Playing videos in WatchKit app

Question

I\'ve read some posts, but I don\'t find the answer I need: is it possible to play a video file or a video from a URL in a WatchKit app?

Answer 1

The current version of WatchOS, 2.0, Does allow playback of videos but only local. See the WKInterfaceMovie class reference : https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/watchos/documentation/WatchKit/Reference/WKInterfaceMovie_class/index.html#//apple_ref/occ/cl/WKInterfaceMovie
