Can connect Galaxy Watch to 2 phones?

[Android Central Question]

Hi, I recently bought a Galaxy watch. However, because I use a Mac for work and an iphone I dont have the opportunity to change my whole set to fit it better to the watch, obviously. So I paired the watch to iOS, works well. The problem is I cant use Samsung Pay, because this feature is only available for Android app, not iOS app. So I connected the phone to my wife's Huawei, after that all the settings are go back to factory "like". After set up again I connected via Bluetooth to iPhone, and watch resets itself again. Is it possible to enable Samsung Pay on android phone and connect watch to iPhone at the same time?
Thank you in advance for the help

Hi All,

Thank you very much, now I am a registered member. Actaully I do not want to connect 2 BT devices to Watch simultaneously. What I want : the possibility to pay with my watch (I dont want to always bring the brick size phone with myself) and the connection to my corporate phone (which is unfortunately an iphone, regardless I like the OS itself). So my idea is was that to download the app on my wife's android phone (regarding samsung official the iOS app not support Samsung pay), connect the watch to it, set up Samsung Pay, and after the function live I disconnect from android phone and connect it to iphone, but unfortunately the watch resets itself. So is it possible somehow to set up Samsung Pay, then pair the watch with an iphone?

Disable Bluetooth on the iPhone and the watch should connect to the Android. Pay, then re-enable Bluetooth on the iPhone.

This^^^. I've tried and it's so irritating that I can't connect to more than one.

There is eSIM in the galaxy watch, so I can use my watch without the phone. The problem is that I need the contacts from the iphone (so I have to synchronize), but if I synchronize to the Android phone to enable NFC functions the former synchronization erased. Its not possible to synchronize the watch with 2 phones :-(

Maybe it will be possible when Tizen has its own version of Bluetooth 5.0
