How do I connect the smartwatch to Wi-Fi?
If your watch is paired with an Android phone and has Wi-Fi, your watch can automatically
connect to saved Wi-Fi networks when it loses the Bluetooth connection with your phone. This
lets your watch and phone stay synced at any distance over the Internet. That way, you can get
notifications and use voice search on your watch throughout your home and work even when you
leave your phone in a different room.
If your watch screen is dim, touch the screen to wake up the watch.
Swipe down from the top of the screen.
Swipe from right to left until you see Settings, then touch it.
Touch Wi-Fi Settings.
If Wi-Fi is set to Off, touch to turn it to Automatic. If it is set to Automatic, touch to turn
it off.
If Wi-Fi is set to Automatic, your watch will automatically connect to any known,
available network when your watch does not have a Bluetooth connection to your phone.
