You'll need a galaxy watch for of course, and an Android phone. Now, the process is exactly the same, whether or not you have the galaxy watch for classic with this addict, rotating bezel or the regular galaxy watch for before we get started, take a moment to subscribe to the channel for lots more. How to videos and one final [00:00:30] warning. The galaxy watch for is only compatible with Android, not the iPhone, like older generations of the galaxy watch. So if you do have an iPhone, sorry, I hope that you knew that before that you bought the galaxy watch for, because it won't work. Okay. Let's get into the process of pairing it with a Samsung galaxy phone.
Speaker 1: First up first, you'll wanna make sure that your Samsung account is already logged in on the phone. Then download the galaxy wearable app. You can get this from either the play store or [00:01:00] the galaxy store, then make sure Bluetooth is turned on by going to the settings menu on your phone and selecting Bluetooth. The watch should have some charge in it if you've just pulled it out of the box, but if it needs some extra juice, just leave it on the charger a little while. Once it's topped up, turn it on by pressing and holding this top button. Open up the galaxy wearable app and press start. You can grant location access. If you like. Now, if you already got the galaxy wearable [00:01:30] app and you have another device connected, you'll just need to tap the three lines on the top left and select add new device.
Speaker 1: Now bring your watch nearby to the phone and you should see it appear on the list. Tap it, then confirm the code on the watch matches the one on the phone. Now the watch is paired, but it will probably still need to download a software update or some extra plugins and ask you to review the terms and conditions for both the watch and for Google. You'll probably also get a series of prompts, [00:02:00] asking you to give permission for the watch to access your text calls, text messages, and so on. Make sure to select yes to these otherwise you won't be able to get any notifications on your wrist. The next step is you'll want to sign in or link the Google account. That's already on your phone. Now this is optional, but recommended. If you do use a lot of Google services along the way, you might also see a prompt asking you to restore from a backup.
Speaker 1: But if this is your first Samsung on galaxy watch, you probably won't [00:02:30] see that just select next or skip and wait for the mesmerizing animation. And you are all set. Now, if you bought the LTE or cellular version of the galaxy, watch four, you will also see a prompt asking the you to set it up with your carrier. I am a chiefs skate and only shelled out for the Bluetooth and wifi version. So I can't show you that, but just be aware that step is also necessary. If you wanna be able to take calls and get messages on your watch when you are away from your phone, okay, [00:03:00] those are the steps for a Samsung galaxy phone. Let's walk through the steps for a regular Android phone. In this situation I'm using the pixel for a, the steps are pretty similar. You'll still need to download the galaxy wearable app from the play store, except during the process.
Speaker 1: It might also push you back out to the store to install certain plugins for the watch. It might also ask you to sign into your Samsung account. Now this step is optional, but it will help if you wanna do things like [00:03:30] find the watch on a map. If you lose it or use Samsung apps like Samsung pay this bezel is so sad as fine. Okay? You've decided you wanna unpair the watch, go into your Bluetooth settings and find the listing for the galaxy watch, tap, forget, and then forget device. If you're on a Samsung galaxy phone, this will show up as unpair. Just tap that instead. Now, if you're selling or giving away the watch, you'll definitely want to wipe all of your personal data from it. [00:04:00] So to do this swipe down from the watch face itself and find the settings cog scroll down to general, and then here is where you can decide to make a backup, or you can just reset it. So that's it. I hope this video helped you get to know your watch a little bit better. If you wanna find out more details on things like latest pricing, tips and tricks.
