TRD_hello! does anyone know: is it impossible to link smart watch with LTE to sailfish?11:01
attahWhat does LTE have to do with smartwatches?11:02
attah(and especially the linking/pairing of them)11:03
TRD_maybe I am using a wrong term? I mean the ability to have a separate sim in the smart watch, but have the watch still linked with the phone, so you can call and answer to calls without having to carry the phone with you11:05
attahThat doesn't sound like that would obviously need *any* support from the OS11:06
attahi.e. will vary completely from one implementation to another11:07
TRD_the OS still needs to be able to run whatever apps you need with the smart watch. I've seen different brands recommended that you can link with sailfish, but none of them seem to have models with LTE11:08
attahIf that solution is even app based for anything but configuration11:09
attahBut assuming it is some shennanigans where the app hooks the phone function and forwards it over a data connection - forget about it11:10
attahThose solutions will be for full Android only11:10
attahCall forwarding, two sims on one number etc. are different matters11:11
TRD_I know barely anything about the tech used there, so I have no idea. which is why I thought I'd ask if anyone has any more knowledge on the matter11:12
attahThis being extremely niche, and presumably with no standard solution... i don't think you'll have much luck11:13
TRD_ah, figures... well thanks for answering!11:14
attahBut if you do dig up something on what tech is actually used, you'll have more to go on for whether it stands any chance11:15
