Google has announced a new feature for Wear OS that will allow users to connect their smartwatch to a new phone without having to perform a factory reset. This is a major improvement over the current process, which requires users to erase all of their data and settings on their watch before they can pair it with a new device.
The new feature will be available in the upcoming Wear OS 4 update, which is expected to be released in the coming months. To use the feature, users will simply need to open the Wear OS app on their new phone and follow the on-screen instructions. The app will automatically detect the watch and prompt the user to pair it.
The ability to connect to a new phone without resetting the watch is a major convenience for users who switch phones frequently. It also makes it easier for users to troubleshoot problems with their watches, as they can simply pair the watch with a different phone to rule out any issues with their original device.
In addition to the new connection feature, Wear OS 4 will also bring a number of other improvements, including:
Improved battery life
New watch faces
New apps and features
Wear OS 4 is a major update that will make smartwatches more user-friendly and powerful. The ability to connect to a new phone without resetting the watch is a welcome addition that will make it easier for users to get the most out of their smartwatches.

Convenience: Users can now switch phones without having to erase their watch data.
