any way to pair it with two devices? - LG G Watch

Hi guys.
I know the G watch cannot be paired with two devices via bluetooth. I know I have to factory reset it in order to connect to another device.
Is there a workaround to be able to pair it with two devices? (It's not necessary to be conncted to both at the same time)
I prefer to have it connected to my tablet while I am home and to my phone while I am in the car.
Thanks!

I would like to know this as well. I would much prefer to build new watch faces on my tablet or build watch faces for my wife's LG G watch on my device.

As far as I know that's one of the main limitations of the Android Wear platform so you are bind to one device

Not only for Wear I think it is same for all watches :
- Samsung Tizen -> watch reset if you connect another phone
- Sony SW2 -> Watch reset (normal apps are on phone and not on watch)

All android watches are based on Android Wear

[Q] LG G Watch - communication question

Hi guys, I wonder if I could get an answer to something that I can't seem to figure out.
I currently have an HTC One M8, which when I get into my car, automatically pairs to the car's Bluetooth system & allows me to use voice control to dial, and also play music through the car stereo (also via Bluetooth).
What I can't figure out, is if I were to buy a smartwatch (The LG is what i'm looking at), then I assume that the watch connects to the phone using Bluetooth? If that is the case, then what happens, if my phone & watch are currently paired together when I get into my car?
I'm under the impression that Bluetooth only was between 2 devices? If so, would I need to manually disconnect the phone from the watch and then manually connect it to the car? Or would the phone automatically drop the watch connection when it saw the in-car connection available? Or can the phone somehow remain connected to both Bluetooth devices at the same time?
I can't be the only person that might have in-car Bluetooth that's also thinking about/already owns a smartwatch?
Maybe I'm just over-thinking it?
Thanks in advance for any information.

I have the Omate Truesmart. I keep it paired to my Note3, and also use LG Tone bt headphones or with my car radio JVC Kameleon. The difference is when you click on the settings icon for the connected device in the BT menu on the phone. It will list the headphones/car radio as phone and media audio and allows me to play music through them or use as bluetooth connection for calls, and skip tracks and play pause. For the watch it lists the connection type as internet use, and I can use the watch to view and skip tracks, view/answer/dismiss calls, reply to notifications. I am guessing the android wear devices will probably work the same way.

Many thanks for the reply.
So, for all intents & purposes, I can, in real terms, keep the phone connected to both the watch & the in-car audio at the same time?

Thanks very much for your responses guys. I ended up ordering the Samsung instead of the LG in the end (Which is odd, as I dislike their phones).
I have a Galaxy Gear and keep it connected to my phone all the time as well as my LG Tone+ , I haven't experienced any issues with the two. I'm assuming that the Android Wear stuff will work similarly if not better.
Good question

It should work...don't connect with Bluetooth first. Reset watch and unpair from phone. Open up android wear app and try to connect from there. I use a Huawei Watch daily and it works perfectly.

Can not connect my Android Wear clock

I have a Yota3 upgraded to 3+ and a Sony Smartwatch 3.
The smartwatch was connected with my old Yota2. I can not connect the smatwatch with my new Yota3+.
I have resetted the smartwatch several times and deinstalled Wear and reinstalled it.
Bluetooth is working, I have connected a speaker without problems.
When I try to connect the pairing code is shown on the Yota3+ but not on the smartwatch.
Have somebody connected a Android Wear watch with the Yota3+?
Thanks

I have a Yota 3+ connected to a Huawey Watch 2 watch. Everything works well. Did you remember to turn off the clock in the Wear OS settings on your Yota 2?
Yes, I disconnected the watch from Yota2.
With two other old smartphones I can connect the watch without problems ....:crying:
Solution
How I solved it.....
Start pairing on my old Yota2 and on my new Yota3+ at the same time.
Both mobiles displayed a (different) pairing code.
The watch displayed the pairing code of the old Yota2.
I confirmed the (different) pairing codes on the watch and the Yota3+.... and the watch paired with the Yota3+!
DONE.
Real Solution ....
How I solved it, part 2.
The real problem was .... empty device name under blutooth setting ..... :silly:

Amazfit GTR 47mm pairing issue.

Hey guys,
I have purchased amazfit gtr 47mm and tried to pair it with my android device (ASUS zenfone max pro m2) running android 9. It tries to connect to it but then try again screen comes up. Then i searched the internet for it and found out that firmware is not supported in 8.1+ android so I connect it with the device running android 6 (Motorola G3) and it connects to it successfully and then I updated the firmware of the watch to the latest version.
Then I unpair the watch from the MOTO device and tried pairing it with mine but it still not able to connect with my device. Them i tried connecting it with the same MOTO device then again it is not able to connect to it.
Please help me connect this watch.

It should pair with yous Asus device no problem. I am using mine with a zuk phone running Android 10 and have no problems pairing.
Make sure to tap on the pairing notification on the watch when trying to pair.
If you can get it paired with one device just download the app on the other device and log in. No need to unpair. Switch off whatever device you don't want to use the watch with and it will work fine with your other device.
By the way if you are going to be using the watch for sports tracking using GPS I'd advise you to send the watch back as soon as possible as the GPS is practically useless on this watch

I have done all the things that you have mentioned already. And i am facing this issue for the third time as I have ordered this watch for the third time. But still finding no luck pairing it with my own device.
I have tried pairing my device with other amazfit watched like Amazfit Bip it connects seamlessly. I am just having the problem pairing GTR with my device.

i try unistall and install app restart watch factory reset, restart phone but nothing
on huawei p20 and huawei P smart all works perfect, but on samsung not
Turn on GPS
This may sound silly, but that worked for me.
Turn on the GPS in your phone when trying to pair with GTR.
It worked for me.
