Hi all 😄! I was wondering if there be a WearableNavigationDrawerView in jetpack compose or not :)!

[yschimke]

It's now an anti-pattern from what I understand. So best avoided.

[yschimke]

Actually I was thinking https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/wear/widget/drawer/WearableActionDrawerView

[yschimke]

But generally the Wear Compose components have most of whats needed, so older patterns aren't really needed.

[FEDUSS]

Thanks for your reply! I will use compose-pagination instead (https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/compose/pagination)

The issue with WearableNavigationDrawerView is that it conflicts with the Samsung GW4 status bar. It is a big problem with Samsung UI on wear os3. I am using the horologist WearNavScaffold. Maybe it is useful for you too, since it also supports the TimeText and others great features tailored for wear compose.

That's a big issue, since i'm developing on galaxy watch 4 and 5 pro. Now i'm trying with horizontalPager of accompanist, it's a good replacement for my app's flow

[yschimke]

If you are happy using alphas, pager from accompanist is deprecated. But Compose foundation has a replacement.

[FEDUSS]

Oh ok, thanks for the info

[yschimke]

Horologist PagerScreen combines the foundation pager with the wear compose page indicator

[FEDUSS]

Ok...so, it seems the right way to procede :)

@FEDUSS if you’re looking some some inspiration for redesign, we worked with Todoist team to migrate from drawer navigation pattern (outdated) to flatter app structure: https://9to5google.com/2022/05/12/todoist-wear-os-redesign/

cool! 😄
