WearSocials 2.0

Scan, store, manage, view, share —the best code wallet out there.

In late 2023, Facundo Holzmeister, aka HowToMen on YouTube, announced plans to feature WearSocials in his Top 20 Best Android Apps 2024 video.

He expressed his fondness for the app and suggested enhancements. Initially, WearSocials (1.0) focused solely on displaying links on smart devices.

Responding to Facundo’s feedback, WearSocials Version 2.0 now supports a wider range of codes and data types, evolving into a versatile code wallet for managing and showcasing codes at events, festivals, parties, and more.

  • Discover our sleek, new UI, distinctively separating the Wear-OS section for optimized code management. This refined interface allows for effortless viewing and the addition of new codes, enhancing your overall user experience.

WearSocials Wear-OS 2.0

In the latest update of the Wear-OS app, each code now prominently displays its respective data type. For URLs, this includes the display of the website’s favicon for easy recognition. Alongside, you can readily identify the format of each code.

At the core of the display is the code itself, accompanied by a customizable title, enhancing both clarity and personalization.

Furthermore, the updated Wear-OS app boasts enhanced support for rotary input, offering a more intuitive and user-friendly navigation experience.

Examples for contact information, URL, and an event ticket.
