Product Manuals
Q: Does it answer phone calls?? Does ut have gps? Can u send msg from the watch?
A: It answers phone calls (you can in fact choose a couple options of answering from watch and picking up the call from your phone or answering from your watch and picking up the call over your watch as well). It does have GPS, and you can download the Google Maps application for directions just like you would on your phone. Lastly, you can send messages from the watch freely likely you would from your phone (I have a Google Pixel 4 XL, and I have my android messages application sync'd up with the watch to allow for this - very nice and very impressed by it)
A: The most difficult part you will run into is getting your iTunes library to work with Android at all. I recommend looking into Google Play Music app and trying to import your library into that app (it should be possible). You can then download the library from the app onto your devices for offline listening. If you can get the music onto your Samsung, then you should be able to get it on your watch. I have this watch with an Android phone and really enjoy it!!
Q: I want to know if this smart watch works with a Samsung galaxy phone?
A: Yes i have a note 10 plus and it works good
Q: Can you answer calls and text directly from this watch?
A: You can answer calls - the sound quality both ways is rather good but, you can't type a text. You can use Google speech to text.
Q: Can I swim with the Fossil Gen 5 watch with the leather band?
A: You can but leather doesn't do well in the water. You can easy swap a silicon band when your swimming and switch back to the leather as desired.
A: 1gb of RAM and twice the storage versus gen 4.
Q: Does this smartwatch have Google maps on it?
A: Hi Milton, Yes, you have to download it from the Play Store on the watch, the apps will use 1.22 MB of your watch memory.
A: There is a setting on the watch you must enable. Push the big button and go to Settings. Find Phone and go from there. The phone must be Android. Please also know this can take up the power a little faster.
