How are you doing with new message notifications? For me, they either come late or don’t come at all. And the avatars of contacts and groups are displayed every other time, that is, then no.
I haven’t had time to put such a question yet, but I plan to. I receive notifications from Votsapp on my watch, everything is ok, but if I put Votsapp on the clock separately, will the notifications start to be duplicated? The Internet is far from always on the clock, and if you leave it only on them, then I will miss half of the messages. And if you leave notifications only on the phone, then there won’t be much from this watsapp and show-off.
They won’t start. There is a beta version on the phone and on the watch
Well, notifications are not duplicated, but they arrive with a wild delay. I think due to the fact that there is no Internet on the watch, I need to test it with Wi-Fi
The ability to respond to the notification on the clock has disappeared. There is only an opportunity to open in the application. Has this happened to anyone else?
checked, I confirm this, GW4 classic watch
Crooked app so far – wild message delay, can’t reply quickly, only recent chats
I haven’t tried everything to run on Fossil Gen 5, who tried to install the thread on Wear os 2. Installation error goes through Bugjaeger Mobile ADB. Through the market writes is not supported. I tried to lower the Api of the application, but there is no result. Of course, you can buy Samsung or Pixel, they don’t go in by design, maybe there are owners of Fossil gen 6 working for you?

In the latest official update of Whatsapp dated June 5 (not a beta version, but a simple one), Wear OS support has been added. But I still did not understand how to put WEAR OS 3.5 on the SGW4 watch. When choosing a watch on Google Play, nothing is found for Whatsapp.
Nikolay_ACE, I support the question – how to put it is not clear
Nikolay_ACE, here’s how to bet. I have a Fossil Gen 5 HR watch, so it says it’s not supported, who has Wear 3 installed. You can also go into the watch itself, and find it there, if it’s not there, then see above it’s not compatible.
Also, the question is open, the phone version works quietly on wear os 2, but it is not very convenient, though I have a SW mod, they just changed the dpi so that everything could be pressed. And this one is not set because of the Level Api. Downgrading doesn’t give anything, I used to do this for applications that didn’t want to run on bucket 5, and required 7. Where to dig, I think it’s just where Lock for wear 3 specifically stands, in which thread of the script.

It turns out that Wear OS support has been added, but it is not available on the Samsung Galaxy watch 4 classic
Kot_Matroskin_1998, I thought wear os 3 is available on the galaxy watch, but galaxy wearable is installed. On this watch sdk 30.
I have because 28, on wear os 2.
Here is a screenshot from the parsing of apk whatsApp beta yet, it doesn’t get up on my watch even through apk separately, and if I lower it to 28, the result is also zero.
How would I say, and I have mir pay, and such a Watsap version for the phone is the latest to install everything, but it’s not in any, I tried everything I knew, even some just found an emulator for the sake of interest, but never installed.

Which smartwatch can install WhatsApp on
To install WhatsApp on smart watches, it is enough to buy modern gadgets with Android, iOS and other systems. A feature of the program is the lack of payment and the opening of access.
Features of using WhatsApp on smart watches
Before setting up Watsap on a smart watch, it is worth mentioning that it is a multifunctional software that is highly demanded by users. The main functionality includes:
Once users can connect Watsap to their smartwatch, whether it’s Chinese or original, the list of options expands. For example, account holders stay connected around the clock without having a smartphone or tablet at hand. Among the shortcomings, the presence of restrictions stands out – it is impossible to organize outgoing calls. The smartwatch software works exclusively for receiving or sending text and picture messages.
General instructions for installing WhatsApp on a smart watch
To install and use a smart watch with WhatsApp and Viber in Russian, you must follow a clear procedure:
Remember that setting the type of sound notification and general parameters is carried out exclusively from the keyboard installed on the smart watch, after going to the section of the same name. The smart watch supports all popular software options.
Important: modern gadgets running iOS 11 do not support iWatch 3. At the same time, previous firmware is perfectly synchronized with smart watches. The developers promise to fix the situation in the future.

Why WhatsApp may not work correctly
Compliance with the instructions for installing the software on the smart watch and setting it up does not guarantee the stable operation of the mobile application.

The main reasons why mobile messaging and picture messaging app on smartwatch usually does not work are due to:
SmartWatch software is stable on modern gadgets. Technical failures are rare: most of the complexity arises from incorrect user actions. Therefore, it is important to strictly follow the instructions of the developers.
Open the “My” item on your smartphone, go to the “Programs” tab. Next, select WhatsApp and confirm permission to install the messenger. In the My Watch app, allow WhatsApp features to be forwarded to your smart watch. Installation takes some time, you need to wait for it to finish.

And it turns out that WhatsApp can be duplicated if you suddenly installed it from a SIM card, which was later transferred to e-SIM, download the new beta version of WhatsApp, install it on your smartphone and watch, go to the e-SIM number on your phone, then you need to enter the code that will come to SMS through the Go SMS pro application, then when you enter, instead of entering the phone number on the watch, press the settings and press the link device, then scan the cuar code from the watch through the WhatsApp scanner and the WhatsApp with this number will be on both the phone and the watch.

Smart watches and fitness bracelets from Xiaomi and Huami run a proprietary OS. But in them, sending notifications from a smartphone also fully works. They are configured through the MiFit application (for MiBand), Zepp (for synchronization with iOS smartphones), Amazfit (for gadgets released under the Amazfit brand). Switching on is performed as follows:
There is also an unofficial application for synchronizing Xiaomi MiBand fitness bracelets with Android smartphones – Notify & Fitness. With it, by the way, you can turn on notifications of incoming calls from WhatsApp.
Smart watch from Samsung
These devices run either a modified version of Wear OS or Tizen. They are only partially compatible with Wear OS by Google, but it is necessary to configure notifications through the proprietary Samsung Gear program (aka Galaxy Wearable). It is done like this:
The instructions are also relevant for the iPhone, which is connected to a smart watch from Samsung.

Watch on Wear OS
Wear OS is a special version of the Android operating system, adapted specifically for use on smartwatches. It is installed in such popular devices as Oppo Watch, TicWatch Pro, Fossil (Sport, Gen lines), Michael Kors Access Lexington, Motorola 360 and so on. Enabling WhatsApp notifications on them when using an Android smartphone or iPhone is done as follows:
Please note that on some Android smartphones, it may be difficult to send notifications of current incoming WhatsApp calls to smart watches. This is a limitation on the part of Google services, the disadvantage can only be eliminated at the OS kernel level. That is, if the manufacturer did not provide, then it will not be possible to fix it. But notifications about regular messages, as well as missed calls, will come.
Setting up on Apple Watch
