<p>Google Play services 5.0 is currently being rolled out to the world.
|
||
We usually wait to release the Google Play services SDK until the rollout completes.
|
||
This ensures that your newly-updated apps can run on the most devices as possible.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>However, if you want to develop for Android Wear now, complete the following steps to get
|
||
special access to all the things you need to start developing, without waiting for the rollout to
|
||
complete.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class="warning"><b>Warning</b>: Do not publish any apps that are built with Google Play services
|
||
SDK 5.0 until the rollout is completed over the coming days. Your apps will break on most user
|
||
devices, which will degrade your apps’ user experience. We’ll publish an update to the
|
||
<a href="http://android-developers.blogspot.com/">Android Developer blog</a> when the rollout is done.
