Avoid Answering Machines is a very clever feature, which allows the watch to tell when it’s calling voicemail. It’ll do this by asking you to press 5 when you answer to confirm that you want to receive the call. Turn this off if you don’t want to have to confirm the call when you answer.

By default, we’ll place the phone number from the order in the contacts section.

If you want to remove the SOS button functionality completely, you can delete all the contacts. If you do this, the user won’t be able to make calls using the SOS button.

If you still need to be able to call the watch, set all your contacts to ‘no‘ when asked if you’d like to add them as ‘emergency contacts‘.
