small inconsistency with CIQ apps

_psx_

- activity start

- there are CIQ dfs in activity page

- back to watch face - it's imposible to show CIQ wf, ok (only one ciq app)

- go to widget and I can see CIQ widget (glance view) but I can't enter to full view even it is almost the same code (in my example, difference is minimal drawing in smaller area)

So why is this limit with CIQ wf, full view and probably app since it can run like in glance view?

  • This has been the case on many devices for a long time.  If you have a CIQ DF, there's not enough memory for a CIQ WF.  Glances are limited in memory, but there may not be enough memory to open them in full screen.

    It's all about the memory available to CIQ.

    But CIQ doesn't know that your widget's full view will use the same amount of memory as your glance view, even if you know that. It likely has to work with the worst case - for example, for 945, the worst case memory usage for a widget's glance view is 32K, but the worst case for the same widget's full view is 1 MB.

    I don't think the system can just look at the size of the code, because it has no way of knowing how much memory that code will use at runtime.

    If I had to guess, whenever CIQ launches any kind of app, it probably has to allocate the maximum amount of memory possible (e.g. 1 MB for widget on 945.)
