How to Set Up Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 (Step-by-Step for Beginners)

[@Kristina-gz2wu]

Several of the "how to set up" videos I've already watched start where yours ended, so thank you, thank you, thank you, for having an actual how to set up video, this was very helpful, Chef's kiss.

[@jrenderby]

Thank you, yours was the only one that helped me sync my Galaxy watch with Pixel 9 pro. Great job of explaining the steps!

[@graywoulf]

Great tutorial. I just ordered one of these watches. I hope that the setup goes as smooth on my Motorola phone as it did on your Samsung phone. This new watch is an upgrade to my Watch Active 2 watch. I am glad to get back to an Android based watch.

[@cassaundra8161]

Thank you! I followed along right with you with my watch!

[@wearablewhisperer]

You’re welcome 😊

[@broinsocali]

This was the easiest setup and pairing the wearable app does everything for you.

[@richardmann5049]

Great tutorial. Thanks.

Galaxy watch 4 review please

[@Drrck11]

Good thorough tutorial. Guess I should upgrade from my Active 2 watch. 👍🏽

[@wearablewhisperer]

Thanks for the kind words 🙏😊

I have a galaxy 5 watch already in my wearable app, I now have my new galaxy 6 lying next to my phone. When I open the app, it only shows the galaxy 5 watch. It does not see the new galaxy 6? Even if I try "new watch setup"? How do I get the Wearable app to recognize the new galaxy 6?

[@jahlil2nyc]

Unpair the watch 5 and forget it in blue-tooth settings

[@n64central]

Thanks for the Great set up vid as always. I want to upgrade off my Fitbit charge 5. Does Galaxy watches work well on Apple phones? Or should I look towards an Apple Watch

[@wearablewhisperer]

The last 3 years of Galaxy watches (4,5,6) are only compatible with Android phones (won’t work with iPhones). I do usually recommend an Apple Watch for iPhone users. I would recommend waiting to upgrade just a bit longer though. Apple will definitely announce a new watch or two in early September. I’ll be buying the new watch(es) and will do my usual unboxing, setup, review, and comparison videos and I plan to do a “best Apple Watch” video this year as well. Also, I don’t have any inside information, but it is possible that fitbit could announce a new charge 6 before the end of August. That might not be the case if Google (who now owns fitbit) has decided to do something different with the release schedule this year, but I would definitely recommend waiting a few more weeks to see what new wearables are announced (then older versions should be discounted as well). Stay tuned… 😊

Can you help please? I try to set up my phone but it says "This account already exists on your device" when I put in my gmail address. I've watched videos and they all tell me to remove my gmail account from my phone. I'm not prepared to do that. Is there another solution?

[@mohlomphehi]

I am considering buying the watch but have heard a lot of complaints about it being region locked. As a person that travels a lot, how big a problem is this?

[@timothycook1119]

I have heard the same complaint. Just make sure the description states the location before you purchase the watch.

[@stewartgrey2375]

Question: once my watch is set up on Galaxy Wearable, do I also need to add it to the Wear OS app? I'm trying to add a watch face to my 6 Classic, but I get a device not compatible error when I choose the watch face in the Google Play store. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

[@wearablewhisperer]

You shouldn’t have to do anything with the wear OS app. Are you accessing the Google Play store on your phone? If so, can you try accessing it on your watch? That’s what worked for me for the watch face I’m using.

[@WhiteKitta]

SO I am about to order this watch but I need to know if this also comes with a web Dashboard and not just a cell phone dashboard, because I really hate looking at a small Cell phone screen I want to be able to check on things on my Pc screen instate ....I am actually going to sell my Fitbit watch because Fitbit (aka Google) decided to get rid of their Web Dashboard and so I no longer want that watch because of that.....could you please tell me because when I google for an answer I don't get any info on that.

[@wearablewhisperer]

If Samsung has a web dashboard for their wearables, I am not aware of it…

[@nikilarocque396]

the app won't pick up my watch Bluetooth but it says on the help I have to turn it on thru settings to connect but I can't get to the setting cause it won't go passed the beginning where you choose the language etc plz help

[@wearablewhisperer]

Is your phone’s Bluetooth on?

[@omersuliman3115]

[@mdiakonu]

What if you dont have a samsung? Phone

[@Befeared12]

It might work if you have a Google pixel also

[@cesarjosueespinosa8424]

Tap hold the wear icon until it goes to the watch face it works.

[@prat.hletics]

Cannot copy google account from Realme Phones. Please help

[@mduduzimabaso3344]

How do i connect with my A73 Samsung?

[@wearablewhisperer]

Did you try to follow the steps in this video and it didn’t work?

[@mduduzimabaso3344]

Yes and it did not work

😢en français s, il vous plait merci.

[@tiffanykendall6137]

This is not how my watch looked when I turned it on. My watch asked me for language, and then asks for my country or region. United States doesn't show up. At all. What am I doing wrong?

[@wearablewhisperer]

Where did you purchase the watch from?

[@tiffanykendall6137]

I purchased it off of Amazon. It shipped to Michigan from Oregon. It was crazy. The Samsung helpline got it sorted. That wasn't easy. The rest of your tutorial was incredibly helpful for the rest of the setup once I got that part taken care of.

[@wearablewhisperer]

So glad you got it sorted and my video helped you after 😊

[@majorbrighton]

Imagine how disappointed I am. I’m trying to install my new watch too and am told to connect to my mobile. Yet I see no help for my Huawei or as you stated at the start “other” smartphones? There must be a high % of people with other makes of Mobil’s. Why do I have to buy a watch and get it home, before being informed that there really is no clear installation instructions for most other Mobil’s? So is this good marketing, like Apple, they cut out all other customers? Their was no mention of this online at the store either.

[@wearablewhisperer]

Is the Galaxy wearable app not in your Google Play Store?
