11 new things you can do with your Android Wear smartwatch
If you have one of the Android Wear watches set to receive Android Wear 2.0 (full list in link) over the next few weeks, you're in for a treat. For those who pick up the new LG Watch Sport or LG Watch Style, well, you're in for a treat as well.
Google redesigned the interface and added new features that are aimed directly at competing with the Apple Watch, and giving Android fans a more capable wearable.
Below are 11 tips and tricks to help you get the most out of Android Wear 2.0.

Your watch is now a stand-alone Android device, complete with access to the Play Store. In order to download, update or use Google services and apps on your watch, you'll need to add a Google account to it.
The first time you power on a device running Android Wear 2.0, you will see a prompt asking you to add your Google account to the watch. Adding your account is easy, just follow the prompts in the Android Wear app on your phone.
2. Basic navigation
Android Wear 2.0 still relies heavily on gestures and taps for navigation. However, the functionality of button(s) on the watch will be different for each model of watch. It's a good idea to go through the tutorial after updating your watch. The tutorial will show you which button does what, assuming your device has more than one. If there is only one button, then view it as a home button.
Some basic navigation tips I found useful are:
Swipe from the left-edge of the display to go back one screen.
Swipe down from the tap of the screen to view an app's menu.
The main button on your watch should function as a home button with a quick press, and bring up Assistant with a long-press.
You can now add apps to a watch without using a phone.Screenshot by Jason Cipriani/CNET
Since your watch no longer relies on your phone, you now have access to a dedicated Android Wear Play Store on your wrist.
First, launch the Play Store and agree to the terms and services. A list of apps with pending updates will show up, followed by a list of apps you have installed on your phone that also offer an Android Wear version. You can search, browse by category and discover apps built specifically for your watch.
You can enhance watchfaces with complications.Screenshot by Jason Cipriani/CNET
Android Wear watchfaces now include complications, giving you an app shortcut or glanceable information without having to actually launch an app.
For example, a complication for the Calendar app puts your next appointment on your watch face at all times. Or you can set Google Fit to constantly show your step total for the day.
Customize complications with a long press on the watchface, then tapping on the icon for each respective complication. Select the app or info you want the complication to represent, then press the home button to save your settings.
The Google Assistant is ready to take your requests from the watch.Jason Cipriani/CNET
Google Assistant, which lets you make voice-based commands is now on Android smartwatches. That means you can get a lot of things done through your watch, without ever touching it.
Long-press the power button on your watch to activate Assistant, and then ask questions or give commands. Swipe up from the bottom of the Assistant screen for suggestions of what you can ask and do with Assistant.
Tailor how Google Assistant functions on your Android Wear watch by opening the Wear app on your phone and tap on the Settings icon. Under the Assistant section, tap on Settings.
6. Quickly change your look
With a quick swipe to the right or left across your watch face you can switch between faces with ease.
It's a quick gesture to switch between, say, a watchface for work, complete with complications that you can use while on the job and another watchface for workouts, encouraging you to run faster.
A swipe up or down on a saved watchface will delete it.

Vice President Mike Pence and his wife Karen invited a group of more than 22 countries' leaders to the White House for a cocktail reception
In the spring of 2017, a high level Trump administration official asked for details on how many Haitians with Temporary Protected Status were on public benefits, how many were convicted of “crimes of any kind,” and how many had been in the country unlawfully before being granted TPS. When told by staffers that this information wasn’t relevant to granting TPS and that the existing data “wasn’t good,” she continued to press ahead. She explained that the Homeland Security Secretary “is going to need this to make a final decision” that spring on whether to extend TPS for Haitians. They were granted the right to stay in the U.S. after a devastating 2010 earthquake. To critics of that decision, these emails, obtained through the Freedom of Information Act by the National Immigration Project of the National Lawyers Guild, reveal an administration intent on seeking negative information to doom the renewal of TPS for nearly 60,000 Haitians. “Keep in mind that this is in no way relevant to dec
