Hello! In front of me I have Polar Ignite and I'm going to show you how to enable the
0:12
phone notifications for this watch on the iPhone. Before we start, if you want to receive
0:18
the notifications from your iPhone on your watch, your watch needs to be paired with
0:22
an iPhone via the Polar Flow application. Once the devices are paired, we can continue
0:28
Now we need to make sure that the required permissions are allowed for the application
0:32
to send the notifications to our watch. To do it, first I'm going to turn on Do Not
0:40
Disturb mode because we don't need it, it's going to be in the way. But now, let's open
0:45
the settings on our iPhone. So I'm going to open the settings. In settings, scroll down
0:53
find the list of applications at the bottom and right here on this list find the Polar
0:57
Flow, tap on it and here make sure that the Bluetooth option is enabled. Also tap on
1:03
notifications and make sure that the allow notifications is enabled. Once you're done
1:09
go back to settings, scroll all the way up, tap on Bluetooth, find the Polar Ignite on
1:16
the list of my devices, tap on the info icon next to it and if you see only forget this
1:23
device button, you can go back. But if you see the option that says allow sharing notifications
1:30
or something like that, you need to enable it, it needs to be enabled. But if you see
1:34
only this, we need to go to the Polar Flow application, open it, close this. In the app
1:43
we need to tap on more options icon, then tap on the devices. Now you should see the
1:54
device page for your Polar Ignite and here find the option called phone notifications
2:01
enable it. Then we need to sync our watch with our iPhone. So to do it, simply press
2:08
the back button and press and hold it to enter the pairing mode on your watch and
2:15
it's going to connect to a phone. We'll start syncing and once it's done, the settings should
2:23
be applied. Now we got the pop-up about the permissions for the notifications. As you
2:32
can see, allow it and we can go back to settings, check if the option shows up. So go back
2:40
open this menu again, so find the Polar Ignite, tap on info and as you can see, we have the
2:48
share system notifications option now and make sure that this option is enabled. Okay
2:53
and once it is, the notifications are enabled, you should be able to receive the notifications
3:00
on your watch. So I'm gonna open the Discord on my iPhone, I'm gonna send myself a message
3:06
on Discord and we should get the notification on our watch. We got the notification on our phone
3:15
and when we wake up the screen on our watch, we have this dot right here, jumping dot, this means
3:20
that we have notification on our watch and if we swipe up from the bottom of the screen, you should
3:26
open the notifications menu and here we have our notification. We can tap on it to read it
3:31
clear it, we can also scroll down and tap on clear all to remove all of the notifications. Okay
3:40
and that's how you enable the phone notifications for this watch on the iPhone. Thank you for
3:48
watching. If you found this video helpful, please consider subscribing to our channel
