They've done it again

[PITA47]

Just had my S9 FE tablet delivered. Lovely tablet, but once again no watch connectivity. Let me guess its because its not mobile and have removed that function, so why ( if not only to rub salt into the old wounds ) is the fit allowed to connect.

Like you say, it's not a mobile.

[PITA47]

It is. It has a sim card. It's my mobile phone.

[keith30]

The watch has to connect to mobile and not your tablet.

Your device cannot be connected to a watch, just because you call it your mobile phone, and because of the fact it has a sim card, doesnt make it a "phone". If you want to sync a watch to a device, get a proper phone, simple really.

[PITA47]

Okay. So why is the Fit allowed to connect

[PITA47]

Well, I would get a "PROPER PHONE" as youso kindly put it, but being disabled, confined to home I wanted to connect his Samsung watch to this tablet/Phone/Life Line. So I was able to utilise the fall app I have, which contacts a family member if I fall over.
Perhaps I'll buy a non Samsung Watch and download the android Wear app.

Im not trying to sound rude, and i apologise if it came across that way, Maybe doing a little research before purchasing anything would help you, a simple search brought me this straight away.

[UNKNOWNUSERNAME]

Because they're different apps, no one is trying to argue with you we're just telling you how it is.

[PITA47]

They told me the same thing 4 years ago, but when you see this when trying to pair your other products, it gives you some kind hope that the company listened.
But hey ho.
