Same issue here with the Fossil Gen 5 and the Pixel 5.

Incredibly disappointing to have this sort of problem go on for so long, and because the Pixel 5 comes with a pretty up to date version of the Google app, it's impossible to downgrade it a version where it works again.

Please fix.

Same issue here with Fossil Gen 5 carlyle. Please fix it.

Also on Fossil gen 5 Julianna and Pixel 3aXL.

I'm having the same issue on my Fossil Gen 5 too. Google, please fix.

Thanks

i ask the wear os google assistant to "play music" and i get the same error. I cant downgrade the google app, i have a pixel 5. It wont let me. Im stuck with a defective product..

Doesn't work for me either and I Just got the Fossil Gen5 HMR2 update.

Doesn't work for me - Skagen Falster 3 and Pixel 4 XL.

OPPO watch also

Fossil Garret Gen5 HMR2 update applied. Doesn't work.

I confirm Fossil garret gen5 with hmr2 update. Assistant doesn't work to send SMS message and WhatsApp message and also navigate with Google maps

Yes i have installed HMR2 update too, and have a Google Pixel 4a so i too cannot downgrade the Google app to an earlier version which is a known workaround.  Changing language setting etc as some say helps also does nothing for these newer devices.

This appears to have been a known issue dating way back to January and still no fix or official statement.

These devices are endorsed and advertised as working with Google Assistant via Wear OS. This is key, basic functionality of Wear OS and quite honestly i am disgusted this issue has not been resolved yet or an official statement has not been released considering Google have recently released details of there exciting fall updates for Wear OS - None of which solve there customers issues.

If i cannot ask assistant to send a text, add a note or reminder or play music etc via this device then quite frankly i don't want it.

I am wondering whether a class action claim can be made on this issue on the grounds of false advertising and inconvenience received.

Come on Google, fix this.

Fossil Gen 5e. This has never worked for me. Hard to believe such a basic functionality is broken.

Oppo watch - same issue as described above

Pixel 4 XL and Fossil Gen 5.
Same issues.
Haven't tried downgrading the Google app yet, but don't feel like that's an acceptable solution.

Same for me Fossil gen 5

Moto 360 Gen 3 paired with Oneplus 8 Pro. My Christmas gift has a completely broke  "ok google" detection and inability to send texts through Google assistant. Updating both phone and watch to latest OS and apps does not resolve the issue.

Cannot send text message via google assistant with my voice using Fossil Carlyle gen 5. Play fix it

Came here to add my voice, I have a new Fossil Gen5 LTE on Verizon. When I use Assistant to send, my only option is to "Send from Watch" and the text goes out under my watch's number, not the number on my cellphone. This is not what happens if I send manually from within messages. It goes out as from my cell, and Cloud Sync puts the message in my phone Messages app.

If I deactivate the eSIM and use the watch as a WiFi only device, I have the same issue as all other users, sadface cloud says "Couldn't connect to phone".

All use of the Messages app works as designed both ways when done manually.

Same bug in Skagen Falster 3. Latest version of Google App installed, Wear OS on phone and watch.

Same on ticwatch 3 GPS. Please resolve it.

Fossil gen 5 julianna. Same issue.

Also the same

Is there any update on this Google? P3/S3 for something that is a gap in usability seems too low. How do we get this lack of functionality escalated? I'm also wondering whether a class action claim can be made on this issue on the grounds of false advertising and inconvenience received.

I also don't understand how this is not a higher priority. There should be
a class action lawsuit!

There are many similar issues. I have a Tic Watch Pro 3 with everything updated.

Asking for calendar appointments causes it to say the first one and announce it is showing you the rest but it's a blank screen.

Asking for hours to a store shows a list of locations but clicking them causes it to say "can't reach phone at the moment" just like with sms.

Asking for directions causes it to say "got it [address]" with a blank screen that does nothing.

Having Same issues on Tic Watch Pro 3. I was able to work around it for a few months by downgrading the "Google App" on both of my phone and watch. Though after a Samsung update, that work around no longer works. Now I eagerly wait for an updated Google App, that will include the fixes.

Same issue on my Fossil Gen 5. Been a loyal Android wear user for a long time but this bug existing for over a year with no food has me looking at other options.

Same error with my Fossil Gen 5 and Galaxy S10. When I try to send a text message and press the Send button, it says "Couldn't connect to phone". All other Google Assistant functions seem to work fine. Please fix the problem.

same issue with on my tickwatch pro 3.  really sad a core function like Google Assistant barely functions on a smartwatch.  what a waste.

same, Moto 360 3rd generation on the HMR2 update. Been this way for months, though.

Same issue with Ticwatch Pro 4g and Ticwatch pro 3 and Pixel 5, and before they Pixel 3.

Same Armani Connected 3 and Huawei W1.

The same happens to my Smartwatch Ticwatch Pro 4G - Google Assistant does not call contacts, does not send messages, does not navigate by Google Maps and so on.

Hey Google, is good that you announce a new wear os 3.0 but please fix this issues and all the other ones related to assistant before this fall otherwise I don't think that you will have customers that will try the new version of the operating systems

Same Here on ticwatch pro 3

same here, please fix

SAme issue.  Fossil Gen 5 and S21 Ultra.  It's literally thee only reason i want a smartwatch is to text through.....

Moto 360, texts result in "can't connect to phone" but they are paired and work together in every other aspect except sending texts.

The fact this bug has effected all WearOS devices for almost over half a year and Google is doing nothing about it has solidified that they no longer care about the platform. "Hey Google" was just recently fixed last month after EIGHT months of being broken across the board.

Never again Google. If you are going to let a platform die like this, don't let manufacturers keep using your firmware.

Same problem on Ticwatch Pro.

same problem on ticwatch pro 3. Super frustrating not to be able to use google assistant for basic functions on wear os. It is literally why I wanted to stay in the google ecosystem. Apple is looking better and better...

Same issue with Huawei Smartwatrch 2

Same issue with Ticwatch Pro 3.

Issues have now been reported to Trading Standards UK. These watches are being sold under false pretenses.

Same issues with Ticwatch Pro Ultra.

Same issue I have shared the bug reports to the email and sharing the bug reports here also please acknowledge the issue and work on it and users are very much dissatisfied with wear os development team .

Is anyone working on what i told in my previous comment ? #49

So users are mad or the developers who won't even fix the issues of Google assistant on wear os despite being Google doest even care about their wear os platform ?

TicWatch 3 pro + OnePlus 7t Pro getting the same issue as all others.  I'm surprised hardware manufacturers aren't up in arms.  TicWatch sells wear OS watches based on functions that Google tells them.  Their reputation is on the line if what Google tells them is false.  Every watch manufacturer should be all over Google to get this fixed.  

Same issue on fossil gen 6, is there a fix yet?

Still not working on skagen falster 3 and pixel 6. Glad I'm not the only one having the problem. Sucks it's apparently been going on for over a year.

TicWatch Pro 3 GPS.
I don't know how the heck I missed this when reading reviews to research my smart watch options, but it's stupid that Google refuses to fix this

Now that the Galaxy Watch4 has a fully working Assistant, will Goole update Assistant for WearOS2 watches?

Can confirm this is still an issue. Purchased my TicWatch Pro 3 GPS soon after release only to find this feature is not working and has not worked since.  This feature was 50% of my usage on previous devices.

My future purchases hinge on whether Google fixes this issue before my watch is unsupported and goes it's entire life without a key feature... I feel like it was a bait and switch, honestly.
