Replies sent from your smartwatch are not going through
Replies need either a Bluetooth connection to your phone or WiFi on the watch. If the watch can't reach your phone and isn't on WiFi, replies won't send. Check that Bluetooth is on and your phone is within range — if it is, turn Bluetooth off and back on.
Your watch sends replies through your phone when they're connected by Bluetooth. If your phone is too far away and your watch isn't on WiFi, the message has nowhere to go. Keeping your phone and watch within Bluetooth range fixes most sending problems. If they're close and it's still not working, restarting Bluetooth on the watch resets the connection.

Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Thinking Bluetooth is on when it's actually turned off — check twice
- Staying in another room expecting the watch to send replies without WiFi on the watch
- Not realizing that taking your phone away disables watch messaging unless the watch is on WiFi
Signs you need professional help
- Phone and watch are close, Bluetooth is on, and replies still won't send
- Watch is on WiFi but replies still won't go through
- You can't see your phone in the watch Bluetooth list at all
