Leaf Notification for Android and Android Wear

9/21/14

I only use Nissan's Leaf app for checking the battery level and turning on the AC. But their app is a little slow/clunky, and provides no contextual notifications. I wanted something quick and out of the way, and ideally integrated with Wear.

As such, here's what I put together with a little reverse engineering. A simple application that silently updates the car status and provides notification actions.

The app communicates directly between the phone and Nissan's servers, which reduces the risk of data being intercepted, especially compared to apps that use a middle-man server. In addition, it's completely open source.

Enjoy!
