By using device sensors and other contextual cues, your app can reveal information and functionality precisely when the user needs it, at a glance.</p> <p>For example, if you’re building a social app for restaurants, you can recommend popular menu items when your app recognizes that the user is at a restaurant. More examples below provide basic ideas about what you can do with a notification and action confirmation in your Android Wear app.</p> <div class="slide-wrapper"> <div class="slide"> <h2>Pinterest</h2> <p>Displays a notification when one of your geo-tagged pins is within walking distance.</p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.005.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.005.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.005_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Trulia</h2> <p>Displays property details and contact options when you are near a new home.</p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.006.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.006.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.006_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Ski Conditions</h2> <p>Displays lift status and slope conditions when you arrive at a ski resort.</p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.008.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.008.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.008_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Thermostat</h2> <p>Controls automatically appear when you are at home. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.007.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.007.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.007_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Airport</h2> <p>Displays air miles while you are waiting at the gate. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.009.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.009.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.009_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Hotel</h2> <p>Displays late check out option on the morning of your departure. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.010.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.010.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.010_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Conference</h2> <p>Shows which of your friends are also attending the conference. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.011.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.011.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.011_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Restaurant</h2> <p>Provides suggestions for the healthiest items on the menu when in a restaurant. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.012.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.012.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.012_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Oil Change</h2> <p>Offers to set a reminder to change the oil again in six months while waiting at the garage. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.013.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.013.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.013_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Car Sharing</h2> <p>Unlocks the car as you approach it. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.016.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.016.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.016_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Zoo</h2> <p>Notifies visitors when the penguins are going to be fed. </p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.014.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.014.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.014_2x.png 2x" /> </div> <div class="slide"> <h2>Location-based Query</h2> <p>Ask questions like, "Are there any picnic tables free at the park?" and get answers in real-time from people in the area.</p> <img src="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.015.png" alt="" srcset="{@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.015.png 1x, {@docRoot}design/media/wear/ContextualExample.015_2x.png 2x" /> </div> </div> <p style="clear:both;height:0"> </p>
