A feature that everyone that has been hankering for on Android Wear devices is the ability to dial phone numbers from the watch itself. Well, LG has just released a solution in the LG Call app, but there is a catch – it’s currently only for the LG Watch Urbane, LG’s recently released smartwatch. As a result, the app currently only has a rating of 1.5 (out of 5) on its Google Play Store page, and the negative comments aren’t just coming from people who don’t have LG smartwatches, the most prominent complaints appear to be coming from LG G Watch R and LG G Watch owners who are livid that LG wouldn’t include their devices in the initial release of their app.
As far as the actually operation of the app goes, you can either use it to easily dial recent or favourite numbers, or you can dial a new number via its on-screen dial. You can also activate it by simply saying “open call” to your watch, and works on smartphones that have Android 4.3 or higher. We’ll have to see if LG eventually includes more device compatibility – its other LG smartwatches seem like a no-brainer – but for the time being, only owners of the LG Watch Urbane will be able to benefit from this app. Hit the link below if you’re in this exclusive boat.
