Publish Wear OS watch face and an Android companion app


I have built a watch face app for Wear OS on Watch Face Studio and published the .aab from there to Google Play. So far so good, however I've now built a companion app with Android Studio and got another .aab from there. My question is how do I publish both of these separate apps as one to Google Play? (Both have the same package name)


Solution

  • Publishing them in the same listing with the same package name is completely normal and in fact required.

    Under Advanced make sure you have a Wear OS type added

    Not sure if it is different when you start with a Wear OS app only.
