Hi,

I have been developing apps for Gear 1/2 and Gear S

But until now I had only installed Tizen Wearable SDK 1.x.x for my development environment.

When I search for Gear S2 development, I see that installing Tizen SDK 2.3.x (not Tizen Wearable SDK) is required.

What is the difference ?

Should I remove Tizen Wearable SDK and only install Tizen SDK ?

Does it also include SDK for Gear 1/2 and Gear S ?

Thanks.

Hi,

Gear S2 has circle UI and support Tizen 2.3.1. so you need to install Tizen SDK 2.3.1 to port your application for Gear S2.

f.y.i, I would suggest you to look at below topic as well.

With Tizen SDK 2.3.1 you can develop apps for Gear 2, Gear S and Gear S2...

But actually I will say its just good for developing standalone apps.. If your app need an HostDevice (Android App), U have some problems.

Because the current version of Tizen SDK 2.3.1 doesnt support the Samsung Accessory Protocol ...

Ok. So now I have both the old Tizen Wearable SDK and Tizen SDK 2.3.1 installed on my Windows PC.

I want to build both type of apps for S2 (standalone and app with Samsung Accessory Protocol)

How should I proceed ?

and, how can I choose which SDK I will use when I build on Tizen IDE ?

Thanks.
