Google today has begun rolling out the latest Android Wear update to smartwatches bringing with it interactive watch faces and Wi-Fi compatibility with the LG G Watch R.

Android Wear 5.1.1 launched in May of this year with Wi-Fi capabilities in tow, but many were disappointed to see that the G Watch R wasn’t capable of Wi-Fi even after the update. The hardware was there to support it, but LG had disabled it for some reason.

Fortunately, once todays Android Wear update is downloaded on your G Watch R, you should have Wi-Fi capabilities. While this is exciting news, some users will still be left without Wi-Fi for a few days, as updates like these do take some time to fully roll out.

Have you gotten Wi-Fi on your G Watch R yet?
