This is the Free version of Connects Wear.
Connects Wear is a PowerPoint presentation remote. This basically means you can remotely control the slides of your PowerPoint presentations. But most importantly: It works with your Wear OS compatible smartwatch.
Features include:
- Change slides of your PowerPoint presentation
- Start and End your PowerPoint presentation
- Turn off the screen timeout of the watch
- Test the connectivity between your watch, phone and computer
- Enable a dark mode which aims to reduce battery usage by dimming the display and applying a darker color scheme
On the watch, the settings and features can be accessed by long pressing on the "main screen" of the app. The mobile app also works in multi window mode so you can use another app to read notes from while presenting.
There is also a Pro version of this app available on the Play Store called "Connects Wear (Pro)". Additional features include:
- On your phone, change the slides of your PowerPoint presentation by using the volume buttons
- On your watch: Display the duration of your presentation
- On your watch: Enable vibration feedback on taps
- On your watch: Use swipes to change slides
- On your watch: Configure the amount of minutes after which the watch vibrates to inform you about the duration of your presentation
(Please note: If you want to use Connects Wear on your watch, you always need to have the Connects Wear app opened on your phone as well).
