I enabled all the settings as mentioned by this guide:
I just can’t find the Enable Debugging over Bluetooth on my phone. (step 4)
It is mentioned here as well:
Should it really be this lousy?
My devices:
Galaxy Watch 4 Classic
Galaxy S21 Ultra
I just can’t find the Enable Debugging over Bluetooth on my phone. (step 4)
It is mentioned here as well:
@ben_izi this manual is misleading.
Debugging should be enabled on the watch, not on the phone.
You might want to have a look at this thread. It’s how I managed to connect the watch to WFS - using WiFi debugging.
Have a look at the linked post and one a couple after it which does away with the need to download Android studio tools.
Hope it helps.
Thanks for replying.
Yes, actually I did it last night via wifi but had to restart all my devices after enabling dev mod.
I have development background and I did work on iOS and WatchOs app before. These sort of nonsenses are a big deterrent for developer community. Clearly it’s been a couple of months now yet Samsung didn’t bother debug the issue or update documentations accordingly.

Welcome @gwical . I think this works better these days . I have never used the console . Sometimes it take a couple of goes . The WiFi connection drops quite quickly on the watches these days .
