Just wrote an Android Wear app to remote control *and view* your cell phone camera live. I have a series of other hacks I plan to do in the near future but here's a start. :) Open source too so hope people can help contribute and make it better! Welcome feedback, pull requests, suggestions.

I've made a bunch of updates to Wear Camera Remote since the first release now. I've added basic support for turning the flash on/off and switching between front/rear camera. But I'm doing it differently than all those paid apps (e.g. Pixtocam) in that I want the UI to blend in well with Google's UI. Also small buttons on a smartwatch is awful to use.

More features to come in the future when I get time, stay tuned. Or if someone wants to help extend this vision, it *is* an open source GPL project. :)

It's this for nexus devices only or all phones? It doesn't seem to work on my LG G3.
