r/WearOS

Hey everyone,

I’ve spent the last few months building Sanjivani, an app designed to solve a problem we’ve all had: waking up sick and wishing we knew it was coming sooner.

The Problem: Most wearables tell you how you slept, but they don't tell you what is about to happen to your health. The Solution: Sanjivani uses EMA-smoothed Multi-Signal Correlation (RHR, HRV, SpO2) to detect pathological anomalies before physical symptoms manifest.

Why I think the community will like it:

1. 100% Privacy (Local-First): Unlike other health apps, the AI logic happens entirely on your device. Your biology stays in your "Black Box."
2. Guardian SOS Protocol: An autonomous safety layer that notifies your emergency contact if high-risk states persist—without a human-in-the-loop.
3. No Bullshit Alerts: I use a "Smart Suppression" layer to filter out shifts caused by alcohol, caffeine, or intense workouts.

The website is live at https://www.sanjivaniai.in, and I’m looking for 50-100 beta testers to help refine the clinical precision.

I have been a smartwatch user since 2014. Pebble was my first smartwatch, then ticwatch, then fossil, then Galaxy. Galaxy for me has always had Sleep monitoring problems and for months now my Galaxy 7 watch raise to wake has not been working properly which is frustrating. Purchased a Pixel 3 on Ebay to give it a try and I was totally surprise with the sleep monitoring. It is the best of any watch I have tried. Tried the pixel for 2 weeks, had a few problems with the step count but its fixed now and I've sold my galaxy watches on Ebay. BTW, the raise to wake on the pixel works perfectly. Just sharing... Never thought Google would surpass Samsung.

Ciao a tutti,
sto avendo un problema molto strano con Spotify sul mio Xiaomi Watch 5 con Wear OS 5.

Con il mio account principale Spotify non riesco a collegarmi allo smartwatch: l’app mostra un errore di connessione anche se Internet è attivo.
Ho però provato con un altro account sullo stesso orologio e lì funziona tutto correttamente, quindi il problema sembra legato al mio account e non al dispositivo.

Ho già contattato l’assistenza Spotify 3 volte nell’ultima settimana e ho seguito tutti i passaggi che mi hanno suggerito:

• cancellare la cache di Spotify sullo smartwatch;
• cancellare i dati sul telefono;
• rimuovere eventuale cartella com.spotify;
• disinstallare e reinstallare Spotify sia sul telefono che sul watch.

Le versioni che sto usando sono:

• Spotify smartwatch: 9.1.40.1482
• Spotify telefono: 9.1.40.1486

Il telefono è un Redmi Note 13.

L’errore che compare sullo smartwatch è questo: “Si è verificato un problema. Assicurati di avere una connessione a Internet sullo smartwatch. Riprova.”

A questo punto penso che il problema sia collegato al mio account Spotify principale, perché con un altro account sullo stesso orologio tutto funziona.

Qualcuno ha avuto un problema simile o sa come risolverlo?

This is a dev question: does anyone know if WearOS makes calendar information available via content provider?

I'm writing a simple agenda application that fetches upcoming calendar events for all my calendars, but all my queries are returning empty data.

• The Google Calendar app is installed on my watch and shows my upcoming events.
• The Google Calendar complication works fine.
• I ran my code both on an emulator logged in to my account, as well as on my physical watch (Pixel Watch 4).

My test code runs fine on my Android phone, so I'm suspecting it's a limitation of Google Calendar on the watch, for example listing all calendars:

    val calendars = mutableListOf<CalendarItem>()
    val projection = arrayOf(
        CalendarContract.Calendars._ID,
        CalendarContract.Calendars.CALENDAR_DISPLAY_NAME,
        CalendarContract.Calendars.CALENDAR_COLOR
    )
    val cursor = context.contentResolver.query(
        CalendarContract.Calendars.CONTENT_URI, projection,
        null, null, null
    )
    cursor?.use {
        while (it.moveToNext()) {
            val id = it.getLong(0)
            val displayName = it.getString(1)
            val color = it.getInt(2)
            calendars.add(CalendarItem(id, displayName, color))
        }
    }

All documentation I found seems to suggest this should work on WearOS but I tried looking for other similar apps and they either aren't available anymore, or seem to depend on a mobile app. I'm starting to think that this is deprecated functionality.

Are my only options here to make a companion app, or to implement the Google Calendar API?

Hi everyone! I switched from android to apple years ago as wanted a smartwatch and at the time, nothing android had was comparable. I’m getting tired off Apple and want to move back to Android.

What would you recommend?

Hey everyone,

I got my Galaxy Watch 8 a few days ago and yesterday I started using the Running Coach feature. Today was my first actual run with it, and I turned on the voice assistant so I wouldn’t have to keep looking at the watch while running.

However… I was pretty surprised when the assistant started speaking in what sounded like a completely unknown language. Or honestly not even a real language, more like gibberish 😅

I couldn’t find anything about this issue online, and I also didn’t find any clear way to change the assistant’s language (if that’s even the problem).

Has anyone experienced something like this?
Any idea what might be causing it or how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!
