hello,

I am wondering if it's possible to operate watch as usual when watch is out of bluetooth range but still connected to the same network as phone?

By "operate" i mean for instance to receive notifications from social media apps. 

I'm s23 + galaxy watch 6 user.  No LTE.

Thanks a lot.

@Members_sz6z3HZ Yes, that is possible. Open the Galaxy Wearable app, tap Watch settings, and then tap Advanced features. Tap the switch next to Remote connection to turn it on.

You can also turn on the wifi on the GW6 and connect to your wifi. The watch will get notifications that way too.

Thanks guys.

It only worked out once I switched OFF option "Mobile networks" -> Always off.

 

Thank you!
