The Android Wear Developer Preview lets you create wearable experiences for your existing Android apps and see how they will appear on square and round Android wearables.
</p>
<p>
Later this year, we’ll be launching the Android Wear SDK, enabling even more customized experiences.

<p>Stack Multiple Notifications</p>

<p>
You can also trigger your notifications contextually using existing Android APIs. For example, use <a href="{@docRoot}training/location/geofencing.html">geofences</a> to provide glanceable information to your users when they are at home, or use the <a href="{@docRoot}training/location/activity-recognition.html">activity detection APIs</a> to send messages to your users’ wrists while they are bicycling.
</p>
<p>See the <a href="{@docRoot}wear/design/index.html">Android Wear Developer Preview Design Principles</a> for more suggestions on creating great wearable experiences.</p>
