Google Develops Fix for Pixel Watch Health Sensor Errors Ahead of Aug. 12 Event
3 articles · Updated · Android Authority · Jul 17
Summary
Google told Android Authority its engineers are aware of Pixel Watch permission errors blocking sensor access for health tracking and are working on a fix.
The glitch prevents watches from logging health metrics, and users report that changing permissions or even factory-resetting devices does not resolve it.
Nearly half of respondents to an Android Authority reader poll said they had encountered the problem, suggesting the issue may be widespread.
No release timeline or workaround has been provided, leaving users waiting as Google approaches its Aug. 12 Made by Google event, where Pixel Watch 5 is widely expected.
