  • Click on Settings.
  • Check the Notifications option.

Check Bluetooth Connectivity

Bluetooth is crucial for your smartwatch to receive call notifications. Make sure Bluetooth is active and functioning properly on your mobile device. Here’s how to do it:

  • Access your phone’s quick settings to check if Bluetooth is enabled (look for the Bluetooth icon).
  • Ensure that your smartwatch is properly synchronized with your mobile device.

If Bluetooth is deactivated or experiencing issues, it may be the reason calls aren’t reaching your smartwatch or are arriving sporadically.

Disable Do Not Disturb Mode

Your Xiaomi smartwatch has a “Do Not Disturb” mode that, when enabled, prevents notifications, including call notifications, from coming through. Check if this mode is activated on your smartwatch and disable it if necessary. Here’s how:

  • Verify that you haven’t accidentally activated “Do Not Disturb” mode on your smartwatch.
  • Ensure “Do Not Disturb” mode isn’t enabled during specific times when you should be receiving calls.

By disabling “Do Not Disturb” mode, you should start receiving call notifications on your Xiaomi smartwatch.

If All Else Fails: Restart and Reset

If the above steps don’t resolve the issue, consider these final actions:

  • Restart your Xiaomi smartwatch and your mobile device. Sometimes, a temporary glitch may prevent call notifications.
  • As a last resort, perform a factory reset on your smartwatch. After resetting, synchronize it with your mobile device again. When setting up, confirm that you want to sync all notifications, with a specific focus on call notifications.

Once the Xiaomi smartwatch is correctly synchronized and set up, and all the necessary notification permissions are granted, call notifications should work seamlessly.
