    Will galaxy watch charge on the back of S10?

    The way my S9 behaves, I would be more likely to need to charge the phone from my watch!

    Why my galaxy watch automatic play Spotify music after I end my phone call??

    I have switched to the galaxy s9 from iphone. This was never a problem with the iphone as it didn't allow calls to be piped through to the watch. It's a crazy problem and desperately annoying. For now I have uninstalled spotify and will try a reload, but it's surprising that samsung/spotify...

If the watch and phone aren't talking to each other then some of the titles are greyed out. Go to...

    Can I use iPhone X to connect to Galaxy Watch?

    I have managed to set up my watch with my iPhone 8 plus, but the additional bluetooth connection it creates to do this makes everything else fall over. I will be upgrading the phone in Sept and will most likely move away from apple and get a samsung smart phone. I'm more impressed with their...

    bluetooth connection dropping, galaxy watch/iphone

    I had the same problem with iPhone 8plus and the 42mm watch. I found that the problem came from when I tried to link the watch and the phone for phone calls, which seems to add a second bluetooth connection. The first is (548F) LE and the one to allow the phone to route through the watch is...
