Apparently used my galaxy watch on my die-ing father.. I was astonished....

My condolences, blessings. Not sure how long can GW6 survive but if it syncs with Samsung Health your dad's heartbeats will stay and shown there.

produtos da Apple são pra otários

Tenho o mesmo problema com meu galaxy watch 6 classic. E a Samsung teve a pachorra de me marketar o treinador de corrida dele (que ela tinha removido recentemente) para eu acessar no relógio/celular e receber o aviso que só funciona no galaxy watch 8.

F off Samsung (Galaxy watch8 required to use running coach)

GW7/GW8 has a new processor, improved health sensors and GPS compared to your GW6. Maybe the Running Coach is designed to run on newer hardware, which is why the GW6 and older aren't supported. But you know what's actually annoying? Samsung locking vascular load and anti oxidant index for the GW7, e

Google Fi is running their free Pixel watch 3 deal again

I picked up this deal last December, replacing my Galaxy Watch 6. It's amazing how much better this works with my Pixel phone. I highly recommend not trying to pair a galaxy watch with a pixel phone.

I'm so underwhelmed

Don't really understand the music issue. I got my daughter a second hand GW6, signed her in, downloaded Spotify with a family account, signed her in to her profile and Bob's her uncle. Agree with Samsung being PITA with restricting certain things to a Samsung ecosystem. The whole point of Android is

How to get the old Health tile UI back?

Mines a GW6 I bought less than 2 years ago, and I already switched away from Samsung Phones for similar reasons part way through owning this watch. Gonna have to look for a new watch brand soon too

Installing previous version of Watchmaker 8.6.5 on my GW6 Bluetooth

I purposely did not get a GW 7 or 8, because I knew those would not be compatible, so hoping I could just make my GW6 watches last for many years. Samsung/Google really should have warned us about the implications of UI 8/OS6 killing so many watch face apps. Good luck getting an older model and hope

Just realised there no running coach for Watch 6C. Absolutely gutted. WTF Samsung?

It has been gatekeeped for the newer Watch series after the One UI 8.0 Watch update. Just prior to the latest update, you can still access Running Coach in the watch (as seen on my GW6 below) but they totally removed the access from the Samsung Health app on your phone It has now make a return to th

Does it make sense to get the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic (47mm) right now?

IMO no but it really depends on the individual. I'm on a GW6 and performance really suffers on the latest One UI 8 Watch. I would personally recommend to go at least with the GW7 I'm also a regular user of the running coach but Samsung gatekeeped it for the GW7 and above with the latest OS update
