I don't like playing with a phone in my pocket. Is there a way you can use the tags paired through an android wear os watch? I have a Samsung galaxy watch 4.

Hi Cindy, my understanding is thatthis is no longer true. The Galaxy smart watches can read NFC tags. When will this be added to the Samsung Galaxy watch app? I bought the tags thinking I could use with my watch, but doesn't work. Sort of defeats the purpose for me.
Thanks, Angus.

Great question. Thanks for asking. At this time all NFC-equipped smartwatches (including Samsung's Galaxy watches) can only act as passive NFC transmitters. None of them are capable of scanning NFC tags. If/when watch manufacturers add tag reading capability, we'll be sure to support it in Golf Pad. Your best option is to use Stand Alone mode wiht your watch so you don't have to keep the phone in your pocket during the round. Learn more about that feature here.
