Detect if Wear OS device is connected to iPhone

Is there a way to determine if my Android watches are connected to an android phone or an iPhone?

We have a business case do differs between these two cases and use PKCE for android and DAG authorization flow for iPhones. I want to know when to apply each flow

Solution

  • You could use PhoneTypeHelper:

    PhoneTypeHelper.getPhoneDeviceType(context) == PhoneTypeHelper.DEVICE_TYPE_IOS

    More info in Details for detecting the type of paired phone.
