Android is probably the only platform right now where apps can come together to create a “mash-up” of sorts for your smartphone and smartwatch. A new watchface for Android Wear integrates five apps to showcase Muzei’s live wallpaper capabilities, FORM’s integration for both smartwatch and smartphones, and the beauty of HD Landscapes Art Source. This is actually the custom watchface for the FORM 2014 conference to be hosted by Google.

Muzei is one of the more popular live wallpaper apps in the market today, and one of their art sources is Muzei HD Landscapes. From the source, it is then passed on to the Muzei Live Wallpaper smartphone app, which then sends a downscaled version to the Muzei smartwatch app through Bluetooth. The Muzei watch app has a content provider that lets other apps use the artwork as well. It is this provider that is able to get the artwork on to the FORM watch face app. For your smartphone, there is the FORM watch face configuration app. It is from there that you’ll be able to change the watch face since there is no icon for FORM on the app launcher.

Because of these five apps, you’ll be able to have a constantly-updating wallpaper on both your smartphone and your Android Wear smartwatch. You will also be able to use the FORM watch face on top of the Muzei wallpaper, giving your smartwatch a more dynamic look.

You can download the FORM Watch Face app from the Google Play Store for free. If you still don’t have the Muzei Live Wallpaper app, you can also get it for free.
