The phone app includes a phone-side configuration example. -Additional note on Steps WatchFace Sample, if the user has not installed or setup the Google Fit app -on their phone and their Wear device has not configured the Google Fit Wear App, then you may get -zero steps until one of the two is setup. Please note, many Wear devices configure the Google Fit -Wear App beforehand. - +Because watch face apps do not have a default Activity in their project, you will need to set your +Configurations to "Do not launch Activity" for both the Wear and Application modules. If you are +unsure how to do this, please review the "Run Starter project" section in the +[Google Watch Face Code Lab][1]. + +For the Fit Distance related watch face, authentication IS a requirement to request distance from +Google Fit on Wear. Otherwise, distance will always come back as zero (or stay at whatever the +distance was prior to you de-authorizing the watch face). + +To authenticate and communicate with Google Fit, you must create a project in the Google Developers +Console, activate the Fitness API, create an OAuth 2.0 client ID, and register the public +certificate from your signed APK.
