Smartwear is one of the easiest Chinese smartwatch apps to use and set up, just as simple or even simpler than Bluetooth Notifier.

How to set up a Chinese smartwatch

When buying a Chinese smartwatch, one of the first things to consider is the operating system it uses . In many cases, brands opt for Wear OS, the operating system developed by Google for these devices. If this is the case, the process is very simple, as setup won't take much time. To do this, you'll need to use the Wear OS app on your phone.

Once the app is downloaded, we need to activate Bluetooth on both devices and, in the Wear OS app, tap "Start setup." Then, we simply follow the on-screen instructions to connect the two devices . A message saying "Connected" will appear on the screen, letting us know that the connection has been made.

Once connected, we can easily set up this smartwatch . We can do this from the Wear OS app without much trouble. We'll customize the watch's functions to suit our needs.

How to connect a Chinese smartwatch to Android

In the past, if a Chinese smartwatch didn't have Android Wear or Wear OS, you had to use other apps. Unfortunately, many of these have been removed from the store, such as Smart Wear or MediaTek Smart Device . The good news is that there's another app that allows you to connect the watch to your Android phone and resolves notification issues.

This is Watch Droid Phone , which has been available for Android for some time. This app helps you connect your Android smartwatch to your phone to receive notifications from your apps, control music playback, send files from your phone to the smartwatch, and much more. To do this, you need to download both the watch and phone apps:

BT Notifier

This app is common on Chinese smartwatches , but in many cases it can cause problems, such as with notifications. Therefore, it's recommended to remove it from the watch. Especially since we can use other apps that will work better, such as Droid Watch, which offers similar functions, as well as additional features, without causing problems with the watch's operation.

Bluetooth Notifier is currently available for download from Google Play . However, user reviews are overwhelmingly negative, clearly indicating that it's an app that doesn't quite live up to expectations. It's best to avoid using it on your Chinese smartwatch.

We hope this short tutorial has helped you set up your Chinese smartwatch and resolved your notification issues. If you've found another way to fix this annoying problem, please share your solution in the comments.
