Google is readying Android 16’s Live Updates for Wear OS and we couldn’t be happier
- Google has confirmed that Android 16’s Live Updates are headed to Wear OS.
- The feature will be introduced on Wear OS wearables in 2026.
- Google could integrate Live Updates with Wear OS Tiles or introduce an entirely new system to deliver them.
Live Updates is one of the most talked-about features in Android 16. Finally, Android users will be able to track real-time progress of activities from delivery, rideshare, and navigation apps on their home screens. It’s a feature iPhone users have enjoyed for a while now, but Android’s implementation already seems better from what we’ve seen so far. Yesterday, we told you that Android’s Live Updates won’t be limited to Pixel phones and are coming to more supported Android handsets. Well, as it turns out, the feature is traversing form factors and is also headed for your wrists.
