Forwarding Calls to Gear S
If you turn on Call forwarding, when Gear S is
disconnected from your smartphone, calls to the
smartphone are automatically forwarded to the
Gear S. You can turn on Call forwarding when
you pair your Gear S with a smartphone, in the
Gear S Settings, or in Settings of the Samsung
Gear app on the smartphone.
When call forwarding is active:
•
Your smartphone will ring a few times for
an incoming call, and then the call will be
forwarded to your Gear S.
•
If you do not answer the call on your Gear S,
the caller may leave a voicemail that you can
listen to on your Gear S.
To use call forwarding, you must sign in to
your Samsung account, and the Use Remote
connection setting must be enabled on the
Samsung Gear app on the smartphone (this is
enabled by default).
Call forwarding continues until your Gear S and
smartphone are connected again, via Bluetooth
or remote connection.
Note
: Depending on your service
provider, call forwarding may require a
separate subscription, and may result in
additional charges.
If you uninstall the Samsung Gear app
while call forwarding is active, you will
need to turn off call forwarding in the
smartphone’s Call settings.
