( This app is run in a service. Android treats services as background processes. Android has a limitation on the number of background processes that can be run simultaneously. When this limit is exceeded, the Android system stops the least recent used process. This can happen even if the SmartWatch app is currently showing on the display, since the Android system is not aware of this. )

This app was tested with SmartWatch (MN2), SmartWatch2 SW2 emulator and DSC-QX10.

DSC-QX100 or other Camera Remote API supported camera may work with this app, but this app is not tested on these camera.
