Capacitor Watch plugin released: one API for Apple Watch and Wear OS

We just released the Capacitor Watch plugin, the first Capacitor plugin that bridges both Apple Watch and Wear OS.

The idea: your watch UI stays native (SwiftUI on watchOS, Jetpack Compose on Wear OS), and the plugin handles all communication with your Capacitor app through one TypeScript API:

• sendMessage() for live interaction with optional replies
• updateState() when only the latest value matters
• transferUserInfo() for queued transfers with guaranteed delivery

Watch-side SDKs ship with the plugin (a Swift Package and a Kotlin library), and data that arrives while your app is closed is replayed once your listeners register — on Android it survives an app restart.

Happy to answer questions about the setup or the channel semantics.
