Can I customize the emergency contacts on the Huawei Watch Ultimate


Yes, you can customize the emergency contacts on the Huawei Watch Ultimate. To do this, you will need to use the Huawei Health app on your smartphone. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Open the Huawei Health App: Start by opening the Huawei Health app on your smartphone. This app is essential for managing various settings and features of your Huawei smartwatch.

2. Navigate to Emergency Information: Go to the "Me" section in the app, then select "Profile," and look for "Emergency information." This is where you can manage your personal data and emergency contacts.

3. Add Emergency Contacts: In the "Emergency information" section, you will find an option to add emergency contacts. You can select up to three contacts from your phone's contact list. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.

4. Edit or Delete Contacts: If you need to edit or delete existing emergency contacts, you can do so by accessing the "Emergency contacts" section within the "Emergency information" screen. You can touch the Edit icon to modify or delete contacts.

5. Syncing with Your Watch: Once you have updated your emergency contacts in the Huawei Health app, the new data will be synced to your Huawei Watch Ultimate via Bluetooth when it is paired with your phone.

The Huawei Watch Ultimate does not have cellular connectivity on its own, so it relies on Bluetooth connection with your smartphone for features like emergency SOS. However, you can still view and call emergency contacts directly from the watch if you have set them up in the Huawei Health app.

For automatic emergency SOS initiation, if your watch detects a fall and you have set emergency contacts, it will automatically call the first contact and send a help message with your location to all contacts if you do not respond within 60 seconds. If no contacts are set, you will need to manually select a public emergency number.
