If anyone here also has a Tile for their app. I've added support to the Horologist project for Android Studio previews (via the Compose @ Preview annotation). Here shown previewing different devices (small round, large round, square) and font sizes.

It makes the edit, compile, run cycle automatic (basically a couple of seconds) but also lets you test your design on multiple devices at once.

Because it needs to call your Tile generation without a Service running, it does similar to Compose stateful/stateless composables. So you have a data class that represents all input state required to render the tile, and then work on that. In the example above that is SingleTileState.

Aren't interactive previews supported as well?

Is this about these tiles previews? Yes, but they don't change. Tiles are static. And I haven't looked into handling the actions (load or intents).

Not sure if anyone else uses Fastlane, but I'm using these Tile previews to generate screenshots for my play store listing https://github.com/yschimke/rememberwear/blob/main/wear/src/androidTest/kotlin/com/google/wear/soyted/fastlane/ScreengrabTest.kt#L80-L85
