It might have been helpful if you had said that in your OP where you stated you bought Watt Key:

Vendor Watt Time & Watt Key - Wear OS Watch Apps To Control Your Tesla

I absolutely love WATT KEY. Tried both WATT TIME and WATR KEY but if I need my phone to use WATT TIME I decided it would be redundant. Thanks for creating app that let's me leave the phone in my car when going for a run.
P.S. I do notice my watch (G4) battery drains faster but I'm okay, it still lasts the whole day.

Did you turn off "Auto Connect" in Watt Key settings? I just got the app myself (today), so I haven't noticed a battery drain (yet), but have read the developer say that turning off that setting could save watch battery.
Sorry about that! Hmm just for the basics; are Bluetooth and Location services enabled? Did the app prompt you to give it access to Location when it first started to scan for your Tesla? You can double check its permissions in the "App" section of the watch settings. I'll have a look into it on my side, it might be something to do with the more modern version of Wear OS your new watch is running.
Oh also, I just released v6.0 yesterday. Could you please check if you have this latest version? Thanks
Sorry I don't have the timeCan I has Garmin app, please?
Garmin watch development is quite different to Android development.Sorry about that! Hmm just for the basics; are Bluetooth and Location services enabled?

Thanks for the response, I have double checked the basics, everything is set up correctly. App loads normally, same as on older Fossil watch. The car just doesn't show on the list :/
There must be some hardware or new OS specific problem, or perhaps Mobvoi has shitty Bluetooth implementation (i hope not)
I have connected my watch to adb and scraped some logs (unfortunately without car in bt range):
Those errors "remote_device_properties_callback: Callback env" show up just after accepting location permission prompt.
Full logcat is in the attachment, I hope it can help.

Thanks for attaching the logcat, very useful! It looks like Watt Key is successfully starting a BLE scan and results are coming in. Could you please download this app: nRF Connect for Mobile - Apps on Google Play
Once you've got that app open do a BLE scan and see if your Tesla comes up, its Bluetooth name should be something like "Sa6bab0d54ffaecf1C" or "Tesla 123456". Then if you could search the Bluetooth address of your Tesla in that logs.txt you attached. Let me know if your Tesla's Bluetooth address is listed somewhere in that file. If so it means that the car is being found but the app couldn't load the car's Bluetooth name which is needed to check if it's actually a Tesla or not.
Hi, sorry for the long delay, but I was away from the car for the entire week, I am back now.
So the name of the device is not in the logs, but physical address of the device is. So indeed it looks like the device (car) is found, but it is not displayed on the list for some reason...
I am attaching screen from nRF app and two logcat files (standing next to the car, one is from first start of your app, second one from resuming it from background)

Hi, no worries! Actually it's me that's sorry, as it turns out I had forgot to ask for fine location permission on newer WearOS versions. This location permission is required as the Tesla gets filtered out of the Bluetooth search results without it. If you open Google Play app on your watch and update Watt Key it should find your Tesla now. Sorry about that!
I can confirm that the newest version is finally working!!
Thanks for the support!
Thanks for the support!
Google says that error is usually because the Google Play app cache is corrupted. Can you try turn your watch off and back on and see if that helps? Otherwise if you can go into the settings on your watch and see if you can clear the cache for Google Play.
Couldn't figure out how to clear cache. Found under settings how much cache is being used, but no way to clear?
Can you try to sign out and back into Google on your watch? That might reset things.
