Sony SmartWatch Calls

[Inez94]

Hi,

I have a Sony SmartWatch and when I get a call I only get an option to either reject or mute the call, the option to recieve a call doesn't show up on my watch even if I connect my headset to my phone. It's strange because on the startup guide it clearly demonstrates that the call can be picked up. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note, everything else works fine on my watch apart from that one option that would come in handy for me, oh and also I am pretty sure that when I got my first call I could pick it up straight from my watch but now that option's gone for some reason, something with settings? I've heard that other people have an issue on that too. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hi Inez,

My reply may not help you, since I'm having the same prob as yours. Just wanted to point out, they have mentioned in their specs page that the call accept will not work on other brands.

Quote: Note! Take-call functionality is not supported for phones listed under other brands. UnQuote.

I never saw this there before i bought the watch. Maybe they appended the Specs details. If the cheapest of bluetooth headphones can accept calls when paired with any phone, why can't this supposedly SMART device? Sony is surely trying to get an upper hand with their phones n accessories, which they are going to lose since there are so many other competitors out there. They are trying to make the same mistake as Nokia did.

One more to add... They have a pathetic support team who never cares to answer any of our queries. At least from my past experience. I used to be a die hard fan of Sony stuff. Now I'm with Samsung.

Regards

Arfath

Have you installed the SmartWatch app and also the call handling extension app?
