Hi, i'm disabled and only have the use of one arm, is it possible to completely control the 360 watch using my voice ONLY?
I believe so. You can tell it to call or text people in your contacts, tell it to dial numbers, start apps on the watch, etc. Is there anything specific you are worried about not being able to do?

The better option is to customize it like a pendant to wear around your neck. (Moto 360 looks good that way. .see here with steel connect M hook in the video on this page)

..then you can completely use it to swipe and accept calls and voice and use all the features
Using it like a watch on your arm. .yes you can use OK Google and call. .send messages and all. .but you cannot swipe the cards off or accept or reject a call

You can use your nose to swipe off the cards..
I'm not being funny.. I'm not disabled and I do it all the time.
I probably look a bit silly doing it, but when I need it to work it does.
Is swiping the only time you have to touch it
I've had my Moto for about a week and up to now I had no Problems. Since yesterday the notifications are not showing on my watch face. They do reach my watch but are not showing on their own. If I swipe up I can see These notifications but they don't blend into the watch face on Arrival at the watch.
Has anybody an idea. I have rebooted the watch several times.
I have the exact same problem. Does your watch vibrate when you receive texts etc.?
It does seem to vibrate but the vibrations on my watch are so quiet and weak that I mostly miss them.

Oh that's weird.
I get the notifications, but the watch won't turn on.. and it won't vibrate. I have to swipe up like you said.
do you have card previews checked off on android wear app?? if you do and still doesn't work, try resetting the watch..
Also you may have the notifications hidden try swiping up from the bottom of the watch screen to unhide them, this is what happened to me
I deinstalled android wear, deleted the Bluetooth Pairing and reset the watch. I then reinstalled AW and pair as a new wearable. Everything seems to be working now.
Hi,
I have just added a "make notifications vibration stronger" feature in last SWApp Launcher Wear version:

Anyone know how to get the screen back that I saw at set up about how long the vibration would go for? Also, Is there a way to increase intensity on this watch?

Download the app, 'Feel the Wear' by Martin Florek. Allows you to customize your vibrations.
As for intensity. Not possible to alter. That is a hardware fix. But with the app, you can make the vibration last longer than normal, making it more obvious when a notification comes in.
Does anyone find that the vibration is noisy?
I don't know if this is my unit but when it vibrates in a silent room it's audible from a few meters. Vibration strengh is definitely weaker than my 1st gen moto 360.
If it's my unit, I'll ask for a replacement coz I barely feel the vibration.

It's like that for everyone. I have the mesh band which helps since it is metal and can be worn tighter than the link band.
Thanks. IMO the first purpose of a smartwatch is to make sure you get notifications. Therefore I decided to send it back as it was a deal breaker for me. Too bad...really liked the design (black stainless steel )
Vibrator is VERY noisy, I was surprised.
thanks all.

I tried that feel the wear and it tears through battery, but after wearing a watch, which I have not done since mobile became a thing, I find I look at the watch often enough to catch anything I did not feel so I'm good. It's so nice to only pull my phone out to pay for things, now I wait until my phone replaces my keys and eventually the watch can do all that the phone can, pay for things and unlock doors and start cars.
It seems that "Feel The Wear" doesn't show the notification card, it only vibrates. Does anybody have it work with the card popping-up at the same time as the vibration? Or anybody had the same problem and got a solution?

I have very weak vibrations too, and it is very annoying.
The purpose of the watch is to notify me of appointments, emails and calls.
"Feel the Wear" ..... I am not sure what it does if anything.
If does not have very good documentation.
Change the pattern, length of vibrations how ??? "Feel the Wear" does not say.
There is a list of 100 or so applications .... I am supposed to manually edit them and which ones.

Thanks for the tip !!
Why is the vibration so loud lol. I just got the watch yesterday. I wore it to work today and I got three notifications at once and it was way too loud in a silent room. Kinda embarrassing loud. I love this watch but hate the vibrate. I see people have asked this question but I didn't see a solid answer besides rooting it and installing a custom kernel. Is there a way to turn off all vibrations for the watch on a global level? I can live without vibrations but I need notifications.
i dont know what happened. since the update to 1.5, sothing strange is hapening to watch. suddenly begins to to vibrate then stop, the begin again without any reason. dont know if it´s a watch problem, firmware problem... it´s not a constant vibration.. i can not explain exactly. Anyone can help me ? regards

I had that issue since unboxing on July 17th, but not since a factory reset because I unpaired my phone within the watch's settings. I did not connect it to Bluetooth only through android wear and it's working great. I guess I can't make calls but I don't mind. It's working great now.

I have another type of issue. From time to time watch stops vibrating at all and start vibrating again without a reason. I cannot see any behavior pattern in it, but they don't vibrate even in process of loading after reboot. Is it hardware problem? I've tried "Feel the wear" app - no effect, watch just not vibrate when I press "try" button.
update: It starts work after I hardly shake my wrist and work for a hour or two.
My Moto 360 Gen 1 was working fine until two days ago. For no reason, the "call" voice commend no longer calls. It will go through the whole calling animation, and then returns to the watch face. Nothing triggers on the phone. Other voice commands still work. I can still text, open navigation and set alarm through my watch.
I have reset the watch and reinstalled Android Wear app, but nothing change. Anyone else experiencing this? :crying:
edit: It is not just the voice command. When I go to "contact" on my watch, and click "call" with my finger, the animation on the watch will appear, but calling won't trigger on the phone.
Actually, I figured it out. For some reason, the phone app lost its default priority. So every time I tried to call via my watch, the phone doesn't know which app (phone or google hangout dialer) to open. Resetting the default calling app fixed it.
I can't find how to switch screens when I am using one of the workout modes. For example, if I'm in the cycling mode and I want to switch back to watch face or want to take a photo on phone via the app on watch.
Or even if I want to use the bottom button to switch to contacts (which I've preset it too) this just displays the workout mode I've entered (e.g. cycling)

So answering my own question via the Huawei helpdesk "
If you start a workout on the watch, the workout is displayed on the watch screen until you end it.
In the meantime, you won't be able to access the menu of the watch or other features as this would need you to end the workout first."
Not the answer Id hoped for but its a great smartwatch & absolutely superb compared to my Garmin Fenix 6X which I sold to get the GT3 Pro. So looks like Ill have to put up with it...
