Watch not connected to phone for some reason

[ssledoux]

I'm not really using my watch daily since I'm home, but I put it on yesterday because I was leaving the house, and from what I can tell, it seems to be connected to my phone just fine when I'm home on wifi, but as soon as I turn off the wifi, I get the red battery-looking thing with the line through it showing that I'm not connected. My bluetooth on my phone shows it as not connected, but when I open the watch app, it shows it as paired.

Am I gonna have to unpair it, or is there another, ANY other, fix?

I had a similar issue. It turned out that my daughter had turned off Bluetooth on the watch. I unpaired and repaired and then it happened again so I spent done time hunting it down.

At least in my case, that’s what happened. I had to turn it back on from settings in the watch, not the phone.

Well, bluetooth is not off, and it just searches and searches for the phone, even though the phone bluetooth is on also.

Turned bluetooth off on both, then back on on the phone, then back on on the watch and it's connected.
