It’s not an officially supported feature for a reason.
I get the frustration. Unlike virtually every other consumer gadget, smartwatches and fitness trackers still rely on proprietary chargers. Even if two chargers look identical, they won’t work with another company’s smartwatch or tracker. You can buy third-party chargers off Amazon, but your mileage will vary on whether it works 100 percent of the time. Some companies, like Garmin, manage to use the same charger across several devices and models.
The answer is pretty straightforward. These devices are too dang small, and the technology isn’t there yet. Most standard connectors, like USB-C, are too large to fit within a smartwatch or on devices that are meant to mold to your body. The smaller the device, the more difficult this becomes. Even with wireless charging, the coil size is tricky to get right due to sensor placements. This could explain why some people can get wireless charging on the Pixel Watch to work relatively well and others, like me, can’t. It depends on which Qi charger you have, how you place the device, and whether you can maintain that placement without a magnetic element to ensure everything lines up perfectly.
