growing around the Apple Watch, scheduled for release in early 2015. Will your apps be ready? Grab Apple's new WatchKit (released November 18) and speed-read Wei-Meng Lee's instructions on using these new tools to gear up your programming as the time winds down to arrival of the Watch.

As promised, Apple announced the WatchKit on November 19, 2014 with the release of the Xcode 6.2 beta and the iOS 8.2 Software Development Kit (SDK). With this release of the WatchKit, developers will be able to build third-party apps that run on an Apple Watch (when the watch is released in early 2015). This release of the WatchKit requires each Apple Watch app to be tethered to its accompanying iPhone app running on the user’s iPhone. The ability to develop fully native Apple Watch apps is not available in this release; Apple expects it to be available sometime in 2015.

This article gets you started with Apple Watch programming. Here I’ll briefly discuss the different types of applications that you can create; in subsequent articles, I’ll go into detail on each type of application.
