One way is to develop a web interface using our [WebDev Module](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC79/WebDev+Module), and access the project using a web browser on the smart watch. Note that not all smart watches may have a web browser available.

Another way would be to develop a native app for the watch which can send HTTP requests to Ignition, again configuring the backed scripts using the WebDev module.

Viktor,

The Apple Watch OS does not implement a Java Runtime, so there is no possible way for you to run an Ignition project on it.  
What @adam.morales was referring to was to have either:  
1- A web browser request data from Ignition via a REST endpoint (using Ignition’s WEBDEV module)  
2- Build a native Apple Watch OS app that would request data from Ignition (again, via Ignition’s WEBDEV module)

Cheers,

Oscar.
