Android Wear 2.0 starts rolling out for AT&T's LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition

Great news for LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition owners who purchase their smartwatches through AT&T, as the carrier has just announced Android Wear 2.0 is now being pushed to the wearable device.

AT&T's LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition is the last version of the smartwatch received this update after Verizon released it about a month ago. Not to mention the first generation model got Android Wear 2.0 back in April.

It's been almost seven months since Google launched Android Wear 2.0, but it looks like carriers have been delaying the release of the update for quite a long time.

Anyway, those of you who are still using LG's smartwatch should check for a new update. According to AT&T, the Android Wear 2.0 update weighs in at 345MB, so make sure you have enough storage before attempting to download the file.

Android Wear 2.0 brings a new user interface, watch face with complications, standalone apps, new input methods, Google Fit platform, as well as Google Assistant. On top of that, LG added Google's security updates to make the smartwatch more secure.
