QuestionTextingCan you send text messages on watch itself?
Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer I have been able to send texts and reply via speech , "ok google, send text to...... message......", while my phone is synched to my watch. The watch itself though doesnt have a way to send them without a synched phone to my knowledge though.

QuestionDoes the watch have a heart rate monitor?I've read conflicting reports on the web where some say it does, and others say it doesn't. In Best Buy's Specs tab, it lists... Distance Traveled/Calories Burned/Other. What exactly is 'Other'? Finally, ASUS's web page doesn't list any of the sensors! Huh?

QuestionNeed Immediate help setting up this watchFriday evening I purchase a Asus Zenwatch 2 at BestBuy, Concord, NH. Took it home and charged the watch overnight. Saturday morning, I connected the watch via Bluetooth to my LG G4 phone. The watch would connect fine, but would quickly disconnect and display "Updating". Since the watch was not connected to my phone or WiFi, I didn't know what was updating, but whatever. Then the watch would display Syncing, as shown in the manual, but again it was not connected to anything. I installed Android Wear to see if would connect, but it never connected. I tried multiple times to connect and factory reset the watch a couple of times. Then one last time, I attempted to connect the watch to my wife's Samsung Galaxy G4, with same results. Yesterday, Sunday, I took the watch back to the store for help. Multiple people tried to connect the phone to my LG, but no luck. After about 2 hours, they swapped the watch with another new watch. After about an hour with this 2nd watch, I agreed to take the watch home and go back to the store tonight for more help. As you can tell, I want this watch and I am guessing we are doing something wrong, but have no idea what. Unfortunately, if we cannot get this resolved today, I will need to move on. Can you help?
Asked 10 years ago by sptrck.
- Answer Make sure you install Android wear and also connect the watch via wifi to install the latest version. The watch will update several times and it does take a while to update so please be patient. You can track the update progress by going into the About tab in the Settings menu on the watch. By the way this is an excellent watch. Good Luck,

QuestionCan ladies wear this watch?
Asked 9 years ago by nm.
- Answer Ladies can wear the watch but it definitely stands out and is more suited for males. The smaller Zenwatch 2 might be more appropriate for females that desire discreetness and fashion over function.

QuestionCan you use watch to talk on incoming and out going calls ?Can you calls on this watch
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer If you pair a Bluetooth headset, you can take calls while leaving your phone in your pocket. This watch does have a speaker, but it is dormant until a future update to Android Wear enables it. It also has a microphone, of course, that is used for responding to text messages, and using "OK Google" commands.

QuestionDoes the watch work with Samsung s5.is it for male or female
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer It's supposed to. I personally use it on my LG G5. This is probably mostly a man's watch, but I just bought some more feminine looking colored bands and that greatly helped. Yes, it's big, but the smaller version fits not have the speaker and you can't answer the phone from it.
