Can You Use Galaxy Watch in standalone mode without a phone?
Yes! You can use it in standalone mode as long as you have a newer smartwatch running Tizen 4 or higher. In this mode, you can leave your phone behind after starting a round of golf. Check rangefinder distance, track shot on watch, and change current hole. When your score comes back within range, it syncs to your phone
To start using the standalone mode, make sure you have the latest version of the Golf Pad phone app 15.0 or later and the watch app 4.1.1 or later and have GPS enabled in the watch settings. Then enable ‘Standalone’ mode in Golf Pad Preferences/Smartwatch Sync.
While the watch and phone are connected, you can start the round, check the rangefinder distance from the watch, and then put the phone away. If you encounter any problems, review the troubleshooting steps. For maximum accuracy, disconnect your phone and watch after starting around. We recommend using Airplane mode on your watch, but you can also disable Bluetooth on both devices.
Note: Turn off airplane mode on your watch and wait for the watch to connect to your phone before completing the round in the phone app. Required for correct synchronization of data.
The standalone feature is available on Tizen 4 and later devices such as Galaxy Watch Active 2. Connected mode is available for both current and previous Tizen smartwatches.
Smartwatch sync is part of the Golf Pad Premium upgrade and several other features such as expanded stats and handicap scores.
