To create a curved layout for scrollable items in your wearable app check below link:

https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/ui/lists.html#creating

use

val layoutManager = CurvedChildLayoutManager(this) recyclerView.layoutManager = layoutManager

PS: as for topic question, you dont need app:layout_box just use android:scrollbars="vertical" on your WearableRecyclerView

It will show default scroll bar right?.How can i create dotted scrollbar with different color using that? – Improvisator

use custom scroll bar. Define these properties in listview android:scrollbarThumbVertical android:scrollbarTrackVertical – Moulder

Do u mean,Recycler List View with Circular Scrollbar? – Improvisator

CurvedChildLayoutManager is deprecated now – Improvisator

Did you try WearableRecyclerView ? – Moulder

I think you have to create a scrollbar layout. write your own logic to indicate scroll area based on current list position. – Moulder
