Well, let me tell ya, if ya’re tryin’ to use the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro with an iPhone, I’ve got some bad news for ya. It ain’t gonna work. Yup, the folks over at Samsung, they decided that their newer watches just ain’t gonna play nice with iPhones. If you’ve got one of those fancy iPhones and you’re hopin’ to pair it with the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, ya might as well save yourself the trouble and move on to somethin’ else.
Now, I know some folks might be wonderin’, “Why is that?” Well, let me explain it in simple terms. The Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, along with its cousin the Galaxy Watch 4, runs on this new thing called Wear OS 3. It’s a system built with the help of Google and Samsung, and it’s designed to work best with Android phones. When Samsung made this change, they basically left iOS, Apple’s operating system, in the dust. So, all the Galaxy Watch models from the 4 and 5 series don’t work with iPhones no more. They just won’t connect, no matter what you try.
Before, if you had an older Samsung Galaxy Watch, like the Galaxy Watch 3, or the Watch Active and Active 2, those worked just fine with iPhones. But with the new models, they’ve made sure they’re focused on Android. So, if you’re holding on to your iPhone, it’s best you start thinkin’ about switchin’ to an Apple Watch. Trust me, it’s just easier that way.
And if you’re wondering, “Why can’t they just make it work?” Well, the folks at Samsung said it’s because there’s just too much difference between the two systems. I reckon it’s like tryin’ to fit a square peg in a round hole. They said they couldn’t give ya the same good experience on iOS as they can on Android. It’s just one of those things, you know?
Now, don’t go thinkin’ all Galaxy Watches are the same. Not every Galaxy Watch will leave you hangin’ like that. If you’ve got a phone that has at least Android 8.0, with a bit of memory (1.5GB or more), and all the right Google services, then you should be good to go. But, if your phone’s a little older or doesn’t meet those requirements, well, that’s another story.
If you’re still wantin’ to use your Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and you’ve got an iPhone, it ain’t gonna happen. You’ll just end up frustrated, trust me on this one. The best advice I can give ya is to stick with what works. An Apple Watch is made for iPhones, and you won’t run into all these compatibility issues.
So, to sum it all up: Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and iPhone just don’t mix. It’s like trying to fit a cow into a chicken coop—just doesn’t work. If ya want a smartwatch that’ll pair with your iPhone, go for the Apple Watch, and save yourself some heartache.
Hope this helps clear things up for ya!
