For my use case this app is a godsend. My 92yo Mom's galaxy watch 4 would ring with every call or not at all. With this was finally able to enable priority DND on the phone and have only contact list people be able to call. I now no longer get asked if I know each and every number or have to deal with Mom asking to me if she can return each call. Thank you! Thank you! Saves me 30min each day and a couple of trips each week.

Just installed on my Samsung S10+ phone and TicWatch Pro 5 watch running Wear OS 3.5. It works bi-directionally. Turn on DND on phone, watch is set to DND immediately. Turn it off on watch, it is turned off on phone. And vice versa. Change setting on either device, it is changed on the other device.

Companion app is not available on Galaxy watch 4 App store. Therefore core functionality does not work.
