Android/WearOS Smart Watch App

Why!? Just why! Why is smart watch functionality available for APPLE! of all brands 5 years ago and still not available for Android (the largest user base worldwide)??? 

Please please please add an android app. It would be amazingly efficient for arming and disarming with your hands full.

Hi @ric29 ,

Thanks for the suggestion. We have of course SUBMITTED to our dev team. I should set the expectation, however. While Android does overwhelmingly dominate in market share, the proportion of WearOS users is still fairly small. So this wouldn't be a very high priority right now.

That is, unless we hear from many more users like yourself!

I too would love this option! Should not even be a question. Other security system have this option. May be that is what everyone that want this functionality should do……SWITCH.

I can arm using Google devices/wear OS. Haven't tried disarming yet (I read it can't disarm)

@arguidas​ how are you managing to do this? A third party IoT manager? Because as far as I can find there is no android wear app for simplisafe. Only apple.

out of curiosity how many more comments are needed in order for you to give the Dev team a kick up the backside ?

Figures from 2022 : 

By mid-October 2022, the Wear OS app had more than 50 million downloads. Wear OS was estimated to account for 17.3% of the smartwatch market in Q3 2021, behind Apple's 21.8%

Heck yeah, a widget companion for turning on and off my alarm would be perfect for my Pixel Watch 2!

Lack of WearOS support is what kept me off of Simplisafe for years.  That's already over a thousand dollars of lost revenue from a single customer.  Multiply that by the many folks I know that are in the same position and went to Blink and others.  How's that for a kick in the butt?
