New app to turn your smartwatch into a mouse for your computer or phone
Of all the weird apps and gadgets unveiled at CES 2024, WowMouse is likely to be one of the most eye-catching options. And the best part is that it’s available right now. If you want to learn more about this awesome app that turns your Wear OS smartwatch into a Bluetooth mouse, read on.
This new app is one of the most eye-catching ideas heard at CES 2024. Basically, it’s an app that lets you turn your Wear OS smartwatch into a Bluetooth mouse, but maybe not in the way you’d imagine. WowMouse uses your smartwatch’s sensors to turn it into an alien mouse.
If this is the first time you’ve heard the term, let’s be a little clearer about the definition of a space mouse. Imagine being able to move your hand in the air, i.e. in 3D, to navigate your devices. That’s how the WowMouse app on your Wear OS smartwatch works. By moving your hand in the air in front of you, you can move the cursor around your devices’ screen and with specific movements you can tap, zoom, scroll, etc.
Not all Wear OS smartwatches will be able to get this feature at the moment. For example, the first and second generation Pixel watches are not compatible. But if you have a slightly more advanced watch like the Galaxy Watch 6, you’re good to go.
It may seem like the whole idea is very misleading and would be difficult to control, but thanks to the presentation shared at CES 2024, we could see that this app delivers very good results. And the best part is that you can try it yourself, use the download button above to download the WowMouse app and use it right away.
Once you get some practice, gestures like air-pressing to tap and moving in space to scroll will become more natural to you. So, what are you waiting for to try out WowMouse on your Wear OS smartwatch?
