After being launched in August and seeded in many of the smartphones, the Oreo update is now ready to be roll-out on Android Wearables. Till now it was running as a beta version only available for the LG Watch Sport.

The news of Android Oreo being released on the wearables has come from Hoi Lam, a moderator at Android Wear Developers community on Google+. However, he didn’t mention the name of any wearable which will get the update first, rather he posted, Timing is determined by each watch’s manufacturer.

  • Notification vibration strength setting
  • Touch lock option for wet conditions
  • Support for 7 new countries/languages
  • Plus more e.g. notification channels, battery saving background limits
