Question

My current Android application defines its intent filter as:

<intent-filter>
   <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
   <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>

In order to extend the application to run on Glass, I understand that I need the following intent filter:

 <intent-filter>
     <action android:name="com.google.android.glass.action.VOICE_TRIGGER" />
 </intent-filter>            

If I replace my existing intent-filter with the one for Glass, would my application still work for tablets and other Android devices? Or, should I leave my existing filter as is and add a new filter for Glass? Regards.

Was it helpful?

Solution 2

For those interested, my testing shows that you can support Google Glass as well as other Android devices by adding both the intent filters.

OTHER TIPS

Few existing applications (any?!) have the user interface design and presentation required to be good GlassWare. I would recommend that you create a separate application, but share the underlying code as it makes architectural sense.
