Noob questions of the day

[gheller]

Hi

Just received my beautiful watch, but pretty frustrated with it's lack of intuitive interface.

If you could bear with me on 2 questions, I would appreciate it.

(1) How to initiate a text message? When I say, "send a text message" in the "Ok Google" prompt, it just takes me to a screen that looks like a web page describing what text messages are.

(2) Using the App ZenWatch Manager, I can choose a watchface and customize it, but there is no prompt to send to the watch or save, etc... How do I get that watchface to my watch?

Thank you so much!

I usually say something like, "Send a text to my wife, I'll be home in an hour." (I have "Wife" set as a nickname for her in my contacts.) If the person has more than one number in your contacts, I think you also have to say something like "Send a text to my wife mobile, ...."

Yeah, I do think you have to specify a contact name before it'll actually start a new text message.

For your second question, it should save your custom watch face automatically, and the ZenWatch Manager watch faces should automatically be pushed to the Android Wear app, which should then be available on the watch. When you choose that watch face, it should reflect what you customized (if not, that's how it worked by default when I first opened ZenWatch Manager).
