Getting started

Introduction

Your SmartWatch 3 accessory, which is powered by Android Wear, organises your information, suggests what you need, and shows it to you before you even ask. Use it to receive and reply to messages, view appointment notifications, and glance at weather updates – all from the convenience of your wrist. There’s no need to reach

for a phone or tablet as long as a Bluetooth® connection has been established with your SmartWatch 3.

Using voice commands, you can ask questions like “When is my next meeting?” or “How do I get to the train station?” and get straight answers. You can also, for example, use the SmartWatch 3 to keep track of your fitness with daily summaries showing your step count. And you can regularly add new apps from Google Play™ to extend functionality. Useful new apps and features are being added all the time as well as updates to existing apps that you’ve installed. You get automatic notifications when such updates are available.

The SmartWatch 3 works with any Android™ phone or tablet running Android™ version 4.3 or higher. To see if your Android™ device is compatible for use with Android wear, go to http://g.co/WearCheck.

To achieve full functionality and performance, use the wristband together with the main unit of the SmartWatch 3.
