- The One UI 5 Watch beta offers the ability to quickly transfer your watch to a new phone.
- This feature allows you to transfer to a new phone without resetting the watch first.
- We hope this feature comes to Wear OS 4 and the Pixel Watch too.
Google announced Wear OS 4 last month, confirming several key features. But the most notable addition is backup and restore support, allowing you to back up your watch or copy data from an old watch to a new one. This doesn’t seem like the best solution if you just want to pair your watch to a new phone without resetting the wearable.
Now, a Galaxy Watch owner running the One UI 5 Watch beta has confirmed via Reddit that the software indeed lets you transfer your watch to a new phone without resetting the watch.
