'Cannot run emulator for Wear OS on Apple M1

I want to start an emulator with Wear OS on my MacBook Pro with M1 chip. When I create a new device and choose WearOS, I see no system image in the "Recommended" tab. However, when I select the "Other Images" tab, I can see this list:

List of system images

None of the images I chose in the list worked, I always get the message "The emulator process for AVD ... terminated." Is this still not supported? Thanks a lot.



Solution 1:[1]

From the #wear-compose slack channel

Not until https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/208843522 is fixed

It is actively being worked on, we hope to have an M1 Wear 3.0 Emulator soon, but no specific dates yet.

Solution 2:[2]

Just install the latest Android Studio Version. Wear OS Emulator is working now on M1 Macs with the latest Android Studio Bumblebee.
