I have setup my eclipse and made it that when you install my app on your phone it will automatically(if paired with your android wear device) come onto the person's android wear device. But I have tested out all these apps that work just like me and i have seen that the ui elements all look very similar. How do i design my apps. I am pretty sure i have to use more than the palette in eclipse, but do i have to use some screen designer software, or is there some specific code i have to write? Is there anything to import for designing the layouts? Thanks in advance.
Android Studio has a great visual editor for creating UI layouts for Android Wear. It has a lot of support to help you with this, and if you are getting started with Android Wear, this is the best tool to start working with. I would only recommend using Eclipse for legacy applications where you are already using Eclipse and you cannot easily change over.

I've done alot of research about app developpement but i dont seems to find a consent about creating an application that work on iphone and android with one time coding.
I'd like to know if it's possible to create an application with android studio and js that work on iphone and android device without any modification?
If not, is there a software that I can use to create an application that work on both and witch language can I use? For exemple Facebook work on iphone and android, it would be strange if they had created two separate app ...
I've never created an app for iphone before so I hope I'm clear about what I asked.
Thanks for your time.
You can use flutter also for application development that allows you to create app in android and IOS both at the same time.
I have a question, is it possible to write android apps without android studio? I know languages like C and java The problem is the following: I have a 4 GB RAM and as you all know, android studio is hungry for memory. I have tried to reduce android studio memory usage by disabling some plugins. One of the sources I have seen is This: https://techzog.com/development/android-studio-high-ram-usage/ however, I still have problems, particularly with my screen reader crushing and needing to constantly restart screen reader to read out contents of the window. So, my thinking was, is there a way to develop apps with IDE like visual studio code for example, or even simpler, notepad++ and then somehow build the project? The issue with this is project file structure creation, which has a lot of files and etc. Besides that, android studio has powerful capabilities for debugging on device, managing dependencies, APIs and etc. Is there some way to do this (possibly harder way) but without android studio? I prefer developing native vs hybrid or web apps. I have even tried python and developing some apps with beeware, but I still prefer native. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can do with Visual Studio code by using Kotlin. Also your app will be able to run at Android and IOS.
I need to know help on which is more efficient to do. This is my situation I already have a GUI using PyQt programmed for windows I want it to be also installed on an android phone. Should I find away to packaged(through pyqtdeploy or any other means) to android or make another similar GUI with same functionalities using Kivy because its much more android friendly?
For now, I think you should learn Kivy because pyqtdeploy is a young project. The Dev team still working on it to fix some bugs.
But in the future, if pyqtdeploy become efficient, it will be the best choice !
PyQt5 has many incredible widgets and you use also QML to design more advanced interface for mobile devices (Android & iOS).
I do not have to do such manual updating in App Inventor so it is logical that Eclipse would have a similar automatic update feature.
App Inventor is made especially for non-programmers. Its main purpose is to give everybody the possibility to basicly develop an app so that one with a great idea and no or low programming knowledge would be able to get it done.
Now, Eclipse is an IDE that integrates great with the Android SDK. So it only helps you with basic stuff that any IDE does, plus some things about Android integration (like test your app on the emulator/device really easy).
Was wondering if anyone knew of some third party android development toolkits.
I have found Basic4Android.
Was wondering what other options are available.Language does not matter.
Thanks
Qt for Android (Alpha version) got launched last week.
Motorola has a custom dev environment built on top of eclipse (MOTODEV). It is not Motorola specific and you can use it for regular development. I have been playing around with it for a week and it is much more convenient than the standard Android Eclipse plugin.
EDIT: Forgot to mention there is AppInventor (currently in Beta) which is a drag and drop development environment from Google. It is a useful tool if you want to get a feel for development or you are developing just for your phone. It does not generate Java code (as yet) and there some restrictions on it like only single screen apps are supported. It has got a healthy community and lot of college students (in the U.S) seem to be using it.
MonoDroid is also another development stack for Android using C# and .NET API's. You can use Microsoft Visual Studio IDE to develop applications using MonoDroid.
