I just know the smart watch but now saying that can also use bitcoin using a smartwatch this is a nice one.yeah I use bitcoin paying bills with my cellphone only.now it can easily used scanning QR code with smartwach can easily access now.good to know this.I will try someday.
I tried it and it worked. I was so satisfied that I can make this with my watch. Now we live in the modern world, where you can speak on the watch like on the phone and this is normal. I wanted to buy a new one a year ago, but I didn't know what to buy or which is the best. I read a lot of reviews and I was on many forums but I also was confused. After some weeks I found about the https://findyoursmartwatch.com, where was a lot of information. After which I decided what to buy. Now I have Garmin Instinct.

This is why the developers of this of this smartwatch app do really see a problem when it comes to interest because most people arent preferring on using up watches so it would be better if they would switch up if they do really
like to get some attention.

The problem does exist but it's not a big or critical problem, the alternative is easy to find and most users are fine with that. Sure, some might think that using smartwatch is more convenient but that doesn't mean they'd not be happy if they can use their phone to do the same thing. After all, almost everybody has a smartphone now while not all of them has a smartwatch.

Rather than seeing a wallet app on their smartwatch, I believe users would love to see a calling feature where they can accept and make a call via their smartwatch, like a handsfree device (don't know if it already existed).

I think I would love to own this watch which I am sure can have a ready market willing to splurge on and enjoy the capacity to receive bitcoin at a flash. We are still a long, long way so behind when we talk about mainstream adoption but with development like this I can only say that maybe soon we can get there. I am expecting this kind of trend to continue through the years in our quest to spread the good news of bitcoin and cryptocurrency. As always, adoption is the key to everything.

Nothing special about it. Install blue wallet on your phone and request a Lightning payment. I have it on my phone too and passing satoshis from one user to another is super fast, and you also get more additional features from the smartphone app than a smartwatch app. It seem to be a gimmick rather than something people will actually use.

We all have our phones in our pockets, it literally just takes a few seconds to pull it out and launch the app to request a payment.
Completely agree on what you are saying here which if we do really compare the usage of smartphones and smartwatches we would able to see the difference.This is why the developers of this of this smartwatch app do really see a problem when it comes to interest because most people arent preferring on using up watches so it would be better if they would switch up if they do really
like to get some attention.

Are smartwatches really that popular? I haven't seen anyone around me this year wear one (yes, I know what they look like). Either way, compatibility is an important aspect too, and it helps stimulating adoption.

What I find more useful is a quick launch feature on smartphones to request payments without having to unlock your device, while in order to make payments you obviously still have to unlock it for security reasons.

I'm waiting for exchange integration but I can see why they still prefer to wait. I'm sure that when a large exchange goes first, the rest will follow because they don't want to stay behind and lose users.

I remember the days when we as children watched "Star Trek" on TV and we were amazed that the crew could communicate via their wristwatch and now things like this is a reality and we can even pay for goods and services via our Smart watches.  Shocked

"The Original Series", debuted in 1966 but we only saw this on our televisions a few years after that, so give or take 50 years, things that was just a fantasy and Sci-Fi back then, become a reality now.

Bitcoin are making childhood fantasies come true in the future!

Smartwatch users can now receive bitcoin lightning payments in seconds thanks to the new BlueWallet app.

Developed by BlueWallet, the app allows users to generate a QR code on their watch which someone else can scan with their smartphone to quickly send them payment over the Lightning Network, all with a few quick taps on their smartwatch.

"We were not happy with the current status of the wallet market, in particular, the wallet we were using at the time. So we decided to team up on this effort and build the solution we wanted to have."
