The past several days are not good for Android/Google. Last weekend, they fought a spyware that got into your device. Then, I read about a glitch that messes up reminders. Android Wear Glitches: This is so bad timing.
This glitch is in the Android Wear 2.0 smartwatch. Smartwatch owners, not Android leaders, complain of bugs messing up the software. Furthermore, some say recent updates are causing these Android wear glitches. And then there are the watches that hardly work at all. All you can do is basic Internet searches like on an old PC. But some say these glitches won’t even let you control your timer.
But this isn’t the first or only problem with Android Wear 2.0. Many complain of their watch making false reminders. Customers thought Android fixed the problem with a patch. But apparently not. Because owners still claim some of their reminders are still missing. So some may say, “Oh, that’s just a minor thing. That’s nothing”. This is more serious than you think. What if you miss a job interview or deadline because your smartphone reminder doesn’t work? Worse yet, what if you forget to take your critical medication because your reminders were acting up? Now some may say, “They should remember that stuff anyway”. But remember how attached we are to smart technology today.
Google assures the public they’re fixing this Android wear glitches. They insists they the glitches will be repaired soon. But I think this is falling on deaf ears. How may times do they hear this? And yet, this is happening again and again. In computer repair, if people have the same mistakes over and over, then people get suspicious. The timing is so bad. Because the smartwatch business already isn’t doing so hot. Then, Apple is coming out with their smartwatch soon. Will the Android Wear 2.0 smartwatch survive?
