Android RuntimePermissionsWear Sample

A sample that shows how you can handle remote data that requires permissions both on a wearable device and a mobile device.

Introduction

Steps for trying out this sample:

  • Compile and install the mobile app onto your mobile device or emulator.
  • Compile and install the wearable app onto your Wear device or emulator. (Note: wearable apps are not automatically pushed from your mobile device unless you build a production release, see here for more info).
  • Start the mobile or wear app. Each app contains two buttons: one for showing local data and another for showing remote data.
  • Click either button to view the data. Both local and remote data require dangerous permissions to be approved before displaying the data for devices running 23 or above. You will be asked to approve the access if you do not have the proper permissions.
  • The happy icon signifies you have access to the data while the sad icon signifies you do or may not have access (and may be asked to approve access).

This sample demonstrates how to access data and trigger permission approval on remote devices. It uses Services and the Wearable MessageApi to communicate between devices.

MainWearActivity

MainWearActivity

RequestPermissionOnPhoneActivity

MainWearActivity

Displays data that requires runtime permissions both locally (BODY_SENSORS) and remotely on the phone (READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE). * The class is also launched by IncomingRequestWearService when the permission for the data the phone is trying to access hasn't been granted (wear's sensors). If granted in that scenario, this Activity also sends back the results of the permission request to the phone device (and the sensor data if approved).

Ambient mode controller attached to this display. Used by the Activity to see if it is in ambient mode.

Prepares the UI for ambient mode.

Restores the UI to active (non-ambient) mode.

RequestPermissionOnPhoneActivity

Asks user if they want to open permission screen on their remote device (phone).

IncomingRequestWearService

IncomingRequestWearService

IncomingRequestWearService

Handles all incoming requests for wear data (and permissions) from phone devices.
