Ratings and reviews

An update stopped the weather app from working entirely. The last sync was December 1st. it says to enable location permissions, which are enabled. It even shows the Wear app accessed them when I check them but still it doesn't work on the phone. I hoped the update released yesterday would fix this. It didn't. Come on Samsung fix your bugs. I have a GW4 and weather is the thing I check most after the time! Update - several patches later the issue appears to have been resolved

Constant problems. Repeatedly asks to allow permissions that are already granted. Only syncs a small fraction of my calendar events. Every update of this app breaks something on my watch. Every update on my phone breaks something on my watch. My watch is ONLY good for telling time right now until that breaks too. No weather. No calendar. No location/GPS. Hire serious engineers and make some actual software instead of more garbage bloatware. I would give 0 stars if I could.

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.
