WhatsApp starts beta testing Wear OS app

A big part of Wear OS 3 was getting more third-party developers on the platform, and WhatsApp is now testing an app for the Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch 5, and other devices.

The app starts with a simple list of recent contacts with “Settings” (for your details and Security notifications) and “Open on phone” rounding out this main page.

After opening a conversation, you can scroll to see past messages, while you can reply by recording a voice message or opening the system keyboard. In group chats, scrolling to the end lets you see “People in this conversation,” as well as another “Open on phone.”

The setup process involves entering an eight-digit code from your watch on the phone app.

WhatsApp offers a circular complication that shows how many unread messages you have. There are also two tiles for “WhatsApp contacts” to jump to a person, while “WhatsApp voice message” lets you quickly start an audio recording. This is a pretty good embrace of first-party capabilities.

You can sign up for the WhatsApp beta here. Be sure that both your Android phone and watch are running version 2.23.10.10+ – there will be sign-in issues otherwise. If the app doesn’t appear in the on-watch Play Store, install it from the listing on your phone.

2022.01.13 11:0030,806 岡本玄介 Image: Siraj Raval / YouTube愛車が金儲けしたら最高すぎる。2018年型のテスラ「モデル3」をハッキングして、仮想通貨をマイニングしている猛者がいます。サンフランシスコ在住のSiraj Ravalさんは、モデル3のコンピューターにApple M1搭載のMac Miniを、そしてモーターに5つのGPUを繋ぎ、イーサリアムとビットコインを稼がせているのです。テスラは車輪にコンピューターが乗っかったクルマだこの魔改造は平たく言えばクルマを電源にしているのと同じで、とても簡単なのだそうです。しかし保証対象外になるので、覚悟が必要となります。月額3500円~7000円程度かかる電気代は、月に4万6000円~9万2000円ほど可能な採掘で全部賄えてしまいます。それに採掘を元手に投資が上手くいけば、モデル3が何台も買えてしまいますよね。Video: Siraj Raval / YouTube採掘マシンとしては効率的ではないけれど「450万円以上するモデル3を保証対象外にしてまで稼ぐには、月9万円では割に合わない」と考えるエンジニアもいるようですが…Ravalさんは将来、テスラ車を使った自動運転ロボタクシー会社を立ち上げようという夢があり、こうしたハッキングからセルフプロモーションを行っているのだそうです。テスラの自動運転機能はまだ完全に実現していませんが、そのうちRavalさんが左うちわで高笑いをする日が来るでしょうね。Source: YouTube, CNBC via Futurism
