How To Connect Oraimo Watch ER To Phone
The initial step is to power on the watch. The Watch ER is equipped with two buttons; to turn it on, press hold the button at the top for a few seconds. Upon activation, a welcome message will appear. Swipe right and select your preferred language. Subsequently, a QR code will be displayed on the watch screen. When this happens, set the watch aside and pick up your phone.
On your phone, enable location, Bluetooth, and data. Scan the QR code using your phone’s camera or a QR code scanner. After scanning, you’ll receive a URL leading to either the Play Store or the App Store, directing you to download the Oraimo Health app. Launch the app and grant all necessary permissions for optimal functionality.
You will be directed to a page with three options: login, enter email, or visitor’s mode. If the watch and phone are yours, register and log in. For a quick test run, choose the visitor’s mode. Following this, a new page will prompt you to answer some basic questions for accurate fitness results.
Next, you’ll reach the device bind page, offering two options: bind with a QR code or with Bluetooth. In this guide, we’ll use Bluetooth to sync the watch with the phone. After selecting Bluetooth, you’ll see a list of Oraimo watches compatible with the app. Scroll down and choose the Oraimo Watch ER. Grant all necessary permissions and wait a few seconds for the app to locate the watch.
Once the watch’s name appears on your phone screen, select it. You’ll receive a message on the watch asking for pairing confirmation; choose to confirm and wait for the successful binding notification on both the watch and smartphone.
To enable notification messages, grant notification permission. The app may also request access to other features, such as call logs; grant these permissions for full access to the watch features. That’s all on how to connect the Oraimo Watch ER to the phone. The Oraimo health app has a friendly user interface so you shouldn’t have any issue finding your way on the app.
How To Change Watch Face
The Watch ER offers an extensive collection of over a hundred watch faces, providing you with the freedom to choose the one that best suits your style. If the default watch face doesn’t appeal to you, changing it is a straightforward process. Follow these simple steps:
- On the app preview page, locate the icons below, and select the third option, which is the “Device” option.
- In the top right corner, you’ll find a green icon. Click on this icon, and it will lead you to the dial center along with other settings.
- On this page, you can browse through the available dial faces for your watch. Simply choose the watch face that appeals to you and click on “Apply.”
- If none of the pre-set watch faces catch your eye and you’d like to customize your own, follow these steps:
- Select the “Dial Settings,” which will redirect you to the dial market featuring a variety of watch faces.
- Scroll down until you find the watch face that resonates with your preferences.
- Select your preferred watch face, and wait for the app to synchronize it with the watch face.
- Once the synchronization is complete, you’ll have your desired watch face displayed on your smartwatch. Enjoy the personalized touch!
How To Set Up Wireless Calling On The Oraimo Watch ER
One of the key features of the Watch ER is the ability to directly make, receive, and reject calls. With this, you can make calls directly on the watch without reaching for your phone. To do this, go to the app preview page, and select the third option below. This will take you to the Device page; select the green icon at the top right corner; this will take you to the settings page. Next, select Bluetooth to call; this will take you to a new page where you get four options, one of the options is ‘Enable Bluetooth to call’.
Select this option, next, select ‘Go to setup’; this will take you to the Bluetooth-paired page. Scroll down to see if the Watch ER is connected to your phone. If not connected, scan for the watch and connect it to your phone. Once it’s connected, select the gear icon beside the watch name and toggle on the ‘call option’. If the call option isn’t turned on, you won’t be able to use your phone to make calls. Now pick up the watch, swipe down, and make sure the call icon is on.
