Demonstrates use of the Awareness APIs to intelligently react to the current situation of the user.
The Awareness API exposes five different context types, which include user activity, and nearby beacons. These types enable your app to refine the user experience in new ways that were not possible before. Your app can combine these context signals to make inferences about the current situation of the user, and use this information to provide customized experiences, such as a playlist suggestion when the user plugs in their headphones and starts to jog.
This sample demonstrates the Snapshot API to get information about the current environment of the user.
Developers can find more about this API and other Awareness APIs in our Getting Started page.
Users can request the current environment by pressing the "Request Snapshot" button.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Awareness APIs (both Snapshot and Fend) require an API key in your manifest. Check this link for more information.
