   How to fully connect smart watch to andr   
   01 Jan 26 10:42:11   
   
   From: NONONOmisc07@fmguy.com   
      
   I can't completely connect my smart watch to my android phone.   
      
   The message is "please pair the phone call bluetooth" but I've done   
   that, afaik, since the app says it's connected and it will make changes   
   to the watch, but the watch wants more.   
      
   Details   
   I bought a no-name smart watch and everything about it and its app seems   
   nice.   
      
   It said to pair it with the phone using the Dafit app and not the phone,   
   and I did that. (Actualy I first paired it using Settings/Bluetoth and   
   had to erase that after I read the directions, which I have no read   
   fully.)   The little manual says "After the Blutooth connection between   
   the APP and the watch is completed, the call function is automatically   
   connected."   
      
   I had already enabled Hey Google on my phone, and it will call a phone   
   number when I tell it to -- although I had to change my name from Me to   
   Me for sure.   
      
   It warns you that the Call function uses more power and urges you to   
   turn it off when not using it, but it has a way to turn it on, I presume   
   when you are waiting for a call, because even if it's not on, when you   
   try to place a call, it seems to provide a screen that easily turns it   
   on, but I have tested this having turned it on separately, and I just   
   did again.   
      
   And every time I get "please pair the phone call bluetooth" even though   
   the app says I'm connected and it will do other app things to the watch   
      
   FWIW, the phone is a Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro
