The Samsung Galaxy Watch is a great device for those who want a smart watch that can do more than just tell time. However, some users have reported that their watch is not showing phone calls. This can be a frustrating issue, as it means that you may miss important calls. In this blog post, we will take a look at some of the possible reasons why your watch may not be showing phone calls, and how you can fix the problem.

Why Samsung Watch Not Showing Phone Calls?

If you’re using a Samsung Galaxy Watch and you’re not receiving notifications for incoming phone calls, there are a few possible reasons why this might be happening.

First, make sure that the watch is properly connected to your phone. If the watch is not connected to your phone, it will not receive notifications for incoming calls. To check if the watch is connected, open the Galaxy Wear app on your phone and look for the “Connected” status. If it says “Disconnected,” you’ll need to reconnect the watch.

Next, make sure that notifications for incoming phone calls are enabled on the watch. To check if this is enabled, open the Galaxy Wear app on your phone and go to the “Notifications” tab. Make sure that the “Phone calls” toggle is turned on.

If notifications for incoming phone calls are enabled and the watch is still not receiving them, the issue may be with the phone. Make sure that notifications for incoming calls are enabled on the phone and that the phone is not in Do Not Disturb mode.

If the issue is still not resolved, try restarting the watch and the phone. If the problem persists, you may need to reset the watch. To reset the watch, open the Galaxy Wear app on your phone and go to the “Settings” tab. Select “Reset” and follow the prompts to reset the watch.

If you’ve tried all of these steps and the watch is still not receiving notifications for incoming phone calls, it’s possible that the watch is defective and you’ll need to contact Samsung support for further assistance.

Have You Tried Restarting Your Watch And Phone?

  • Double-check to make sure your watch is fully charged
  • restart both your watch and phone
  • If you have an Android phone, make sure you have granted all the necessary permissions
  • Update your Wear OS app to the latest version
  • Uninstall and reinstall the Wear OS app

Have You Checked If The Watch Is Paired With Your Phone Correctly?

Connection problems with Wear OS devices are usually caused by a faulty Bluetooth connection.

First, check if your watch is properly paired with your phone. To do this, open the Wear OS app on your phone and tap the three-dot icon in the top right corner. Then select Settings > Connections > Bluetooth.

If your watch is not paired, try restarting both your watch and your phone. Then open the Wear OS app on your phone and follow the instructions to pair your watch.

If your watch is still not pairing, try updating the Wear OS app on your phone. To do this, open the Google Play Store and search for “Wear OS” or “Android Wear”. Then tap the Update button next to the Wear OS app.

If your watch is still not pairing, try factory resetting your watch. To do this, open the Settings app on your watch and tap the three-dot icon in the top right corner. Then select Settings > System > Reset.

If your watch is still not pairing, contact the manufacturer of your watch for further assistance.

By following these steps, you should be able to fix the connection problems with your Wear OS device.

Have You Checked The Watch’s Settings To Ensure It Is Set To Receive Phone Calls?

If your watch is not set to receive phone calls, you will not be able to answer or decline any incoming calls. Check the settings of your watch to ensure that it is set to receive phone calls. If it is not, you will need to adjust the settings.

To do this, you will need to access the settings menu on your watch. The location of the settings menu will vary depending on the brand and model of your watch. Once you have accessed the settings menu, look for the option to receive phone calls. This option may be labeled as “phone call,” “cellular data,” or something similar. Make sure this option is turned on or enabled.

If you are still having trouble receiving phone calls on your watch, there may be an issue with your phone’s settings. Check the settings on your phone to ensure that it is set to send phone calls to your watch. If it is not, you will need to adjust the settings on your phone.

Have You Tried Unpairing And Re Pairing The Watch?

If you’re having trouble with your Apple Watch, the first thing you should try is unpairing and re-pairing it. To unpair your watch, open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap the My Watch tab. Then, tap the settings icon (the gear icon) and select Unpair Apple Watch. Follow the prompts to unpair your watch.

Once your watch is unpaired, you can try re-pairing it. To do this, open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap the My Watch tab. Then, tap the Add Apple Watch button and follow the prompts to pair your watch.

If you’re still having trouble after trying these steps, you may need to try a factory reset. To do this, open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap the My Watch tab. Then, tap the settings icon (the gear icon) and select Reset. Follow the prompts to reset your watch.

Have You Tried Factory Resetting The Watch?

1. Ensure the watch is powered on.

2. Hold down the side button for 10 seconds.

3. Release the side button and wait for the watch to power down.

4. Once the watch is powered down, hold down the side button again for 10 seconds.

5. Release the side button and wait for the watch to power back up.

6. Once the watch is powered back up, check to see if the issue you were having has been resolved.

If the issue persists, it’s possible that the watch may need to be serviced. In this case, you should contact the manufacturer for further assistance.
