Now, with just a tap, your watch face can change its design, reveal more information, or even launch a specific app.” Interactive watch faces will make android wear more advanced and user will be able to get information quickly without opening apps. Right now there are three interactive watch faces available as announced in official blog-post.

Together:

It lets you pair up your watch with someone else’s and share things like photos and emoji.

Google Translate:

This update will also bring Google Translate functionality to android wear. It is designed to enable bilingual conversations. How it works?  Just speak into your watch and then turn it towards the other person, as the watch changes direction, it'll switch translation over to that person's language. Turn the watch again when they respond and you will see translation in your language. Translate will automatically recognize which two languages are being spoken. Right now it can only translate 44 out of 90 languages supported on Translate. 

This Android wear 1.3 update will come out over the next few weeks.
