Connect with Wi-Fi
Your watch can automatically connect to saved Wi-Fi networks when it loses the Bluetooth connection with your Android phone (not available for Apple iPhone). When your phone and watch are both connected to Wi-Fi, you can get notifications and use voice search on your watch throughout your home and work when your phone is out of Bluetooth range.
To connect your watch to Wi-Fi:
- Turn on Cloud sync. On your phone, open the Android Wear
app, then touch
. Touch Privacy & personal data > Cloud sync, then switch it On. - Turn Wi-Fi on. On your watch, go to Settings. Touch Wi-Fi settings. If Wi-Fi is set to OFF, touch to turn it to Automatic.
NoteIf you don't see Wi-Fi settings on your watch, check that your watch software is
updated.
Limitations:
- When your watch uses Wi-Fi, the “Open on phone” feature is disabled.
- If Wi-Fi is using a lot of your watch battery, Wi-Fi may turn off automatically, and you’ll see a notification. Wi-Fi will automatically turn on again when the watch is recharged.
