Amyone has a backup of it? It was dropped from Play Store, so there is no other way to install it than find the apk file...

If you install the main app, doesn't it show up on the watch?
I don't have it yet, but the one I tested in market didn't show Endomondo app even when I had it installed on phone. Only xtensions I installed (media player) was shown.
However it doesn't show up in Smart Connect SmartWatch 2 settings, so it's not working that way...
Additionally I'm not sure if I still want it (or more if I need it so much).
It was automatically installed on My SW2 when install endomondo from playstore. No need a special extension. SW2 device is in endomondo setup.

Is it possible to intall apps on the sw3 and use it with an iphone?
All Android Wear watches, including the Sony Smartwatch 3, work with the iPhone. If your watch is too old you might need to connect it to an Android phone or computer to install an update first. The iPhone does not support apps but if you have an app that it completely independent (doesn't need a companion app on the phone to work) then you can download the Android APK and extract the watch's micro-APK from it, then use adb to install it to the watch.
any instructions on how to do this
Anybody where uses is Sony Smartwatch 3 with iphone?
i want to install more APPS but i don´t know how...

Hello, any news on this topic? I am wondering in using the SW3 as a standalone device with no pairing to any smartphone. Do you think this will be possible? Wifi and BT options only display when connected to an Android smartphone, not by pairing to iPhone.
Thank you.

This is not possible; you have to set up the watch with a phone before you can use it. Android Wear 2.0 will allow standalone apps, but I'm not sure about using the watch without setting it up with a phone, especially when the watch won't have its own cellular connection.
Hi, i have a problem with Play Music app after AW 2.0 update. On 1.5 i was able to download music to my watch by selecting Play Music from watch and then "Play on wear" which showed all the albums i have on my phone or selecting Play Music from my phone and in the settings there was a Android wear section and there was "manage downloads" but neither is now available on 2.0 :/ So you can't download music to your watch anymore or is it changed and i just can't figure out how to do it now with 2.0? Please, can someone help me?
Btw, all my music are transferred by using PC from my original cd's to my phone so no albums bought from Google Play. Maybe after AW 2.0 update, downloading music to my watch only supports music bought straight from Google Play which would suck
I am very interested in this also since I use the smartwatch to listen to music directly from it with Bluetooth Headphones when I'm at the gym. If it doesn't work I won't be updating it.
Seriously guys, no one else uses Play Music to download some tracks to their Huawei Watch from phone? Why the hell it was changed in AW 2.0 since it worked so well on 1.5?

Yesterday I opened Play Music HW App.
Now it works really close to the one on the smartphone...
It is possible to stream music via wifi or to download music directly from your smartwatch. (wifi or bluetooth).
To download a song, a album or a Playlist you just need to press and hold for 1 second the icon of your selection .. .so the download will start..
I verified that if you are not charging your smartwatch it is possible that the download pauses...
This morning after charge I had the info on my smartwatch that all albums have been downloaded.. and they work without problems
It works differently now. Android Police summarized it:

Hi, searching for a solution I founded 2 options: if you use Google Play Music you have to create an account and suscribe for about 25 dollars/year and it works fine. Another option is to install Wear Media from the Play Store and it works like the old play music, you can download your music to your wacth, it also works fine. Wear Media also have the shuffle option!

Thanks for the tip!
Wear Media is an app you install both on the smartphone and on the watch? Is it free?
Cheers

Well, that's really stupid :/ I hope Google brings back the sideloading feature with later updates. I'm definitely not gonna subscribe to Play Music! I have over 200 original music cd's that i rip to my PC and then transfer to my smartphones.

Hi! Yes its free! Download it to your phone and it installs in your watch. Then in your phone you select what music you transfer to your watch.
At least there are such skilled devs that can fix what mighty Google frakked up..

Hello
I am new to your site, so i hope this is ok to post here.
Please help........I fell for a beautiful all singing all dancing Sony SW2 on ebay, unfortunatly Sony tell me that the SW2 is a no longer a product supported by Sony and that is why the Smart Connect app is available but not the Sony Smartwatch 2 Host. The watch does say it is connected to my Xperia L3 and vise versa but it is not responsive at all to the phone. and if i turn the watch off then on again it just asks me for the SW2 host again.
Is there a way of over riding the watches request for the host app or have i just paid £42 for a lovely looking calculater watch?
Thank you all in advance.

Thank you,
Louise
You can search "sony sw2" on the playstore. There are still many apps
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=sony sw2&c=apps
Hi
I still face the same issue, even I installed the apk you gave us, i cannot open it or launch it What can I do it's for a gift
Thank you in advance.
Cheers

Same issue here. Just gave it to my son. He has OnePlus 3. Sony actually hosts the APK file on their site, but when I install it, you can only hit "Done", as "Open" is grayed out. There is nothing in the app drawer, and nothing under internal storage/Android/data
Master app is the "Sony Smart Connect" the "Smartwatch SW2" app is only a plugin for the master app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonyericsson.extras.liveware
But not all "Smart Connect App" works with all phone/watch/plugin. I must often install older Smart Connect Version depend of phone and Android version. Not special rules, I must try differents versions from my differents backup until it works. It is the game with older device and older software on older or newest phone and OS
I just found this site and downloaded your backup but how do I get it to my smartwatch2? I tried plugging the usb cord from the watch to my pc but nothing registers under "My Computer" to be able to transfer a file?
Is there any apps/extensions who still works on Sony smartwatch 2? I just have the five basic apps(alarm, flashlight, calculator, stop watch and timer. I have tried to install several apps/extensions but nothing have been synced to the watch so that I could use them
Almost all works. Just need use old Sony Smart Connect and Smartwatch 2 plugin.
I use Smart Connect V5.7.35.0001
and Smartwatch 2 app V 1.6.31
this works on Android 11
Hello everyone! Extensions don't seem to show on the app after being installed. I'm using a Galaxy A50 on Android 10 / OneUI 2.5, any clue?

Thank you for the reply, I have both of those apps with exact same version as you wrote, what extensions do you use at your watch?

You're a lifesaver. Just got it working on android Q. Thanks!
If it helps anyone : I had installed first the Sony Smart Connect V5.7.35.0001, then tried connecting to the watch, then installed the apk Smartwatch2 app V1.6.31 from Sony's website.
It did not work, even after a reboot, because the Smart connect was still trying to install the plugin.
I removed and reinstalled the Sony Smart Connect app and rebooted the phone : it recognized the plugin automatically.
So I would say : try installing the SmartWatch2 host apk first, then the Smart Connect app from the store.
Hi. Is there a call app available? Don't need to answer, just want to see who's calling when a call comes in, I answer on my headset. Really desperate, does anybody have any info? Thanks

Informer - Notifications for Sony SW2This app is the only one I found that displayed missed calls etc. It's rather unreliable for me. Try it yourself.

Thanks, I've downloaded it. Quite good but doesn't really seem to do calls. I went on to Sony and they seem to have the calling apk but I can't get it to work. Does it work for anyone else?

I bought this watch 2 days ago, having a nightmare with it. Hours and hours trying to make it work at my Samsung 10. Sony Smart Connect and Smartwatch App installed and paring with the phone. The problem is that as I could search on the web, the native apps provided in Sony's website just work with Sony smartphones. At the end of the day it is a useless smartwatch if you expect it to at least have the Calling Function.
If someone wants to use the Samsung Gear 360 camera, they will get a non-compatible message when they want to download the app from Google Play. There is a solution to this problem. You download the app to another phone, get the .apk file. You copy it to your Z Fold 2 phone, install it and it works.
good to know i will try it out this week.
Installed the Gear App, which errored out till I discovered that I also needed to find and install the apk for the Samsung Accessory Service as well.
This allows me to connect the camera to my phone, but will not allow for any kind of live feed or access to the gallery. I CAN however still take pictures via the dropdown notification.
Anyone figured out a way to use the actual app?
hello,
I own vw polo 2019 with an android head unit, with a launcher installed by the dealer.
it hides a lot of apps including settings.
about a year ago I was able to somehow download play store and install some apps, but after an update the play store and the apps Ive downloaded are gone (idk if deleted or just hidden because of the launcher).
now, I heard there is a way to access the web browser via the Waze app (if anyone has a different way I’ll be glad), and install the store again.
but my problem starts here - I no longer have data connection in my car, meaning I need to connect it to hotspot, but since I can’t access the settings app, I can’t do it.
I don’t know much about android since I have an iPhone, so is there anyone who knows how to access settings, and install play store again? and better - change the launcher so I will not have to do it all the time?
thanks!
hello?
