Talk on your watch while your phone is away
Leave your phone behind: the watch plays the room by itself, and you can set its sound and mic.
What it is
With Talk on watch, listen on phone, room audio plays on your phone. If the phone goes away (off, airplane mode, out of range or out of battery), KeyUp plays the room on your watch instead, and switches back when the phone returns.
When to use it
Use it when you leave your phone in the truck or locker and keep working with just your watch.
How to do it
-
Nothing to turn on. A few seconds after your phone leaves the room, the watch says Playing on your watch while your phone is away and plays the room.
