Android Smartwatch users have some major glitches, slowdowns, and other issues that most users have encountered multiple times. To rectify, develop, or tweak your smartwatch, you might need to boot into recovery mode.
You also don’t require TWRP; instead, you can simply use the adb sideload to flash or install anything on your smartphone. If you don’t know the button combination for your smartwatch, then this guide might help you with dealing with it and rectifying it.
