Sweliv for Wear OS
Your Galaxy Watch or Pixel Watch records the activity and streams it live on its own: through the phone's Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or LTE.
Before anything else: you need an Android phone with Sweliv, a Wear OS watch only pairs with Android. Samsung watches on Tizen (Galaxy Watch 3 and older) do not run Wear OS: they are not compatible.
Getting started
- 1
Install Sweliv on the watch
From your watch's Play Store. Or from the phone: Settings, Activity and devices, Connect an app, Wear OS, then Install on my watch. The Play Store opens on your wrist.
- 2
Open it near the phone
With your phone nearby, open Sweliv on the watch: it links to your account by itself.
- 3
Allow access
On the first start, allow the requested access (sensors, location, physical activity): without it, no heart rate or track.
- 4
Start your session
From the watch: the live starts by itself.
What it does
Live
Live heart rate, distance and time from your wrist.
Without the phone
On an LTE watch, the live keeps going even if the phone stays in the locker.
Your week on your wrist
Your activities of the week and their comments show on the watch.
Bluetooth sensors
A heart-rate strap or a power meter connects straight to the watch.
Questions
Which watches are compatible?
Watches on Wear OS 3 or later: Galaxy Watch 4 and newer, Pixel Watch and other recent Wear OS watches. Galaxy Watch 3 and older run Tizen and are not compatible.
What about an iPhone?
A Wear OS watch only pairs with an Android phone. On iPhone, Sweliv has its Apple Watch app.
The watch does not link by itself?
Open Sweliv on the watch with the phone nearby. If nothing happens, type the code the watch shows into the app: Settings, Activity and devices, Connect an app, Wear OS.
Who sees my live?
On the watch, two switches: Live and Location, both on by default. Turn Location off to stream your time, distance and heart rate with no point on the map. The rest is set in the app.
Do my sessions go to Health Connect?
Yes, if you allowed it on the Health Connect page of the app: watch sessions land there at the end, like phone ones.
