Motorola today has started rolling out a new software update for the Moto 360 that brings with it some minor but much needed bug-fixes. This includes a fix for the smartwatch intermittently loosing connection to the connected Android device and many under the hood system optimisations. 

The only visible change in this update is the bump in the Android Wear version to 1.0.1.1448224 though.

Initial reports from Moto 360 owners suggest that the update has improved the stuttering issue affecting the device and browsing around it has become more fluid and responsive now. Below is the full change-log of the update from Motorola:

  • Bluetooth connectivity – Improved Bluetooth connectivity between the watch and phone to reduce momentary disconnects experienced by some users
  • Charging notification – Added a message to confirm that Moto 360 is charging in cases when its battery is fully depleted
  • Bug fixes – implemented bug fixes and other system optimisations

The update is being rolled out in stages from Motorola so you will have to be patient for a few more days if the update has not yet landed on your device yet.

Moto 360 owners, have you already received the update? Do you see any noticeable improvements?
