WatchKit and UIAlertView / UIAlertController popup

In my WatchKit app, when the user first launches it, I would like to present to them a helpful message alert that tells them how the app works, e.g. what the buttons do, etc.

Is there something similar to UIAlertView / UIAlertController that I can call in a WatchKit app? I couldn't find an answer on this topic which may very well mean that it's not possible.

Solution

  • (New in watchOS 2.0) 

     WKAlertAction *act = [WKAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"OK" style:WKAlertActionStyleCancel handler:^(void){
        NSLog(@"ALERT YES ");
    }];

 NSArray *testing = @[act];

[self presentAlertControllerWithTitle:@"Voila" message:@"This is Watch OS 2 !" preferredStyle:WKAlertControllerStyleAlert actions:testing];

    SWIFT 

    func showPopup(){

    let h0 = { print("ok")}

    let action1 = WKAlertAction(title: "Approve", style: .default, handler:h0)
    let action2 = WKAlertAction(title: "Decline", style: .destructive) {}
    let action3 = WKAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel) {}

    presentAlert(withTitle: "Voila", message: "", preferredStyle: .actionSheet, actions: [action1,action2,action3])

}
