Function Description

The Movado Connect 2.0 is a smartwatch designed to integrate seamlessly with your smartphone, offering a range of functionalities from notifications and fitness tracking to Google Assistant access and mobile payments. It runs on Wear OS by Google, making it compatible with both Android and iOS devices. The smartwatch allows users to stay connected, manage their daily tasks, monitor their health, and access various apps directly from their wrist.

Usage Features

General Setup & App:

To begin using your Movado Connect 2.0, you'll need to download the Wear OS by Google app on your smartphone. For iOS users, this is available on the App Store®, and for Android users, it's on the Google Play store. The smartwatch is compatible with Android 4.4+ (excluding Go edition) or iOS 12, and requires Bluetooth® Smart-enabled devices with improved data transfer.

Powering on the smartwatch involves pressing and holding the crown for at least three seconds, or simply connecting it to the charger. To power off, if the display is on, press the crown to enter the app menu, then navigate to Settings > System > Power off. Restarting follows a similar path: Settings > System > Restart.

If you need to reset your smartwatch to factory settings, this can be done via the Settings menu by selecting Disconnect & reset. This action will unpair the watch from your phone and erase all stored data, including notifications, fitness data, and installed apps. After a factory reset, you'll need to re-pair the watch with your phone.

The smartwatch's Bluetooth connection range is typically about 10 meters (30 feet), but this can be extended by connecting the watch to a Wi-Fi network. Connecting to Wi-Fi allows your watch to stay synced with your phone even when out of Bluetooth range, enabling notifications and voice search.

Pairing/Syncing:

Pairing the smartwatch with your phone is a straightforward process initiated through the Wear OS by Google app. After turning on your watch and opening the app, you'll follow on-screen instructions to select a language, accept terms of service, and confirm a pairing code displayed on both devices. For iOS, if you're re-pairing after a factory reset, you'll need to select "Pair With New Watch" in the app. Android users can pair multiple watches simultaneously, while iOS users are limited to one watch at a time. It's important to keep the Wear OS by Google app open on your phone to maintain connectivity.

Features:

The Movado Connect 2.0 offers a rich set of features through Wear OS by Google.

  • Google Assistant: You can get quick answers, translate phrases, check stocks, solve math problems, convert units, and find places using voice commands ("Ok Google") or by pressing the crown. To use Google Assistant, your watch needs a Google Account, your phone's language set to English, and an internet connection via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cellular. Hands-free voice detection can be enabled in Settings > Personalization.
  • Notifications: The watch mirrors your phone's notification settings, delivering incoming calls, texts, emails, calendar events, and app notifications. You can read and reply to messages using speech, emoji, handwriting, or prewritten Smart Replies. Notifications cause the watch to vibrate, but it does not produce sounds. You can control which notifications you receive and silence them using "Do Not Disturb" (DND) mode, accessible by swiping down from the watch face.
  • Fitness Tracking: Google Fit allows you to track walks, runs, bike rides, daily steps, set goals, and monitor strength training and heart rate. The smartwatch is equipped with a PPG heart rate tracker. To take a heart rate measurement, wear the watch snugly above your wrist bone. Sleep tracking is available through third-party apps downloaded from the Google Play Store.
  • Music and Media: You can control music, listen to music without your phone, and listen to podcasts directly from your watch. This requires connection to Bluetooth-enabled speakers or headphones. Offline music downloading is available through select media apps.
  • Payments: The smartwatch is equipped with NFC, allowing you to make payments from your wrist using the Google Pay app for Wear OS by Google, after setting up a credit card.
  • GPS: The watch has untethered GPS for location tracking without needing your phone. GPS can be turned off in Settings > Connectivity > Location.
  • Microphone: The smartwatch includes a microphone for activating Google Assistant and performing voice searches. It does not have a speaker.
  • Alarm: An alarm function is available and can be set via the Alarm app in the watch's app menu.
  • Customizable Buttons: The top and bottom pusher buttons can be customized to launch specific watch apps, while the middle button accesses the app menu and, with a long press, Google Assistant.

Maintenance Features

Battery Management:

The battery life of the Movado Connect 2.0 can last up to 24 hours, depending on usage. To maximize battery life, several tips are provided:

  • Watch Face Selection: Animated or bright watch faces consume more battery; choosing simpler faces can extend battery life.
  • Screen Brightness: Lowering the screen brightness significantly saves power.
  • Notifications: Turning off unwanted notifications reduces battery drain.
  • App Uninstallation: Removing unused apps from your watch can also help.
  • Battery Saver: Enabling Battery Saver mode will display only the time and disable notifications, extending battery life for multiple days.
  • Tilt-to-Wake: Turning off the "Tilt-to-Wake" feature prevents the screen from waking up unnecessarily.
  • Always-on Screen: Disabling the "Always-on screen" feature, which keeps the display showing the time, can save substantial battery.
  • Power Saver Tilt: This feature brightens the ambient mode display for time reading without fully waking the CPU, saving power.

Charging:

The smartwatch is charged using the included USB wall charger. Ensure the four magnetic pins on the charger align with those on the back of the watch. A lightning bolt icon on the watch face indicates successful charging. If the charging indicator isn't visible, check the connection, ensure no debris is between the watch and charger, verify the charger is receiving power, and try a different power source. If the watch becomes too hot during charging, it may enter a thermal shutdown mode; remove it, let it cool, then place it back on the charger.

Water and Dust Resistance:

The smartwatch is dust and splash resistant. However, it's recommended to limit exposure to dust and water as certain functions (like the NFC reader) may not work properly when wet. Excessive moisture can also affect the lock screen and touch screen functionality. Always dry the device thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.

Strap Interchangeability:

The straps are interchangeable, allowing for customization. They can be changed by pressing the pins on the inside of the straps.

Account & Device Settings:

Account and device settings are accessed through the Wear OS by Google app on your phone. Your password and email message settings are tied to your Google account. The language of the Wear OS by Google app is determined by your phone's language settings.

Troubleshooting Passcode Lock:

If you forget your smartwatch passcode and are locked out, a factory reset can be performed without accessing the settings menu. This involves a series of power button presses and screen gestures to enter "Fastboot Mode" and then "Recovery mode" to wipe data and reset the device.

Privacy:

Information on how your personal data is used can be found within the Wear OS by Google app by navigating to the Privacy Policy section.

The Movado Connect 2.0 is a versatile and user-friendly smartwatch, designed to enhance daily life through its comprehensive features and seamless integration with your smartphone.
