Today we are going to teach you a trick to get a greater connection range on the Apple Watch. A good way to get a little further away from the iPhone without worrying that the connection with the watch will be lost.
If you have an Apple Watch , surely you have noticed that many times, when we move a little away from the iPhone , we lose the connection. Don't worry, it's totally normal, and that's why we're here. We are going to teach you a little trick with which we are going to be able to gain a little more range.
I'm sure you already know that your Apple Watch needs to be connected to your Bluetooth in order to work. But it's not entirely true, so don't miss anything.
How to get more connection range on Apple Watch
As we have mentioned, the Apple Watch needs Bluetooth to work. But there is also an option that is somewhat hidden, with which we can also have a connection while connected to Wifi .
So, we're going to focus on this one. To do this, we go to the clock settings and look for the "Wifi" tab. Here we can activate or deactivate this function.
Turn Wi-Fi on or off
We can also do it from the main screen, sliding the screen up. The fact is that this Wifi connection works when the iPhone is far away and cannot connect via Bluetooth. In this case, the watch connects to this Wi-Fi network, as long as the iPhone was previously connected when it was linked.
When connected to the Wi-Fi network , the watch can do exactly the same thing as if we were connected to the iPhone .Undoubtedly a marvel and a breakthrough in terms of smart watches. Of course, this feature so is only available on Watch Series 3 and Series 4 onwards. And to work you need WatchOS 5 onwards.
As Apple says on its website, the Apple Watch will connect to a Wi-Fi network whenever possible, because that way it will save battery.
So if you have an Apple Watch that meets these characteristics, don't hesitate to use this function, because your watch will be even more independent.
