This is a utility that shows all kinds of useful information about the display on your Android and Android Wear devices. When built in release mode and installed to your phone or tablet, it will also install a wearable APK to your Android Wear device.
Wear ScreenInfo can be run as a regular application on any device, but is also available as a watch face on Android Wear. This allows you to get a complete understanding of every aspect of the display as either an Activity, or a watch face service.
Some of the information presented includes the display resolution, density, physical size, resource qualifiers, insets, canvas size, and view size. Extra information about the hardware is also presented, such as processor, board, manufacturer, and firmware build id. See the screenshots below for examples of what the application looks like.
This sample uses the Gradle build system. To build this project in release mode with the embedded wearable APK, you will need to use "gradlew assembleRelease" or use Android Studio and the "Generate Signed APK" menu option.
