Google rolls out Android Wear for iOS

Android Wear for iOS alongside a future Android Wear watch by Huawei

Android Wear watches will now work with iPhones, announced Google on Monday as it revealed the rollout of the Android Wear app for iOS.

Android Wear owners will be able to pair their watch with their iPhone (5, 5c, 5s, 6 or 6 Plus running iOS 8.2+) in order to access phone calls, messages and app notifications, track fitness goals or get timely tips via the wrist-worn device.

Currently, the iOS compatibility is only available with the LG Watch Urbane, although Google says all future Android Wear devices, including ones from Huawei, Asus and Motorola, will also support iOS.
