Ratings and reviews

App fails to open even after multiple restarts, installs or updates. It's been like this for a few months now. Samsung is really disappointing the Galaxy Watch users now. I am unable to connect my watch for a long time and at this point I having second thoughts of switching to different brand. And also, "Fixed the error"- what kind of software engineer writes a description like this? The error existing after a fix probably explains that.

Constantly disconnects and I have to reset my watch to go through the entire setup process all over again EVERY time. Absolutely ridiculous, I never had that issue with my Active 2 and this phone (Motorola Z stylus 2021). And on top of it, the backup doesn't even correctly restore the settings to what they were, so you have to start from scratch. Every. Single. Time.

App keeps crashing and disconnecting. I'm not sure if it's a glitch with the recent update because this hasn't happened to me until now. I keep getting pop up messages that this app has crashed, then it connects, then disconnects, and the pop up comes up again. It shows for like 0.5 seconds, and happens again and again. Ive tried restarting the phone, clearing cache, and hard restarting watch. In 20 mins i lose 10% battery power
