Could somebody please help me about making a calendar entry? I feel pretty stupid about this whole thing, I can say to Moto 360 "open calendar app but it only seems to open it on my phone". Is it possible to say make an appointment for Wednesday the 25th? Seems like I have no problems with anything else like sending text messages and getting directions but this is driving me crazy. Thanks for any input you can give me.
I haven't been able to figure this out either.

Set reminders
I've been able to set "reminders" that only exist under the Google Now home screen. Try this voice command: "Add reminder. Whatever whatever whatever at 9am tomorrow." I've used the "Add reminder" command quite often and it works very well.

You can just say "remind me to take out the trash tonight".
Unfortunately I need calendar items and it seems, inexplicably, Google Wear doesn't support it.
What about these:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kodeglam.calendarwear&hl=en
https://ifttt.com/connect/google_calendar/android_wear
no luck.
No Luck this is a bummer. I would like to just add a calendar meeting. Just by saying add calendar event tomorrow 9am meet with John Doe.

This is definitely a bummer like you said, but now I'm just using "add a reminder" hoping that the next version of android Google L will do the job.
Sadly, Android Wear is more of an extension of Google Now, than an extension of the Android phone...
It'll get better, though
I can't even get it to set a reminder. It tries to save and says "Sorry that didn't work. Try again"

Moto 360 degrading over time

After 3 weeks with my Moto 360 I just started having problems of all sorts, including no longer being able to set a reminder. I do everything the same as I've effortlessly done over the last 3 weeks ... "Ok, Google ... Remind me to <blah blah>" and it just shows a Google search of a webpage I can open on my phone. Reminders have worked dozens upon dozens of times over the last 3 weeks, and now not at all.
I've uninstalled Android Wear on my phone, restarted, Reset device on my watch, waited a long time, followed the on-watch prompts to reinstall Android Wear, re-paired Bluetooth, and so on. A few times now. Same thing - super basic smartwatch functionality of my Moto 360 has spontaneously stopped working over the last couple of days.
If I say "Ok, Google ... Remind me." and pause my watch will display a prompt that says "About what?" and if I say something it just says it can't reach Google at the moment. But it can! All my notifications from my phone are still working, and if I ask a random question ("Ok, Google ... who is the Prime Minister of Canada?") it pops up a response just fine. It's just all the really useful and core smartwatch stuff that has been hosed.
It started with the time being incorrect on my watch, whilst it remains totally correct on my phone. I've had to restart my watch multiple times per day to get the time set correctly, I've Reset device several times now, etc.
Overall, my Moto 360 experience is severely degrading over time. :crying:

What kind of phone? Is it at least android 4.3?
used to work fine
Yes, I have a stock Samsung Galaxy S4 with 4.4.2. And as mentioned, Android Wear and my Moto 360 have been working great for me for the last few weeks then all of a sudden - wrong time. After a bunch of complete wipes / reinstalls AND calls to Motorola support just to be sure and also to loop them in on problems, my AW experience continues to get worse.
However, it appears I'm not unique in this. I just checked the comments on Google Play for the Android Wear app and it looks like a lot of people are having similar issues with the October 6th update - incorrect time, inability to set reminders anymore, etc. Let's hope Google and/or Motorola read and respond and fix the problems ASAP!

Which versions of AW are you on? I'm still on 1.01.
Any solution for the problem? It's really annoying, someone??

Hiya, it seems the reminder functionality uses Google Now, so if you've disabled Google Now on your phone, it'll tell you that it can't make new appointments every time you try...
You can add reminder to Google Now remind section not on Google Calendar.
If you want add entry in your Google Calendar you can use an App named "Calengoo".
With this app you can add calendar entry and also entry in your Google task.
With this app you can also dismiss or snooze Calendar Event when is send to Wear device.
I just received my MOTO 360 today and it has been able to send text messages then suddenly when dictating a text in Google Now on the watch it says that it "Can't Connect to Google at the Moment."
I have the newest software update (KGW42 R 4.4W.1) on the watch and I have done multiple factory resets to no avail. I have also switched the phone from Hello SMS to Google Hangouts and that has not helped.
It appears to involve any Google Now command like reminders. However, I can search the web fine.
I am running a Nexus 5 Unlocked with 4.4.4.
Any help would be appreciated. I'd like to get this resolved.
I'm having the exact same issue... and I just bought my Moto360 today as well. I got it to work for a few minutes then it disapeared again. Would not suprise me if this is an outage on google's side.... at least I hope it is. If I try any google voice action it opens a seach of that term instead of the action, so I have searched for "set an alarm for 9am" about a hundred times.

Yes. Any time I use a voice action to, let's say set a reminder, I get the same error message. Just as the text message. I do hope this is a problem on Google's side. Web searches appear to be working fine as you said.
Yes I am having the same issue. I got the watch yesterday night played with it till battery died. Then i charged it fully, and played with it and used it at work today. I used google commands like "remind me ..." and "set timer for ..." about 16 hours ago with no problem. Now all of a sudden for the past 7 hours I always goes to google search when i make those same commands. It is very frustrating however i am happy i am not the only one experiencing this.
Just wiped my 360 and paired it with my Nexus 5 instead of my MotoX, same exact issue. Anyone who has had one of these things for more then 12 hours had this issue tonight?
It's a problem with the Wear app that was updated by Google today. I'm sure they'll have another update that fixes what they broke by tomorrow.
Glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue... It's been driving me crazy I've been trying everything to fix it!
I was in tears thinking i got a lemon
Im glad im not the only one.. The 360 was launched here in India and i was quick to go and order before it went out of stock. I turned it on, charged it and updated it. Was trying all the voice commands and all it kept doing was a google search.. Hopefully an update will come soon enough.:fingers-crossed:
I've had my 360 for over week with no issues giving voice commands (e.g. remind me to xxxx) however just this morning, I am having the same problems as described. The weird thing is, my android wear app hasn't been updated (I've checked the version number) so that can't be the cause.
This leads me to believe its a server side issue.... hopefully...
This morning it seemed like the issue may have been resolved, not sure if anyone else can report the same.
^^^ I can report the same. The issues seem to be worked out. I will make not and post if i run into any other issues while i check it now.
Moto X pure here. Wasn't having this issue and now it suddenly popped up
I'm not sure if this is from the last update or not but I cant send a text message using the watch. It comes up, says it sending, then it says "message sent" but when I look on my phone, I don't see massage that was sent. I'm using Google hangout out app for text.
I have reset the watch and still no luck.
Thoughts?
I think this is happening for me as well. I'm on att with nexus 5.
Hummm....Maybe it after this last update?
Yeah it definitely was after the last update.
Are you using google hangout?
Yes I'm.
Its weird, it freezes my phone when I send a text. I have hit the "home" button to unfreeze it. Does this happen to you? I tried to uninstall the update but it didnt help. I even tried a different launcher instead of NOVA and still happens.
i think my next step it rest the phone, but that is such a pain!
anyone else having these issues?
Me too here. Definitely after the update. It doesn't let me reply by voice. It sucks!

Moto 360 and S3, Me Too...
I have just spent the most frustrating 2 days trying to get my wife's Moto 360 to send text messages.....it wont. All I get is to be told to use the phone... which loses the point of getting her the watch in the first place. It will send e-mails, but wont reply to them, it recieves texts and emails OK... and everything else works fine... I've tried everything I could think of, uninstalling, reinstalling, wiping phone cache etc, tried Hangouts, but nothing seems to work. I'm left thinking that maybe it could be the S3 operating system that is somehow blocking this? ...or maybe the standard messaging app on the Galaxy? if that's the case, is there an alternative ......that works properly! ? or could it be the mobile provider (it's 3).....or is this a UK thing?
And finally....HELP, HELP !!!!
mine works even after latest update... reply whatsapp.. but currently im looking for some kind of keyboard.. any suggestion?
My Moto 360 showed me incoming facebook messages no problem, but I have never once seen one on my Huawei watch. I've tried resyncing the apps, re-pairing the watch, enabling all permissions for all apps involved, everything I can think of. Anyone have this problem and solve it?

I just got an original Huawei watch yesterday (on sale, Amazon), and everything seems to be working as it should be except Facebook Messenger. After much tinkering, I am able to receive messages occasionally (not every one), but my only option to reply is a thumbs up. I can't send out on Messenger at all. Is this just the Huawei watch, or is it an AW 2.0 problem? I really want AW 2.0, but not being able to use messenger is a deal breaker for me. I am thinking of returning the watch, but for what? If the other AW 2.0 watches have the same problem, there's little point. Thanks for any help you can give me.

When I created this post, I was on Wear 1.5. Since 2.0, the problems have been fixed for me. I get notifications no problem.
Swipe up on the thumbs up to get more options. Select voice if you want to reply. Even though it says voice, you will be given the option to use the keyboard to respond as well.
Messenger on Huawei watch
I've just got an original Huawei watch and I'm using it with a Umi Super . Having downloaded the Facebook messenger app, when I open it on the phone I get a message saying "To use messenger, install the app on your phone first".
I already have messenger installed on my phone and no matter how many times I uninstall/reinstall. This is I get.
Has anyone else had this? Or have any ideas how to solve it?
Thanks
Same
I have exactly the same problem
I was on latest AW 2 preview version and then updated to AW2 version via OTA received on watch. The notifications worked for few times and then stopped completely. I tried rebooting the watch, phone (honor 7) but nothing changed. I tried uninstalling and installing the android wear app but still nothing changed. I tried restoring and adding watch again to phone but still nothing happened. I even did clean install of AW 2 (wiping the partition and sideloading the firmware) but still nothing changed. Is it happening for anybody else or does anybody has solution to fix it. I suspect it has something to do with the AW app. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I had that happen yesterday on another watch still on 1.5. It resolved after rebooting my phone (S7e). So it's not just 2.0
Notifications have started to come theough now on my watch. Only thing that I changed was that I gave AW app 'priority display' permission under Notifications
I'm getting gmail and text notifications, but not my exchange email. High priority didn't help me. Even adding my exchange email to the gmail app didn't work.
it is a bug and solved by accident
it is a bug and solved by accident for me, just receive a call while you are connecting your watch to your smartphone and answer using the watch and talk using the watch.
then after closing the line using the watch also, all notifications will appear

Nice to see representation from Huawei.
Ive ordered mine getting it after few days from now, hope everything will be gone smooth without problems..
I no longer get any notifications after upgrading to 2.0. Only the call in comes thru.
Resetting my watch and rebooting my phone did not help either.

Have you tried a different watchface? I'm using WatchR and don't have a problem with notifications. I have the paid version so I'm not sure if the free version will work. I get both a full screen notification as well as a colored circle at the bottom with the number of notifications.

I'm using the stock watch faces - and this coloured circle you mention intrigues me. I miss having the notification at the bottom of the screen to pull up.
My notification are coming through - but I have no way of knowing there's a notification unless I swipe up to check. Is this the same for everyone else? No actual visible notification unless swiping up? I've turned on 'High' notification previews, but that's also not really what I want as I then lose the watch face.

Originally I was quite impressed for Huawei to have a presence here - went to try the chat about my issue with notifications and was told 'ask Google'. Super.
Huawei: Since this is an Android-related issues, please contact the local support for Android Wear, as they are the developers of the software and best equipped to offer you assistance with this.
Me: Who's the local support for Android? You mean Google?
Huawei: Yes.
So... anyone got Sundar Pichai's contact info? lol
The colored dot only shows with special AW 2.0 optimized watch faces and AFAIK, none if the stock HW 1 watch faces.

The biggest problem I have is that they disappear after swiping through them. So say you get a Facebook notification & text. If the text is the second notification & you swipe past Facebook, you don't get to go back. With the previous AW version you could swipe as much as you like until you dismissed them or read them, etc. Bugs the hell out of me with 2.0 when it all disappears.

Notification
Hi, found this forum and wanted to ask if anyone having the same issue.
mine is lte.. before buying this watch i read online says that all notification from phone will receive without any bluetooth connection, i was interested on it.
eventually i bought the watch and all set up, but found out that the notification sometime receive and sometime not. So i realise the notif will receive when the phone is on then all notification will be received, but when phone is screen off / stand by mode all notification can't receive.
anybody having this issue? maybe there is some setting that has to be set so when you leave the phone all notif can be receive on watch?
and as i can see Huawei is in this forum, it will be great if you can assist on this issue.
thank you.
