title: Wear OS app communicates with phone in debug only
body: <p>I have a Wear OS and phone application that communicate with eachover fine when run through android studio on debug mode with the phone connected to the watch via bluetooth. </p>
  
  <p>However, for testing purposes and distribution I have published the Wear OS application via the Google Play Console as an internal test and the phone app simply via sharing the .apk via google drive. </p>
  
  <p>When I launch the internal test published Wear OS application and install the shared .apk from google drive the phone and watch do not communicate with eachover. </p>
  
  <p>Is there something I am missing here? Is there perhaps an easier way to distribute the watch and phone app together to test?</p>
