HOW DO I PAIR MY SMARTWATCH TO
MY PHONE?
To pair your smartwatch, follow these steps:
iOS
•
In the Android Wear App on your phone, you’ll
see a list of nearby devices. You can check the
name of your watch on its screen.
•
Before you start, ensure your watch is charging.
•
Select language, then scroll down to watch identity.
•
On your phone, touch your watch’s name.
On your watch, you’ll see a pairing code.
•
On your phone, you should see the same pairing
code shown on your watch. Then, touch Pair.
You’ll see a confirmation message once your
watch is paired. This can take a few minutes.
•
On your phone, follow the onscreen instructions
to turn on watch notifications, location, and
calendar access.
•
To use Google Assistant and access the Play
Store, a Google account must be added to your
watch. This can be done during the initial setup
or at any time through the Android Wear app.
If you are pairing your watch after a factory reset,
you’ll need to open the Android Wear App on your
phone. Then, touch the menu icon, select Pair With
New Watch, and continue with the steps above.
Note: Your watch may automatically install an update
and restart after it’s paired with your phone. If it begins
downloading an update, keep the phone near your
watch and ensure your watch stays charging until the
update is finished.
Note: The Android Wear app must remain open on
your phone to ensure connectivity to your watch. If you
close the app on your phone you will lose connection
to your watch.

WHY CAN’T I PAIR MY SMARTWATCH TO
MY PHONE?
Ensure that your smartwatch is powered on and
Bluetooth is enabled on your phone. Launch the
Android Wear App and follow the on-screen
instructions for pairing your watch. If it fails to connect,
check the Bluetooth menu on your phone. If you see the
smartwatch in the device list, remove it. Relaunch the
Android Wear App and repeat the pairing process.
