Ok
@HarryG I did a bit of testing on this. Here's what I found:
- The
Bluetooth devices indicator on the Connected Watch
SETTINGS can get out-of-sync.
Mine showed "
Disconnected", even though the connection was restored after coming back in range.

Seems like this is a minor bug in the OS.
The important thing is that the Bluetooth connection does recover on its own, about a minute after the phone and the watch are back in range. Maybe this is what you are seeing?
- WiFi observations:
When I walked away from the phone, the switch to use WiFi was not instantaneous. I used the watch settings to choose the WiFi network and about a minute later the "cloud" operations (like voice searches) started working; slower that over Bluetooth, but they did work. Walking out of the Bluetooth range subsequent times, did switch to the WiFi connection, but again, the thing to remember is that it does take about a minute to take effect.
- Finally WiFi integration seems to have dependencies on Android phones. From the manual it's not clear to me WiFi connection is still possible with iPhones. Maybe someone with an iPhone can chime in on this.
