I just got Android Wear 2.0 on my Zenwatch 3 and I'm sorry to say Assistant and gestures are lot worst now.
First of all, i'm italian, and Assistant poorly recognise italian lenguage.
I use to use smartwatch especially when i'm driving or when i'm on my work bike (i'm a pony express) so I need a device I can use touchless.
Wear 2.0 lost some gestures as the on to go ahead to funcion like "reply" or "delete" in messages (the ones used pushing down or pulling app your wirst) so now i must to touch the screen for everything.
About Assistant: i often use it to send Telegram messages just by telling Google Now (obviously in italian) "send Telegram message to SomeoneX" followed by the message instead.
Now, if i tell "Ok Google. Send a Message to (ex.) Mark" assistant shows me "to whom?"... anda I say "Mark"... "to whom?"... "MARK!"... "to Whom?"... IN A FU****G LOOP!
jUST i CAN'T USE MY SMARTWATCH WITHOUT MY HANDS ANYMORE!
I had already try even to Factory Reset both Watch and Phone.
Someone can Hepl?

I had this happen at first too, but my problem was because my account did not transfer from my phone properly. Go to settings on the watch then Personalization/Accounts and make sure your account is actually there.

What do you recommend to do factory restoration ?; only "clear data" or "Factory reset"
Hi All.
I got my watch yesterday and had the same "to whom?" issue when trying to send a whatsapp message. I opened to phone app on the watch and allowed it the permissions it wanted. After this the voice commands for sending messages worked immediately.
Hope this helps, I've seen a lot of posts around with no answers.

I just got my Zenwatch 3 today. Everything is fine but using whatsapp is inconvenience... there is no dedicated app...
If I keep swiping in the home screen to right eventually I will reach a contact page, after selecting a person there is some options like make a call, send a sms, and "whatsapp". However the whatsapp action is not working, everytime I press that there is a loading circle appears for a few seconds, then saying unable to reach Google...
Receiving notification and replying a whatsapp message has no issue, but I just can't initiate whatsapp from the contact page... tried to start whatsapp in phone but not helping...
I tried to search for solution but seems no one has this issue.. can someone give some tips on this? Thanks.
I just checked it with my watch and can confirm the message. I can't remember if it worked when I first set up my ZenWatch. It's my first Wear Device and I just have it for three weeks, so I don't know if it should work in general.
When I choose that option on my watch it gives me speech recognition to write a message. I am not having any problems whatsoever. It just doesn't work too well if my phone is dozing.
Hello there!
I've never had any problem using Moto Voice and its touchless function before.
It now behaves differently and not in a good way.
Each time I summon Moto Voice using my predefined sentence, it says "Opening Google Now", even for sending a text message.
It does not understand "take a note" anymore, a standard Google search is performed instead.
When I want to send a text message, it often opens whatsapp instead and then say something like "a problem occured, we'll talk later"
When I send a text message, it only understand and transcript/display the last part of what I'm saying.
It often does not understand the "what's up?" sentence and perform a basic Google search instead.
Has anybody here having the same behavior?
My idea is that something has changed in Google services.
My Moto X 2014 is stock, french language, last available update installed. I've tried to hard reset but the behavior is the same.
Any idea? thank you.
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has encountered this nonsense issue:
When trying to send a sms or Whastapp message with ok google assistant, when you specify who you want to send it and what is the message, then the watch forces you to press the screen for send or cancel the message. Whats the use of saying everything out loud if you need to confirm the sending of the message with your finger?? If you are using voice commands it's because you cannot press the screen!
When adding a new reminder it does not do that. It shows a button with an x and a circle counter line so if you don't stop it, it will save the reminder. That really makes sense and its the way I usuallty send messages on wear 1.5.
Is it the Ok Google app?
Thanks!!
I thought it was confirming it's transcription of my message

Yes of course, but it does not make any sense to have to press the screen to send it. When talking to the watch it´s because you can not press the watch screen. For example: biking. I think some developers design and develope software that they don´t use and that´s a shame.
Hello All,
My biggest problem with AW2 is Google Assistant because not support my language Czech...
With Google Now on AW1.5 was everything fine and all voice commands worked great in my language.
Is there some chance or way for working Google Now on AW2?
Or only possible way is downgrade back to the AW1.5.?
Thank you for all ideas and answers :good:
Same problem.

Hello,
One week with new stock OTA update to Android 10. Now, in car, while Android Auto, I can say to send a message throug whatsapp to someone, but when asking for the content of the message, then it follows a voice error sentence like "your conection to internet is not strong enough" or "your internet connection is very weak" (translated from spanish)
I have deleted Google app and Google keyboard app, deprecated Android Auto without updates and the activated again, reinsatlled and still same problem.
Any help from anyone that solved the problem would be apreciated.
(Yes I know, format the mobile, but i want ot avoid it if possible)
Edit: Also Google photos can not save anything, not while Android auto, everytime.
This is a must. I need to format mobile...
Well, I can answer myself with the solution:
Formated the phone comepltelty to new. NO SOLUTION.
Then investigated deeply. GOOGLE app has the same problem. Not always but sometimes. Google board seems to workl fine and understand correctly the spoken messages. My version is in beta.
Desisinstalled Goolge board, THATS ALL. Perfect now. Do not use Gboard and you spoke your messages to android auto.
Thank you very much to me to find the solution.
Now keep installing programs and entering passwords all day as mobile is formatted....
