Horologist is a group of libraries that aim to supplement Wear OS developers with features that are
commonly required by developers but not yet available.

## Maintained Versions

The currently maintained branches of Horologist are.

Maintenance branches will not delete existing APIs and they should remain stable. However
the main branch will actively update to incorporate new API guidance, removing or changing
APIs.

## 🎵 Media

Horologist provides the Media Toolkit: a set of libraries to build Media apps on Wear OS and a
sample app that you can run to see the toolkit in action.

The toolkit is designed using a clean architecture and includes:

*   **Core & Playback Modules**:
    *   [horologist-media-core](https://google.github.io/horologist/media-core) (`:media:core`): Core domain models, interfaces, and state representations for media playback, agnostic of the underlying player implementation.
    *   [horologist-media-data](https://google.github.io/horologist/media-data) (`:media:data`): Implementation of the domain module using [AndroidX Media3](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/media3).
    *   [horologist-media3-backend](https://google.github.io/horologist/media3-backend) (`:media:backend-media3`): Background playback service and engine built on Media3, enforcing Wear OS specific routing rules (e.g. requiring Bluetooth output).
*   **UI & Presentation Modules**:
    *   [horologist-media-ui-model](https://google.github.io/horologist/media-ui-model) (`:media:ui-model`): Shared presentation data classes and view states for media UI.
    *   [horologist-media-ui-material3](https://google.github.io/horologist/media-ui-material3) (`:media:ui-material3`): Modern Material 3 high-level media UI screens, scaffolds, and responsive components.
    *   [horologist-media-ui](https://google.github.io/horologist/media-ui) (`:media:ui`): Legacy Material 2 media UI components and screens.
*   **Audio & Volume Modules**:
    *   [horologist-audio](https://google.github.io/horologist/audio) (`:media:audio`): Core domain models, output device trackers, and volume managers.
    *   [horologist-audio-ui-model](https://google.github.io/horologist/audio-ui-model) (`:media:audio-ui-model`): Shared audio presentation view states.
    *   [horologist-audio-ui-material3](https://google.github.io/horologist/audio-ui-material3) (`:media:audio-ui-material3`): Modern Material 3 volume and output selector UI components.
    *   [horologist-audio-ui](https://google.github.io/horologist/audio-ui) (`:media:audio-ui`): Legacy Material 2 audio and volume controls.
*   **Utilities & Services**:
    *   `media:media3-logging`: Diagnostic logging utilities for tracking Media3 player events on Wear OS.
    *   `media:media3-outputswitcher`: Output switching and Bluetooth pairing prompt controllers.
    *   `media:sync`: Offline content, download queue, and play state synchronization between phone and watch.
*   **Applications & Benchmarks**:
    *   [media sample](https://google.github.io/horologist/media-sample) (`:media:sample`): Main media player sample app (UAMP clone) showcasing local and streaming music, downloads, volume control, and Navigation 3.
    *   `media:benchmark` & `media:sample-benchmark`: Macrobenchmarks and performance test suites for the libraries and the sample application.

It includes libraries to build
[prompts on the phone](https://google.github.io/horologist/datalayer-phone-ui/) to improve
engagement with the correspondent Wear app and a
[sample](https://google.github.io/horologist/datalayer-sample/) to see the prompts in actions.
Find guidance in the project [documentation](https://google.github.io/horologist/datalayer/).
