In that last video the guy made it seem like the Gear would alert you if you forgot your phone. Is this actually in? I can't seem to find a setting for it either on the Gear or in Gear manager and mine definitely doesn't alert me that I left the phone behind, unless it's just the vibration saying you lost Bluetooth connectivity. In the video it didn't appear to be that tho, because he wasn't very far from the phone when he got the alert.
it does let you know bc it disconnect from Bluetooth then it vibrates on your wrist

In the video he doesn't look very far from the phone before he "got the alert" when I'm outside I can go 50-60 feet easily before Bluetooth disconnects. I was hoping I had missed a more intelligent alert with regards to leaving the phone behind, but I guess it's not there.

Hello, I have received my free smartwatch few days ago, it seems to be working fine, but there is a issue.
I don't get any alert when my phone is disconnected from watch (there is a slight vibration, but no notification or message)
My question is how do I get my watch to vibrate and display message that my phone is lost?
this seems like a pretty much great thing to have, is there a way to get it?
Thanks a lot

Mine vibrates twice when I am out of range from phone or when I turn the bluetooth on my phone off.

Well yeah, I get that too...
But the problem is it should at least vibrate 5 times and display a message.. This way I am not sure if it is just Facebook spam or my phon ebeing lost..
So there is no way to turn on this additional alert?

I don't think that it has an option for this.
Install watchit or augmented smartwatch and you will get the alert.

After watching the latest ad on the samsung gear, the last ending segment is what sold me to finally pull the trigger.
Here's the problem, how do I set this up? I get forgetful sometimes and leave my phone on the desk. So how do I set it up so that if I leave without my phone, my watch will lock the phone and then notify me with vibrate that I forgot it? Any help is appreciated.
-thx
Same question. One dude in one video pudh button on gear and phone starts alert

when the watch disconnects due to the distance between you and your phone it vibrates telling you you walked away from your phone and that the watch has lost connection. Which also means hay you left your phone on the table. lol
No. I do not speak about it (btw this only shows me lost connection-no alert). I was speaking about pushing gear power button and mobile starts ringing. Cool feature

Mine just tells me the bluetooth disconnected (along with a buzz) which is enough. No real notification.

That is probably "Find my phone" which is a built in app.
1. The Gear vibrates when it gets out of BT range. As far as I know there is no setting for this, it default.
2. Find my device and find gear are 2 default apps in gear manager and in gear.

Find my device works but it is manual.
Be kind of nice to walk away and get more than a vibration when you exceed Bluetooth range.
3. If u lock your phone with a pattern gear will unlock the pattern. But not the whole lockscreen, u still have to swype over the screen. It has to be in a range of about 10cm

It's in the gear manager on your phone, Settings, 1st option: Autolock.
Hi guys, yes indeed the vibration is a standard setting for proximity alert. However me too u would like to change that to a spoken notification both for out of prxomity alert "connectiopn lost" and for reconnecting.
Any ideas?

Is anyone experiencing their phone waking up and waiting for you to ask it something? It's happened just sitting on the counter, my pocket or streaming music/podcasts. It happens at least one or more times a day, I tried retraining it for my voice a few times but still happens.

Go retrain it once more in a completely silent room. You should be able to hear nothing except air moving (fan, a/c, etc.). Then report back.

Biggest thing is keep it at arm's length. Like really, extend your arm to the fullest, and then speak normally. Try it.

The last time I walked out to my garage to be away from any noise, I'll try again today and make sure I hold it at arm's length(tried that on initial setup)

Good luck! I had the same issue as you in the beginning. I uninstalled updates and reinstalled to try to make sure previous cache and settings were cleared and re-trained at arms length and now it works pretty well!

also, make sure you use the same pitch and cadence when saying it. If i want the phone to pick up my voice easier, i can say ok google now when training it in slightly different ways. But then my phone also comes on and thinks im saying it when no one has said anything close to ok google now. If you make sure everything sounds the exact same when saying it, i didn't run into any problems. But i can't wake the phone up when i first wake up in the morning lol. I always try but i apparently sound like death whenever i first wake up.

I agree, try using the same voice for all three samples. I know that early on people were suggesting you say it with slightly different speed etc but I have found it is best to try to say it the same all three times and let the software in the Moto X handle slightly variations automatically.
Mine wakes up all day sitting on my desk at work. I do talk about Google a lot, but I never say my phrase. It's funny some of the stuff I see it type...

This is an interesting thread for me. I had the Note 3 (hi galaxy) and Nexus 5 (ok google). Both of them would think I was talking to them when I wasn't, and I have almost the opposite problem with the Moto X. I have a hard time to get it to listen. I re-trained, re-trained, re-trained.. My wife's phone works flawlessly. I do love that we train our voices because she uses here touchless control all the time right next to me and my phone has yet to mistake mine for hers.
Maybe I need shorter arms.
OK quick update, I uninstalled the Touchless Control update and retrained my Moto X again in my garage this morning. It's been about 7 hours and it hasn't once yet turned itself on. I streamed music, have been in congested areas with people, a business meeting and it's working perfectly now.
I'm going to wait for 24 hours to make sure it's still working correctly and then install the update to the app.
About ready to scream!
The touchless control on my Moto X Developer Edition is extremely sensitive. Anytime anyone talks in the office that I work in, the dang phone comes on and waits for someone to give it a command. All anyone has to do is say "OK" and it does this even when I don't want it to. I've tried retraining the phone multiple times and it doesn't seem to help me out at all. I'm going to be so glad when the Lollipop update finally rolls out for this phone so I can get retrain this with a different launch phrase that will not be so easy to trigger on my phone. In the meantime, has anyone been able to get the sensitivity adjusted on this phone? If so, how? I'm thinking of going to Cyanogenmod 12.1 until Lollipop rolls out for the XT1060,
Any help that I can get on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
I was wondering if people had any issues with alerts not vibrating on the watch? I have an S4 and when i put my phone on silent i dont get any vibration alerts on my phone.
is there any way to change this?
thanks
Hi there,
Yes, got exactly the same issue with my G Watch R, and I also use an S4.
I'm going to see if there's a difference between putting my phone on silent 'manually', versus using the Android Wear app 'Silence on connected phone' and 'Alert on watch only' option.

I contacted LG and posted on the google forums and it seems like its this way by design. it will mirror whats going on on the phone so if the phone is silent it wont vibrate the watch. I used the android wear app to send google feedback as id like to see more control over this.
I have my N5 on silent during the day at work, but my watch vibrates fine. There is a setting on the watch with a swipe down. Try putting your phone on silent and then pull down the menu on the watch to see if notifications are silent on there.
Hi
Im using a gw5 pro lte connected to a s21+ over bt. Whenever i receive a call on the phone the watch starts ringing right away but the screen with the caller id appears after a minimum 5 sec to sometimes 10 sec. Even if i wake up the screen, the caller still appears after that time.All other notifications appear instantly. I could easily pick up my phone from the pocket and see who's calling rather than see it on my watch. I previously owned a s3 frontier, a gw 1, a gw 3 and none of them had this delay. Is this normal behaviour? If it is than it sucks... Any help is appreciated! I attached a video in wich the delay is about 5 sec...
strange, this doesn't happen to me. What software?

I have the same problem. Any one can help us?
I found this. To the gear go to application and turn of the contacts . Then go to play store and download contacts google to your watch
The same again. Sorry my friend. When disconnected from the phone and connect did the same again
Its frustrating isnt it? I still dont know if this is a warranty problem or not. My wife's watch 5 bt is acting similar...
