Lost vivoactive 3 smart watch

Anyway to locate a lost watch.

It is not connected so the find device on the phone will not work.

    Lost in your home or lost out in the woods? At home you could probably walk around and check if you get a connection. Outdoors you can backtrack the route from when you lost it and see when it connects.

    Many thanks for responding.

    I am thinking it must be in the home.

    I am pressing Find My Device but the message Device Not Connected is coming up.

    It will obviously be turned off now so will presumably not connect just by pressing Find My Device on the phone.

    On my 945 LTE the find my device feature will cause the watch to make a ring tone (not very loud), flash the screen, and vibrate.

    Of course, the watch needs to be within BT range (typically about 9 or 10 meters). So, if your watch is stuck in a drawer, far away, or powered off, this won't work. As e7andy mentioned, I would walk around to every area of your house, then try again.
