Ratings and reviews

Okay, great. They finally rolled out an update, and now I can access my settings. I'm still giving this app 1 star. You made my app almost inaccessible for a month or two. Tread with caution, people. If you're going to buy Samsung Wearables, know that their companion apps are awful. Forced frequent updates, or no updates at all (resulting in your settings becoming inaccessible for an extended period of time).

They removed the Glady Buds2 from the Wearable App. Had to use a Widget instead to give me bud battery info. Now if I lose my buds I'm screwed because the 'find my ear buds' was also on the Wearable App. Their replacement, the SmartThings App, can't even detect my buds when my phone is one inch away. Worst thing is Samsung never pre-warned me about the change. It may have been mentioned in an update, but who reads them? Been with Samsung 8 years... time for an alternative!

I don't know why you would take away the option to control my buds from the wearable app I'm trying to couple a new Samsung buds to my old one because I lost one. you made that impossible. I wish I could give you one star but instead I'll just take my business elsewhere.
