Can you answer calls from the watch if it is connected to your iphone

No, this watch serves as a display and control unit for fitness apps. It is very light and comfortable. I use it for running mainly, but also working out and biking.

Nope. All you can do is track your fitness while you're working out and see the time when you're not.

I never tried. Sorry but this watch is terrible. It fogs up when I run. Water gets in in shower. Battery average life is 5 days. I buy batteries on amazon every month for three months. I don't know why I keep watch but it does sync with phone well. Tried to return and amazon rejected request based on battery life not a good enough excuse. Echo website says 6month heavy battery usage but my average id 5 days. Easy to change battery without tools but getting tired. Thanks. Wait for another option. Good day. Mc

No this links with your phone allowing you to control certain functions of your smartphone, when you recieve a call it will be displayed on the watchface and then you can choose to accept it and answer it on your phone or bluetooth, or reject it and send a prepared text message from the watch

If Verizon does have Sim cards you will have to get a plan with a phone company that has them if u want to use the watch as a stand alone phone. But if u get a Sim card it's as easy as taking it out one phone and putting it in the watch

No. I couldn't get the app that they recommended to use for iPhones to even work with my watch. I was hopeful, but you won't be able to receive notifications on your watch from your phone, ie no text messages on your watch.

Yes. Download you contacts per the manual. Push the big button and say "voice dial." It will beep and then say " call -------." Works great with my iphone

The watch needs to be paired with a phone over bluetooth to work and get data.It doesn't matter what network technology the phone uses, as long as the phone has a data connection to the telecom network and the internet.

Yes, You can. You can also intercept a call ringing on your cell phone if you prefer to answer it there.

yes it does. I know several people who bought this watch and have the iphone only.

It will not read the messages aloud to you(like using text to speech) but it will display the message. You can send a text using S Voice to do speech to text which works fairly well or you can use predetermined replies that you can add your own canned replies to and then you may select one of those to send as a text. You cannot currently type a reply on the watch. I find that if you have some good canned replies that it is typically all you need for a quick reply.

No Dick Tracy action here. When a call comes in, that info appears on the Pebble. You can accept/reject the call on the Pebble. But the watch has no microphone, so conversations still require the phone. For iPhone, a search on PEBBLE in the App Store yields relevant apps. They include one which allows you to use the watch to snap pics. Another amazingly provides turn by turn directions, via vibrations as you walk, telling you to turn left or right. The watch will always show the time, regardless of iPhone location. The rest is best explained by example. My chosen watchface/app = Futura, which shows time, Thu Dec 26, 39, and a weather icon (today, sunny & clear). I can move around my house, with the iPhone on another level/floor, risking the loss of only the weather info. Some days, I can roam around floor to floor, without loss of connection to the phone. Other days, I'm not so fortunate. Haven't figured out the precise real-world range yet. In any event, at worst, the icon and temp will disappear. When I'm back in range, that info soon reappears without any assistance on my part. FYI: I invested in a pouch -- which can be worn around the neck, or clipped with the carabiner supplied -- to keep the phone at hand, even when I have no pockets. Search here for neck-strap pouch iphone carabiner for options. Range from $6 to under $30. Some very highly rated. (As a woman, not all my clothing includes pockets. I've since cured that, via men's cargo sweats and the like for around the house. Turns out, they fit great and are of much higher quality that similar women's clothing. Go figure.)

yes. If you purchase the Smart Phone Call Handling App, the watch works in conjunction with your bluetooth ear piece and your phone. When you recieve a call, you are notified on the watch, ( with the app, you get an option of answer or reject w/message) and if you want to take the phone call, you accept on the watch, then it will automatically connect via your bluetooth ear piece.

Why would you need to do that? The watch only speaks the hour if you touch the button to hear what time it is.

Yes, you can also sync your headphones to the watch itself. Infact you can transfer music onto the watch itself, and run without your phone, it will let you listen to the music and track your steps and heart rate. However, if you are not semi-near your phone it will not receive phone calls or notifications.

I used it with my iPhone , I have a android and I was able to connect it but I used it with my iPhone before I sent it back . It was great for short conversations but I found myself not wearing my more expensive watches

Yes. I just called customer service regarding my watch charger and they were very helpful. Even gave me an expedited way to get it serviced.

There is no way to do that on the watch - once you transfer to Garmin Connect, you could see it.

Sorry, I don't know. I bought this watch years ago and it did not have that feature then.
