Auto Reconnect?

[matt3166]

I have Android auto and when I plug my phone in it disconnects the Bluetooth from the watch. But it never reconnects after leaving the car unless I go in and do it manually.
Anyway to fix this?

Haven't tried with Android Auto. But if I walk to far from phone I get a message it was disconnected and when walk back it auto connects. Not sure why would not do the same.

What phone do you have? My S8 allows me to stay connected to the phone with Android Auto. No issues

I have the Note 9

Maybe it's a settings issue? Call Samsung

I have the Note 9 and Galaxy Watch. No issues with connecting to my car and Android Auto. the only thing it doesn't do is text notifications don't go to watch while connected to car.

I have exactly the same problem as you @matt3166. I'm using the Galaxy Watch with the Note 9. Previously I had this issue with the Galaxy S9+ and Gear S3.

The solution is to connect to your car's bluetooth prior to plugging in your phone. Weird, I know. But it should work.

Let me know if it does or doesn't. This has been an annoying problem for me since I started using Android Auto, and I'd like to get more data points.
