[Q] Advert on Wear? - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is a strange one! A notification for the movie The Interview just popped up on my Wear watch, I have no clue what app pushed this - could have been a Now notification or maybe something from the Play Store? It seems to have a bespoke background so it's quite different from the usual suspects.

The time would have been about 11:15am or something. I watched this when it was released so I haven't Googled it recently (if it's maybe a Card Preview).
Didn't interact with it in time to swipe and see more. On that note, is there anyway to go back to previously dismissed or lapsed notifications?

It's just a ad for the movie

Yes clearly it's an ad for the movie, what I'm wondering is which app or service etc sent the notification to the watch.

Did you also have it in the phone? no menu when you swipe left?
If it's an wear app, you can connect watch to computer and use "ps" command in "adb shell", and try to find it by its name.

Came across that while trying to fix something else, this goes hand in hand with the WP7 device integration or Skype integration, whichever tile that was. Were there any other blatant hints?
EDIT: The Apple site you see behind there has an Android section so they're cool, no need for attacks.
Umm, that's in Windows 7 too.. For Skype etc.

Never seen it in Windows 7. if it is, then the Phone tile isn't news.
Yea it's in win7.
Just right click on the speaker icon in the little "notification bar", select something.
And then you've got the same settings as in your screenshot.
Yup that is Windows 7 too. It basically lowers down volume of all applications when you have for example skype call. I have skype almost all the time, so i had to turn it off

Note 3 not showing up on Google Play Web interface

I know its not strictly a Note 3 issue but was hoping someone might know why:
My device doesn't show up as an option in the Play Store. So I cant browse for an app and push the app to the phone.
I can browse the app store and pull apps down FROM the phone... but I would like to be able to do it the other way like I can for my other Android devices..
I'm running a Stock ROM and am not rooted or Knox triggered.
Do you mean like this?

Mine picked it up straight away.
Can you see the device in settings? (Gear icon --> Settings). Could be that "Show in Menu" isn't checked.

Why is my weather card so large?

On all the photos I see of wear devices the weather card is small, but on mine it shows the location name which takes up alot of space and ruins many watch faces. How can I make it smaller like the first image?

Facer and WatchMaker have a Settings option for adjusting the notification card size.
Upgrade (if you have not already)
Open the Android Wear App on your phone, go to Get more watch faces, and any watch face you see will give you smaller "Weather Cards"
Older watch faces have not been updated to the latest Android Wear.

"Disconnect from Watch" in Android Wear App?

After the most recent Android Wear app update the ability to disconnect from the watch seems to have disappeared from the menu. I don't always wear my watch and generally the Wear App will destroy your battery life when it's left always searching. Where did the option go?

I'm also searching for a feature like that. Is there a way to automatically disconnect the watch if it is not on my wrist?
They removed that feature, I'm not sure why.
Maybe you can just unpair the watch in your phone's Bluetooth to the same result? Then re pair when you want to re connect.

I have the "Mute connected phone" option activated and would like to change that automatically when i don't wear my watch, but i think there is no way. :crying:

Mi Tv Stick : Get rid of shared controls.

My Friend and I share a network. So whenever he turns on his MI TV stick, everyone at our house gets a notification for shared controls. How do I turn it off? we tried using google home app method which we found on google but that does not work as settings screen for the said device is blank. My dad or my wife sometime stop the media being played as they were not aware of the situation. (My friend complained me that his videos keep stopping and he has no Idea why which was hilarious.). Though it does not affect me directly, it gets very annoying fast. How do I get rid of shared controls.
