Question:

Galaxy device does not connect to Watch 4,5 (with Wear OS). What should I do?

Answer:

There might be an issue with the Bluetooth connection permission in the system app's settings. Ensure that all necessary permissions for Bluetooth connection (BLUETOOTH_CONNECT) are enabled in the Google Play Services settings.

Path: Settings > Apps > System App > Permissions > Allow all necessary permissions under 'Not Allowed' list.
