How to use Galaxy Watch Active without a phone or mobile device

If you have no smartphone to connect your Galaxy Watch Active to, or if you don’t intend to use it with your phone for whatever reason, it can be done relatively easily. In this offline mode, there are some features that you’ll miss out such as notifications, calendars, and so on. Just remember, this smartwatch is mainly designed to work with a Samsung mobile device (although third party phones also work fine). If you want to get all the benefits of your smartwatch, we suggest that you pair it with a phone.
