Data between phone and watch can be easily hacked
Smart devices using Bluetooth technology for data transmission are easily vulnerable by hackers. All your data, be it alerts, SMS, calendar entries, biometric data and others, can be easily compromised as they travel between the devices using Bluetooth. Data sent and received between the smart devices and your smartphone are carried over Bluetooth and the 6-digit PIN can be easily hacked by brute force. Though the hacking possibility of a Bluetooth signal is not a surprise, the problem is that the growing number of smart devices using the Bluetooth channel could cause a huge security concern.
