![]() To add an image to the device, drag the image to the device. In the lower right where the object library is, click the film icon. It also makes using photos easy, since they load into the media library. The watch extension handles sending data to the watch more efficiently if you have images in asset folders. The files will load into the assets folder.įor pre-loaded files, it is best to use the asset folder. In Finder, open the directory you stored the downloaded images. Select the Images.xcassets in the Watchkit App group. For our app we’ll place everything on the watch. It’s faster to have an image on the watch, but you have very limited memory. You have more space on your phone, but they send to the watch if they need to be loaded, which is slower. Which one you use depends on memory conservation versus speed requirements. The app lives on the watch and stores the images on the watch. The extension lives on the phone, and stores the images on the phone. Each one stores the pictures in a different place. You’ll see an Images.xcassets in each folder. In the navigator, open up the WatchKit Extension and the WatchKitApp folders. We will not be programming with them in this lesson, but they will give us practice space for images. In the new target options, select on both notifications and glances. In the editor drop down select Add Target. Make project using Swift as the language and a universal app. Make a new a new single view application SwiftWatchImage by pressing Shift-Command-N in Xcode. If you want all the images, you can download them in this zip file: WKImages Make a New Project You can right-click each of these images and download individually. We have two gradients, and plus and minus icon for our sliders, minus and plus designed icons, and a photo I tend to make the photo slightly larger than the space, and let the app re-size accordingly. All photos are retina so the filenames require the at the end of the file name For this lesson, we’ll use both photos and some designed elements. ![]() Everything for a button, group or slider icon will be much smaller.Īpple’s documentation strongly recommends. For a watch background, that would be the size you would need. With a very little amount of memory for storage, it’s also best to use one image that is easily scalable between the two sizes. Keep your images within this size for what you are going to do. The 38mm watch has a screen size of 272 px x 340 px and the 42mm is 312 px x 390px. With such a small size, we need to be careful about image sizes. ![]() In this first part we’ll work with the storyboard, then in Part two, we’ll look at using images in code. ![]() We’ll also use WKInterfaceImage, the Watch Kit equivalent to UIImage. We’ll discuss adding images to Buttons, Groups, and Interface controller and the slider’s min and max icons. It’s time to introduce true images to our WatchKit apps.
