As for the app, I think I'm going to rename this iteration to "Leaf Notification" and incorporate in most of the suggestions in this thread and in the Play reviews, but keep it somewhat niche for my uses. Then, if there's demand for it, I'll build out a full suite with more automation options, timers, send to car, etc. Though I'm not sure if there is demand for this, because a few other Leaf apps in the Play store seem pretty solid. I made mine because I wanted something that worked on Wear, but I figure it's worth fleshing out a bit more and making it a fairly simple/easy to use Leaf app.
Personally, I would stick to make it as much focused on wear. There are many leaf type apps and none for wear. Contemplating getting a moto 360 and this app would be AWESOME (so sorry, haven't gotten to test it with android wear).
You are right, I mostly use carwings just to turn on the climate control and maybe check the status. Suggestion - maybe you can make a toggle option to report bars instead of percent. As some pointed, carwing's percent is really a very gross estimate. Most of us leaf owners now know how much range we get from the bars and maybe not carwing's percentages. You could also add a toggle to display carwing's estimate range. I know its inaccurate, but driving a leaf for 3+ years I know just how inaccurate it is and that number gives me an idea of the actual range.
I don't know if you want to make this an option (select %, bars, or range in miles) or if you wanted to display all at once (or 2 or 1 depending on a person's selection) - it may be nice, if possible (sorry not a programer) to have the option to display whichever ones I want (1, 2 or 3 options displayed at once).
I don't remember if you were able to have a "push status" option. As for myself the climate control is the 95% usage of carwings. Every once in awhile i need the status, but not all the time and its never on a schedule (usually its when I am out and about and need to know my status to determine if I need to stay longer, QC on the way home or just go home).
Just random thoughts from someone's usage of carwings. Thanks again for putting this together!
