Android Wear App not installed

android, wear-os

Solution

- Check your permissions. The Smartphone part needs to have all the permissions the Wear component has.

- use the same package id for both apps (wear and mobile)

Problem

we release our first Wearable Application today but sadly this one isn't get installed automatically as it should. We double checked the APK and the wearable apk is present but never hits the watch. Manually packaging the APK as suggested here http://android-developers.blogspot.de/2014/07/update-on-android-wear-paid-apps.html doesn't helped either. (We know this should only affect paid apps but just to be sure) Is anybody else facing this issue? The app works if we install the APKs over adb.
