Ratings and reviews

Doesn't work with Pixel 8 for audio/video calls via online messengers, such as Telegram, Viber, Whatsapp. The Buds simply are not recognized as a nearby Bluetooth device, although all permissions are granted (including Nearby Devices). I contacted support, they asked me to take logs that are impossible to get via Samsung Wearable since it's not Samsung device. Thus they just apologized and asked to wait for an update.

Terrible user experience. I downloaded it to fix the issue of having continuous peep tones after the battery reached below 30%, which is a problem created by yours truly that shouldn't exist. When opening the app I am being spammed with pop up things I believe 99% of the users don't care about. You would get reminded about settings that you don't even need the app for, it feels like it tries to pretend having more functions while the app is unnecessary.

You need to install Samsung Wearables App for this app to work. Otherwise it downloads but does not say open, only uninstall and does not appear in list of apps. There are 3 widgets but all 3 say disconnected and are unresponsive. All works fine though with Wearables app. An odd way to design an app!
