How to run a Moto 360 with an iPhone?

If there is plenty of evidence that Google wants to offer a compatible Android Wear devices with iOS, it's likely that Apple has something to say about it. In any case, both operating systems are not working together yet. That is, if you want a watch connected and you have an iPhone in hand, it will look for alternatives to smartwatches Android Wear, such as Apple Watch obviously, but also the Pebble.

Or at least officially. Why? There is now a fairly simple way to connect the Moto 360 to an iPhone or iPad, without having to jailbreak or rooter one of your devices. However, you will need access to an Android device to complete the setup Initial.

As shown in the YouTuber Jeremy Judkins , you first download the app Wear Connect for iOS on the Google Play Store, and you run it on your Moto 360.

Therefore, select "iOS Service" on your watch, then go on your iOS device and download BLE Utility on the App Store. Launch the application, click the "Peripheral", then click on the map displayed on the watch for the sign. After that, you should start to receive notifications from your iOS device. Simple right?

Not perfect
However, although everything seems perfect, there still has some problems. The first is that this is an unofficial solution, so everything is not working properly . If Judkins reports that notifications, appeals and applications of 360 Moto work, know that you can not send messages to date.

It is also risky to whether the 360 ​​Moto retain its connection to the iOS device, and there is no guarantee that it can work perfectly with everyone. That is, it is not really advisable to make a purchase of 360 Moto if you are unable or refuse to use it with an Android device.

Nevertheless, it is always exciting to see that Moto 360 is not restricted to the ecosystem of Google. Although the video speaks only of the Moto 360, both applications that are necessary make no specific mention of a restriction for a particular watch. It is therefore likely that other shows Android Wear to work in the same way.
