A weather app was the base for the project and a companion app for wearables was added. Both round and square watch faces are supported.
The app was developed with Android Studio and targets the Android Lollipop 5.1 (API 22) platform.
The app uses data from the OpenWeatherMap, to get data from this service a API key is needed. A key can be acquired from [here] (http://www.openweathermap.org/appid)
Add the key to your gradle.properties, note that there are two of these in your Android Studio project!
Place the key in the one marked Global Properties. The file path to the file on Windows is %USERPROFILE%\.gradle\gradle.properties
Do not put your API key in build.gradle for security reasons!
Example: MyOpenWeatherMapApiKey="This-is-your-key-string"
