How to hide Native Application UI for Gear without stopping it

Dear Sirs,

I'm working on a native app project for Gear S3, S2.

I would like to hide the UI of this application without stopping processes running in it.

Could you help me with this question?

Thanks,

Khanh

Hello,

You have to use native service app for wearable to run the processes in background without using any UI. You can use that if you don't need any UI in your app.

Thanks.

If you just want to send your app to the background, try calling elm_win_lower() on the main window.

Dear Sirs,

Thank you for your answer.

I have another question:

Is it possible to create an UI with a transparent background which allow users can continue to interact with a Gear as usual but some information can be shown properly as normal text, such as CPUinfo app in phone devices ???

Thank you so much.

Please open a new thread so that other developers can get help from this.

Also provide a screenshot of the UI you're trying to create in that thread if possible.
