GW7 issues with NFC payment

[peaga84]

Hello

It's been a while since I'm using my GW7 for payment (by Google Wallet), but since the latest security updates, the payment machine refuses 2 or 3 times before finally accepting the process. I thoght it could be something with the NFC range, but even picking the machine and put it on top of the watch's screen, it is refused. Before the updates, I barely touch the watch and worked flawless.

Did anyone else get into this, too?

Thanks

I find that if you do not put the watch directly on/near the actual radio icon on some machines, the payment does not go through.  I could be that you are using different terminals/terminal types than you normally use, placing the watch in the wrong location on the terminal, or even just slightly twisting your arm wrong.  When they say near field communication, they really mean *near*.

Hi @realaud, thanks for your feedback.

In fact, I'm using the same terminals as before, always paying attention to the payment symbol and arm movements. Like I said, it wasn't that hard before the updates, I never lost a payment. The watch and my mobile had the same performance before...

Did you do housekeeping after the update?  Clear the phone's cache partition?  This will not harm your data and usually clears up many problems.  It will clear out any temporary files that may be interfering.
