How to connect Galaxy watch with Samsung mobile phones?

Last Update date : May 13. 2024

Connecting the Watch to a smartphone via Bluetooth involves several steps on both devices. First, let's look at the steps required on the Galaxy Watch:

 

Step 1: Turn on the Watch.

Step 2: Select a language to use by scrolling through the options using the watch's buttons and tapping on OK when you've chosen the right one.

Step 3: Choose a country or region by following the same process as step 2, and then tap Restart. This will cause the Watch to turn off momentarily and reboot.

 

Now, let's move on to the mobile device (smartphone) side:

 

Step 4: Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone. This allows your phone to detect nearby Bluetooth devices like the Galaxy Watch.

Step 5: Open the Galaxy Wearable app on your smartphone. If you haven't installed it yet, download it from your app store. It's essential to have the latest version of this app for proper connectivity.

Step 6: Within the app, tap on Start to begin the pairing process.

Step 7: On the screen, you'll see a list of available devices. Select your Galaxy Watch from this list. If you can't find it, tap 'mine's not here,' and follow the prompts to manually search for the Watch.

Step 8: Follow the on-screen instructions to finalize the connection between your smartphone and the Galaxy Watch.

  • Connection methods and screens may vary depending on your Mobile Device and software version.
  • The Galaxy Watch is smaller than normal mobile devices so the network quality may be lower, especially in areas with weak signals or poor reception. When using your Galaxy Watch without connecting to a Mobile Device and a Bluetooth connection is unavailable, your cellular network or Internet connection may be poor or become disconnected.
  • When you connect your Galaxy Watch to a Mobile Device for the first time after resetting it, the Galaxy Watch’s battery may drain more quickly while syncing data, such as contacts.
  • Supported Mobile Devices and features may vary depending on your region, service provider, and device manufacturer.

When you connect the Watch to a new smartphone, the Watch will reset all personal information. When the prompt appears before connecting your Watch to a new smartphone, tap on Back up data to securely back up the stored data.

 

1.    Navigate to apps screen and tap on Settings.

2.    Tap on General

3.    Watch is connecting

4.    Tap on Continue.

After a reset, it will automatically enter Bluetooth pairing mode.

5.    On your new smartphone, launch the Galaxy Wearable app to connect to your Watch.

Note: If the smartphone you want to connect to is already connected to another device, launch the Galaxy Wearable app on your smartphone and tap on Menu → Add new device to connect with a new device.

Your Watch and smartphone are connected via Bluetooth. You can sync your smartphone to your Watch when both devices are remotely connected to each other, even though a Bluetooth connection is not available.

The Remote connection uses your mobile network or Wi-Fi.

1. Navigate to apps and tap on Gear Wearable.
