I already have a fully-functioning phone app and now need a lightweight companion that lives on the wrist. You’ll receive the existing codebase, design assets and a clear breakdown of the data points that matter most to users when they glance at their Apple Watch or Wear OS device.

Your task is to build a companion experience that:
• Mirrors the most important live data from the phone, syncing quickly and reliably over Bluetooth/Wi-Fi.
• Presents that data through complications (Apple Watch) or tiles (Wear OS) so it’s always visible without opening the app.
• Supports a handful of “one-tap” actions—think quick replies, music controls or workout toggles—implemented in a way that feels native to each platform.
• Adapts gracefully to tiny, round or square screens with typography, haptics and colors that preserve battery and readability.

Deliverables
1. Fully working companion app (Apple Watch, Wear OS, or both—final scope confirmed after we talk).
2. Source code with clean architecture, documented APIs for data hand-off from the phone.
3. Test plan covering sync reliability, offline handling and UI edge cases.
4. Brief hand-off guide so my in-house team can publish future updates.

If you have proven experience shipping watchOS or Wear OS apps, especially those that lean on complications/tiles and background sync, I’d love to see your work. Let’s create something users can trust at a glance.
