Pairing the M360 with multiple Android devices

I find it hard to believe I'm the only one who likes my M360 syncing with my tablet when I'm home, and with my smartphone when I'm out. There is actually no official way to pair the M360 with multiple Android devices at the same time, but I have, however, figured out an alternative. I am going to assume that you already have it paired to one device. If not I believe there are other threads out there to help you with that!
Steps:
In the Android Wear official app, tap the watch icon on the translucent black bar atop the screen to disconnect the M360 first
Check to make sure that underneath the name of your device, the status reads "Not connected"
Go to the watch settings, and reset the device, yes unfortunately there is no way around except factory resetting first
Now go through the original instructions upon boot making sure that this time you pair it with your OTHER Android device
Follow the first two steps again after the device has been paired successfully and booted up
Congratulations! The M360 should now pair with the two devices one at a time after being disconnected from one another!
Hope this helped you guys, as this method definitely works for me with my Nexus 7 (flo) and Galaxy SIII (SGH-I747)!

Doesn't work as of now, using a Google Nexus 10 tablet and Sony Xperia Z2 smartphone. Whichever device is paired last works fine. The other device will manage a pairing request just fine after disconnecting the first one, but once that pairing request is approved, it will sit forever on the "Connecting..." status, and never actually connect.

Is this every watch? I use 2 phones every day because my work does not allow camera phones. I think not being to connect to 2 devices at this junction of tech should not be a handicap.

is it possible to install RunKeeper on moto 360 and upload all activity to my profile?

Yes this is an Android Wear limitation, not a Moto 360 one.

I second that opinion. I just learned of this yesterday when I got my Moto 360. I have been using SmartWatch 2 before and figured that Android Wear being so much newer and with more features it would allow me to connect it to multiple devices... well, crap.
Is the situation same even with the new 5.1.1 version of Android Wear? Google *still* doesn't let us connect to multiple devices?
(And iOS doesn't even have the Android Wear app.. you'd think we live 15 years in the past with these stupid limitations...)

No this limitation has not changed.

so do i have to connnect everytime that i leave one device behind within the app? Bc they both wont stay connected its one or the other??

Nexus 7 2013 bluetooth

Hello experts,
I'd love to link via Bluetooth the swr50 to my Nexus 7 2013.
I can see it listed in the connections list, but then I can't link them.
Suggestions?
Thanks

Reset your watch through settings.
Then open android wear on nexus and follow instructions. ..

Now my SWR50 is linked to my phone Z3c.
If I pair it with my Nexus 7 tablet, will I lose the connection with my phone, or will SRW50 be paired with both (phone and tablet)?
Thanks for help!

You can only connect to 1 device: either phone or tablet not both

Hello,
I didn't try to, since a smatwear seems to be linked to ONLY ONE device: I chosen the phone.
Best regards

Root SW 3 to use with iphone...

Is it possible to intall apps on the sw3 and use it with an iphone?

All Android Wear watches, including the Sony Smartwatch 3, work with the iPhone. If your watch is too old you might need to connect it to an Android phone or computer to install an update first. The iPhone does not support apps but if you have an app that it completely independent (doesn't need a companion app on the phone to work) then you can download the Android APK and extract the watch's micro-APK from it, then use adb to install it to the watch.

any instructions on how to do this

Anybody where uses is Sony Smartwatch 3 with iphone?
i want to install more APPS but i don´t know how...

Any updates on this topic?

Hello, any news on this topic? I am wondering in using the SW3 as a standalone device with no pairing to any smartphone. Do you think this will be possible? Wifi and BT options only display when connected to an Android smartphone, not by pairing to iPhone.
Thank you.
Christian

This is not possible; you have to set up the watch with a phone before you can use it. Android Wear 2.0 will allow standalone apps, but I'm not sure about using the watch without setting it up with a phone, especially when the watch won't have its own cellular connection.

Phone dont see the smartwatch 3

Hi guys,
i bought the secondhand sony smartwatch 3 today and i have a problem with connection
The phone does'nt detect the watch. when i am running Android Wear app and seek watches, phone doesn't detect my smartwatch.
i trying reset watch. not helped.
Please help.

Did you go through the Android Wear app's pairing process? After a factory reset the watch guides you through the steps on how to pair with your phone. Also check that the watch isn't paired as a regular bluetooth device first (forget the device in bluetooth settings of the phone before trying to setup via android wear)

You definitely need to factory reset the watch in order to begin the correct pairing sequence with your phone, if you haven't already done so.

Sony smartwatch 3 can't connect to the internet

Hello everyone. I'm new here. I don't know if there is a topic similar with my issue but my smartwatch sony 3 can't connect with the internet and with the android wear app. Yesterday it was working well with my android tablet, but then I pair with another android smartphone and I can't connect it again with my tablet. It says on the smartwatch that is connected but then it shows "Just a minute..." and on the android tablet "checking for updates... this may take a few minutes". After a few minutes it shows on the smartwatch "can't connect to the android wear app on your phone. Swipe for some tips."
I have done the downgrade of the smartwatch to LWX48P version because I want to update to LCA43 to use NFC with freestyle libre because I am diabetic. Please help me, and thank you so much for your patience.
Best regards from Portugal,
Catarina

Greetings. Perhaps the problem you are having is the switch. Your watch can only be connected to one host device (phone/tablet) at a time. In order to switch you need to disconnect it from the device and set it up as a new device on the new one. This will trigger a wipe (at least of /data). There may be an app to make the switch easier, but I am not sure.
Good luck.

Just a hunch, but you probably need to disconnect it from Android Wear on both devices, then remove Bluetooth pair from both devices in Bluetooth settings, then reset the watch to factory settings, then start with a clean slate.
But previous poster is correct, you cannot pair it with 2 devices, which is really annoying, so pick one device only, and you can't switch from one to the other, and then back again.

Thank you so much for your reply! It works if the smartwatch has the latest version ! But the main question is that with the LWX48P version I can't connect with my tablet. But I need to update to LCA43, and without internet I can't do it. I searched for a OTA version of LWX48P to LWX49K to LDZ22D and finally to LCA43 to make the upgrade manually but I can't find it. Can you help me please? Thank you!
