Hi all - I'm delighted to announce that the Wear Compose team has released 1.5.0-beta01, the first beta release for the Wear Compose Material3 library.

Additional API changes in this release: the hierarchical focus API now splits the functionality between modifiers for the focus handling and a new LocalScreenIsActive composition local that can be checked to tell if a screen is the currently active one; SwipeToReveal has been updated so that the experimental Foundation API is now deprecated and those parts that are still used have been migrated to the material and material3 libraries - the release notes give more details on this iteration, which removes the SwipeToReveal DSL and makes use of slots for primary, secondary and undo actions.

Bug fixes: performance improvements to ScrollIndicator and LocalReduceMotion; fixed issues with EdgeButton and TransformingLazyColumn animations; updated motion of indeterminate CircularProgressIndicator; SwipeDismissableNavHost focus issue addressed; corrected the default alignment for ListHeader and ListSubHeader.

Please also see the release notes for a summary of the new components and features, as well as more details on the items called out above - thanks.
