Thing I learnt about Conbee, is that it has a limit of X instructions at a time. More and they are lost. So if you have multiple devices...

metalhead on Samsung Galaxy Watch4 Classic Bluetooth (46mm/42mm), Black/Silver - $384 / $339 / $319 Delivered @ Amazon AU

What annoyed me was to setup the blood pressure on the watch you need to compare readings to an actual BP monitor!

Elephant on Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo T8 AIVI Robot Vacuum $719.10 + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ JB Hi-Fi

FYI no Garmin Pay/Music on this one.

You will have same issues as the Show 8 or 10. I'd suggest mounting a large Android Tablet.
