If you are an entrepreneur or a top manager of a company and you want your business to grow, sometimes you have to put in the effort to be available around the clock and pay attention to anything that happens. Therefore, it is essential that you always have a Smartwatch with you. You just need to connect your Smartwatch with your Smartphone and voilà. You can have your company at your fingertips constantly.
Tutorial to connect your Smartphone or iPhone with your Smartwatch or Apple Watch
Android
Follow these steps to connect your Smartphone with your Smartwatch:
Tip: Have a QR Scan Application installed in your smartphone.
– The first thing you should do is have your Smartwach battery fully charged. – Next, make sure you are in a place with a WiFi connection and have Bluetooth on both devices activated. – Open the QR code reader application on your phone. Go to the watch and access the menu, the QR Code (Quick Response) option. With your phone, scan that code, open the link and download the application. This will be a BT Notification.
– Once you have installed the application, go to Settings, Accessibility and activate Bluetooth Notifications and choose what type of notifications you want to receive.
Warning: Do not kill the Bluetooth Notify Service app when you clear the memory of apps running in the background. This must always be running to ensure the correct functioning of the Smartwatch.
– On the phone, in Bluetooth connections, click on the name of the Smartwatch device. A success message should appear saying that the synchronization was successful. – If you do it from the Smartwatch, go to Bluetooth settings and press Search to find nearby devices. Select the phone name and a success message will appear.
Tip: When you are making the connection, place both devices as close as possible.
iOS
In this case, the ideal, as always, is to use original Apple products to link them. It is known that Apple, of course, tries to ensure that its products are used with original accessories from the same brand. The same thing happens with the connection between products. Do you want a simple example? Try downloading photos from an iPhone to a Windows computer.
So, to connect your iPhone to your Apple Watch, follow these steps: Before you begin, make sure you have the latest version of the software on your iPhone.
Tip:
- If you have an iPhone 6 or later, the appropriate Apple Watch for you will be Series 3 or later.
- If, on the other hand, you have an iPhone 5s or later, then the Apple Watch Series 3 or earlier is the one for you.
– Like Android, the first thing you should do is connect both devices to Bluetooth and the internet via WiFi.
– Place both devices as close as possible to each other and wait until a message appears on your iPhone asking you to use your phone to set up your watch.
Warning: it is important that you have your Apple Watch App installed on your iPhone.
– If this message does not appear, then open the app to manually start the link between the devices and follow the instructions. It will ask you to place the iPhone camera on the Apple Watch screen, just like you do when scanning QR codes. If it does not capture, click on “Link manually” and then follow the steps.
Is this your first Apple Watch? Tap Settings. Is it a new one? Then tap on Backup and then accept the terms and conditions. If you’re signed in with your Apple ID on your phone from Settings, you’ll likely be asked for your Apple ID password. If not, you can do it later. It is important that you do this so that the synchronization is done correctly, as well as logging into your iCloud.
Note: Your phone may automatically ask you to enable the Activation Lock feature if Find My iPhone is not activated. If, on the other hand, you directly see the Activation Lock screen, then it means that your Apple Watch is already connected.
– From here, you can select all the options that you want to access from your Apple Watch, that are most useful to your needs (apps; actions such as calls, location, create a code to protect your data, etc.).
– Once you finish selecting everything you want, you will have to wait for the synchronization to take place and that’s it! You can start using your Apple Watch!
Tip: Do you have a Smartwatch instead of an Apple Watch? Download the app Wear OS by Google in your iPhone to be able to make the connection. The app will guide you completely so that you can do it.
You have no excuse now. Take your company with you in the most comfortable way and take care of your affairs wherever you are. Just worry about not neglecting other aspects of your life. Your family, your friends and your health are also important. Don’t neglect them. They are an important part of you to have a successful business.
