We just bought a 2019 Sahara. I've loaded Uconnect to my Galaxy s9 phone, but I'm having no luck getting it onto my Galaxy Smartwatch. Any ideas?

I don't own a smartwatch but don't they have to make the app compatible with smartwatches? I'd probably guess the Uconnect app isn't compatible.

Samsung's operating system is proprietary and they do not make an app for Uconnect on the watch. Only app available is on Android Wear o/s. I also highly doubt it's even possible to sideload it.

Uconnect works with the Alexa app now, maybe can use that as a work around.

I was literally about to post that. :) You can use "Voice in a can" app that gives you Alexa functionality on your Samsung then link your Uconnect App to Alexa and it should work. I'm going to testing it when I get a chance.
