I am developing a large application for Android Wear through Android Studio (~200 MB). Trying to test the application on my LG G Watch R through "Debugging over Bluetooth" is taking a lot of time to send the large app to the Watch.

Are there any alternatives / faster methods to send the application to the Watch for testing?

Thank you.

EDIT:

I have fixed the issue thanks to ianhanniballake's advice. It turns out that my USB Driver was not correctly installed on my PC. Anyone with a similar issue should reinstall their Google USB Driver by following this Tutorial.

Thank you again.

  • The Google Play Store currently limits the APK size to 50MB for all apps - since Wear apps are packaged into the main APK, you'll also be limited by that if you are distributing on the Google Play Store. – ianhanniballake Jun 01 '15 at 02:00
  • @ianhanniballake I am not releasing the application to the PlayStore. I am just using it for testing purposes. As a result, there is no 50 MB limit – charbelfa Jun 01 '15 at 02:02

The dock that comes with the LG G Watch R can also be plugged into the computer, allowing you to use the much faster USB connection to install your Wear app.
