As Google describes in their Android Wear development docs, you can use an intent filter to access the voice command features for your app. For example, "Take a note" will launch one of your app's activities in order to take a note, as described here.
I have copied the example code exactly and placed it in my activity tag in my AndroidManifest.xml
file. After I have uploaded my .apk to my Wear device, I should be able to select the default application to use the "Take a note" voice command in Google's Android Wear app. When I go to pick a default app for "Take a note", there are numerous apps available, but not mine. I figure there is something that Google didn't show me that I need to implement in my <intent-filter>
, but I don't know what. If anyone has any ideas, that would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Edit: Here is my full Manifest
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.type.watch" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault" >
<activity
android:name=".MainWearActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".NoteAddWearActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<category android:name="com.google.android.voicesearch.SELF_NOTE" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".NotesWearActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name">
</activity>
</application>
I have solved it:
<intent-filter>
<action android: name="android.intent.action.SEND />
<category android:name="android.intent.category. DEFAULT />
<category android:name="com.google.android.voicesearch.SELF_NOTE" />
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
</intent-filter>
I found the answer here.
