March 2026 — Performance and API surface expansion for Wear OS remote components. Delivered core feature work, expanded test coverage, and expanded public API surface for Wear Material3 Remote to enable easier integration and faster partner adoption, while tightening quality through targeted bug fixes and lint/test improvements. Key features delivered: - RemoteTextStyle: Added tests and fixed copy behavior when TextStyle has unspecified text unit, now mapping to null to prevent runtime errors. - RemoteCompose: Implemented non-linear font scaling to align with Android accessibility sizing, improving readability across remotes. - RemoteButtonGroup: Spacing enhancements using spacedBy and added a dedicated spacing parameter for closer parity with Compose ButtonGroup. - Wear Material3 Remote Card components: Introduced RemoteCard, RemoteOutlinedCard, RemoteAppCard, and RemoteTitleCard with styling defaults and new card-related primitives. - Public API exposure for Wear Material3 Remote components: Exposed RemoteIcon, RemoteButton, RemoteText, RemoteButtonGroup, RemoteIconButton, RemoteTextButton, and related Card/Text/Icon APIs as public, including removal of restricted APIs where applicable; this enables direct usage in client apps and more predictable binary surface. Major bugs fixed: - RemoteCompactButton: Fixed text alignment and wrapping in screenshot tests by adjusting contentAlignment and wrapping behavior. - Cleanups: Removed restricted API suppression in Wear Remote Material3 Compose and cleaned up related code paths; addressed lint/test stability. - RemoteCircularProgressIndicator: Removed use of RemoteSolidColor to simplify rendering and reduce dependencies; ensured lint/test stability. - ProfilePreviewParameterProvider/spec baseline cleanup: Removed restricted API usage and updated baseline to align with public surface changes. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Accelerated onboarding for developers by increasing public surface area for Wear Material3 Remote, reducing friction to adopt and integrate remote UI in apps. - Strengthened accessibility and consistency across remote typography and components, improving end-user experience and compliance with Android accessibility standards. - Improved build health and test reliability through targeted fixes and lint cleanups, enabling faster iteration cycles. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - AndroidX Wear Material3, Compose Remote, API surface exposure, Gradle API exposure, lint and test-driven development, screenshot testing, and integration testing. - Design and architectural improvements: RemoteMaterialTheme refactor to a single LocalRemoteMaterialTheme CompositionLocal, clarifying color/typography/shape provisioning. - Collaboration and maintenance: multiple commit streams across typography, layout, components, and API exposure with attention to backward compatibility and binary surface stability.
