How to install Android Wear Companion App on Android Phone Emulator - android

I'm developing an android app which can push notifications to android wear device (watch in this case). I've no phone running Android 4.0.3 or above and 've no watch either. All I want to do is develop an app on emulator which can push notifications to watch on emulator.
I've followed and have created emulators with almost same specs as in this tutorial: https://kennethmascarenhas.wordpress.com/2014/08/19/developing-for-android-wear-with-emulators/
However, I'm stuck on step where it says: "Next, you will have to install the Android Wear companion app on your Phone emulator."
There's no google play app on the emulator. I've attempted to download couple of APK's from web (etc. http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-wear/android-wear-1-0-5-1630507-apk/), but it never installs. I can't figure this out. Kindly help.

How to run android wear emulator connected with real android phone in android studio?

I am developing an android watch application. I don't have physical watch device. In order to run, I'm connecting my physical phone with emulator watch to test it. But, after clicking on run application, it gives 'missing watch' error.
I have followed all the steps from this link (http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/49586/how-do-i-connect-an-android-wear-emulator-to-a-real-phone/) and in my android wear application, the emulator status is showing 'Connected'.
Can anyone please tell me how to run wear emulator connected with android real mobile device in android studio?
Select the Android Wear Round Chin API 26 on that dialog what you show. You start the companion app on the phone, and the wear part on the Wear (emulator or physical device). Then you'll see if it's really connected as soon as you try to communicate with the companion app.

Cannot upload compiled app to Pebble Watch, but can connect

I'm working on an app between an Android phone and Pebble watch. Currently, I'm just trying to setup a basic hello_world.c app provided on cloudpebble.net, but I receive an "Unfortunately, Pebble has stopped working" error. The website will then say "Upload failed. No response from phone".
This is particularly bizarre because I have verified the connection between the phone, watch, and website through being able to take a screenshot of the watch face, which does not crash the app and works fine.
I am using a Samsung Galaxy S3.
I dont use cloudpebble, but the command line tool should work similar.
I found that installing an app compiled with an SDK Version > 3.7 on pebble watch with old firmware on classic pebble crashs the pebble app.

Deploying Android Wearable Apps on Moto 360 for Debug Purposes

I'm trying to write a wearable app with custom layout notifications, however my emulator is not displaying custom wearable notifications properly. (I just get a card with a black box... it even happens on the sample app notifications).
I have a Moto 360 but since it doesn't have a USB port, I don't know how to deploy a debugable app on there using Android Studio.
Any thoughts? (Trying to not create and package and app / publish to the store to debug as that would be a huge waste of time if there is a way to directly package apps and ship them to the moto 360).
You can deploy your app on your smartphone connected via BT to your 360.
