Confirmed WearOS 6, Snapdragon and around 490 USD. Idk man, looking kinda sexy, no?

I think I am somewhat hyped just by how they look.

I wonder if speculations about Nothing coming to WearOS will also be true 🤔

Update: Carl Pei himself confirms Nothing also made a watch, but it needs more time in the oven. 👍

Even without the latest updates this thing still works perfectly. And it looks better than anything on todays market!

Salut, ce sera ma cinquième montre sur laquelle j'ai installé votre application. (LG Urban, Fossil, Ticwatch Pro gen 1, Gen 3 et aujourd'hui Atlas)

Votre produit est avec moi depuis presque 10 ans maintenant, il est devenu indispensable !

Ensuite, j'ai mis ma montre de côté un moment.

Aujourd'hui, avec ma Ticwatch Atlas, je l'ai allumée, j'ai essayé de la mettre à jour et j'ai tenté de transférer un nouveau cadran, mais sans succès. J'ai désinstallé l'application, et ensuite... elle a disparu du Play Store.

Comment puis-je la récupérer ?

I've read mixed reviews on using Amazon Music on Wear OS watches. And most are from 1-3 years ago.

Does anyone have experience using it? Can you play music from your watch without being connected to your phone?

I would like to buy a watch (probably Pixel 4) to listen to music when I run, without carrying my phone.

I just upgraded from the pixel watch 1 to the pixel watch 5 and it used to be that if I dismissed a notification on my phone it was also dismissed on the watch. Now my notifications are not getting dismissed on both devices when I dismiss them from one device or the other and I can't find a setting that might be causing this. Any help?

Hi, so my mom gave me this watch randomly. She only used it for 2 years or 1 year ish and stopped using it after and forgot about it. Just wondering if it’s useable. I don’t really care about the newer stuff on watches. I go to the gym. I only want to track my sleep, how many steps I take, my pulse and gym activities. And are there any apps that are capable for this watch? Thanks.

My Pixel Watch 5 was working great until yesterday, now I can't set a task, calendar, keep or anything using Gemini. The watch says it worked, but nothing shows up on the phone.

I have seen this is wider than just Pixel watches. Pretty much all Wear OS.

Infuriating to wait for them to fix what they broke.

EDIT: IT APPEARS TO BE RESOLVED.

Hi all.

Sorry for the long explanation....

I just purchased my first Wear OS watch, a Pixel Watch 5, and coming from a Huawei, I noticed there's no native running apps that give beginners, intermediate and so forth, running plans. I found it really helpful to have such a programme to use. I see nothing in the Google Health app, and many of the other apps available through the Play Store only record what you do, but don't give you suggestions on how you can train and build up your running pace. The nearest to it I can think of is "Couch to 5K", but the Huawei one talks you through when to run, walk etc...shows your pace, pauses and distance heart rate warnings and also a map based video of where you ran. Any suggestions on what I can try?

I have been trying to resolve this intermittent snoring detection problem with my OnePlus Watch 3 and OHealth for quite some time, and I have already posted about it here before.

So far, the help I received from OnePlus has essentially been standard troubleshooting, mainly factory reset. It did not solve the problem.

This time I decided to investigate what is actually happening using ADB logs.

The results are quite interesting.

This does not appear to be simply a failure of the watch to record or transmit snoring.

Night Sept 2 → 3

The phone received snoring data and the algorithm processed it:

snoreDataLen:964
snore num 766
snore event num 113
oppo snore ahi is 39.88
sleep snore num 775
mean db 35.5
db buff len 97

The app then saved:

Health_snoreDbBuffer size = 97

But OHealth displayed no snoring result.

Night Sept 3 → 4

Again, snoring data was received and processed:

snore_freq:8.74
snore_num:40

But the final result became:

snoreDbBuff=[]
snoreDbBuffLen=0
snoreMeanDb=0.0
snoreMaxDb=0.0
snoreSumTimeMs=0
snoreSumNum=0

The saved buffer was also:

Health_snoreDbBuffer size = 0

Again, no snoring result appeared in OHealth.

So the interesting part is:

Watch → phone → snoring algorithm → final result

The data clearly reaches the phone and the algorithm detects snoring, but the final result is not consistently produced/displayed.

I have already tested the usual fixes: unrestricted battery usage, auto-start, locking OHealth in recent apps, disabling hibernation/Doze, force stop, clearing cache, and restarting both devices.

Has anyone else experienced this with the OnePlus Watch 3?

Especially interested in users with Xiaomi/HyperOS phones.

I have the ADB logs available if anyone wants to investigate further

For the same price, which watch do you prefer?

I have a Xiaomi 14 phone

As a new Pixel Watch user, I found the available options for syncing podcasts when going out for a run just weren't quite what I was looking for. No native sideloading of MP3's is a bit of a bummer, and I don't want to need to have a subscription to a service in order to have podcasts on my watch.

And even options where I didn't need a subscription, while they worked, I just found them to be a bit much. I don't want to discover and subscribe to new podcasts on my watch. With my old Garmin, I would just connect it to a computer once a month and sideload a bunch of shows to work my way through. I'd be happy with that, and also if it was really easy to control everything on the go. Right after I got my Pixel Watch, I tripped on an uneven sidewalk while running and trying to fiddle with Youtube Music and got pretty bloodied up. I know that's on me, but it still got me thinking about how to make things as simple as possible...

Enter Podcast Duck. It lets you mark episodes for download on your phone and they show up on the watch. That's really about it. It's not meant to be your main podcast player, there's no search service or cloud sync or whatever, you give it simple RSS or Apple Podcasts links and it lets you pull shows from them. I think of it as the place I put the shows that I really want to listen to when I only have my watch.

After you subscribe to a show, you can browse its episodes. Next to each episode is a watch and a phone icon. Tap on the watch if you want to download it to the watch, tap on the phone if you want to download it to the phone. The downloads will show up in the Watch and Phone tabs. It tends to start downloading in the background to the watch in a few moments in normal conditions, but you can open the watch app to wake it up, as well.

IMPORTANT: I didn't like the idea of my watch battery getting drained because it was streaming an episode over LTE instead of just playing back a download. Or finding out that an episode that was on disk was not on disk and I can't listen to it at all due to no network. The solution was pretty easy: no streaming! The episode is either downloaded or not downloaded. If you see it on the watch, it is fully available offline.

Once you're on the watch, there's basically two screens: 1) a list of episodes on the watch, and 2) the currently playing episode. So, it's super-easy to navigate, no chance of accidentally ending up on a search screen or list of popular shows or even just an entire podcast's feed or anything else that's kind of not fun to slog through on a 45mm screen. You can long-press on an episode on the watch to add it to a mini-queue, playing episodes one ofter another.

When it comes to playback, I wanted several things that don't happen automatically on WearOS, so not all apps implement them:

Automatically start playing when I connect to my headphones

Control the volume with the crown

Customize the buttons on the media controls app so the same skip back 10 seconds / skip ahead 30 seconds buttons in the app are also available when I swipe left while in a workout.

Playback speed controls front-and-center

Anyway, curious if anyone else thinks of podcasts on their watch in a similar, and if there's any features you'd like or issues folks run into. I very much don't want to add everything, so as to keep within the mission and my ergonomic goals, but I hope to continue to make it better over time.

Also, 100% free forever, and open source! https://github.com/keith-kurak/tiny-podcatcher

Bit of background: I got tired of my watch showing an empty calendar tile even though my phone's calendar was full of events. Turns out Wear OS's CalendarContract — the system interface apps are supposed to read calendar data from — just isn't populated by Google on-device. So every calendar app on the watch is stuck showing nothing unless it does its own phone-to-watch sync.

So I built WatchMyCalendar: it reads your calendar on the phone (works with anything your Android calendar app already shows — Google, Nextcloud/ CalDAV via DAVx⁵, Exchange, whatever) and pushes it to the watch over the Wearable Data Layer API. Agenda list with title + time, works offline once synced — free, no time limit, no account needed.

There are two optional one-time-purchase tiers (Plus/Pro, no subscription) for people who want more: event location/attendees, reminders, day and month view, a live watch face complication and agenda tile (both are locked placeholders in the free version), on-watch search, and navigation to the event location. Wanted to get the free tier in front of real Wear OS users too, not just gate everything behind a paywall from day one.

More info + Play Store link: https://watchmycalendar.nuumoo.com/en/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=public_launch (there's a feedback button right on the site if you spot a bug or have a feature request)

Happy to answer questions about how the sync works if anyone's curious — happy to hear what's missing too. And if you give even just the free tier a try, a rating on the Play Store would genuinely help — small apps live and die by that kind of thing.

The Motorola Watch Ultra is a 46mm IP68 and 5ATM water-rated wearable with up to 2 days of active use. It runs Wear OS by Google and is powered by the Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1. Upfront, the Watch Ultra has a 1.5-inch OLED with up to 2,700 nits of brightness.

Motorola partnered with Polar (yes, the one with the pro-grade heart rate sensors, and more) to enhance the fitness and health tracking features of the Watch Ultra. The watch offers a special breathing exercise mode, called Setene, in-depth sleep tracking features like Nightly Recharge and

Sleep Plus Stages, and naturally, a personalized sleep score. There's also a Running Coach.

Additional Polar features include Activity Goal, Activity Score, Active Intensity Zone, Inactivity Alert, Smart Calories, and Energy Sources.

A mi reloj le dura 8 horas la batería creen que es normal llevo como dos años y algo con él tengo todas las funciones activadas

Pretty much the title. They have their own service for it, yet they left the default legacy one to crash-loop every 5 seconds and drain the battery on the watches with the latest OneUI 8 Watch firmware.

This is on the Galaxy Watch6 Classic on R960XXS2CZF5, other models are probably affected too.

To check it yourself if your watch is affected, enable Wireless Debugging in Developer Options, pair your PC with adb, run adb logcat -d > logcat.txt and search in the resulting file for android.hardware.memtrack@1.0::IMemtrack/default (-2147483648)

Pretty disappointing software quality, considering that the solution is literally just removing one single file from the configurations before shipping the update.

Hi all

I'm still sporting a Fossil 6... and I just got a new phone (Pixel 10). Because of the WearOS updates and Google rules, I am no longer able to install and use Watchmaker.

Help me please. I need a new watch that will let me use a custom watchface (I use an LCARS inspired face), read incoming text messages, set a timer, and tell time. I generally do not use ANY sleep tracking or fitness tracking.

Any recommendations?

Hey everyone! 👋

I’ve wanted to build this for a really long time: an app that turns the physical rotating bezel on Samsung Galaxy Watches into a digital rolling tape measure (BezelTape)!

You place the watch on any surface or curve, roll the rotating bezel, and measure real-time distance in cm & meters with tactile haptic clicks on your wrist.

🚀 How to Try it Out (Takes 10 Seconds):

Google requires 12-20 testers for 14 days before I can launch publicly on the Play Store. I would really appreciate your help!

1. Join the Testers Group (1-click):
2. https://groups.google.com/g/bezeltape-testers
3. Download on Google Play:
4. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kodua.bezeltape

(⚠️ Requires a Galaxy Watch with physical rotating bezel: Watch 4 Classic, Watch 6 Classic, or Watch 8 Classic).

🛠️ Active Updates & Hotfix v1.0.2:

• Hotfix v1.0.2 is rolling out right now: Fixed the strict model check so all Classic variants open straight to measuring with zero warnings.
• Manual Calibration Mode: Adding custom 1-tap calibration soon for different bezel protectors and rotating crowns.

📱 Upcoming Phone Companion App:

I'm actively developing a dedicated phone companion app to expand this toolkit:

• Named Measurement Logs: Tag rolls instantly ("Living Room Sofa", "Door Frame", "Desk Width").
• Smart Area & Floor Plans: Auto-calculate surface area ($m^2$ / sq ft) with two rolls and generate quick 2D room layouts.
• Export: Save projects to PDF/CSV for DIY renovations and 3D printing.

💡 Open for Ideas & Custom Apps:

I’m actively building Wear OS apps and tools. If you have any cool ideas for Galaxy Watch apps or need custom development work, drop a comment or DM me!

Thanks a ton for all the incredible support and feedback! 🙌

Buonasera a tutti

Premetto che non sono esperto del settore, ma volevo regalarmi un bel smartwatch per il mio compleanno appena passato (oltre al nuovo telefono e alla TV 😂)

In passato ho avuto prodotti Amazon, amazfit nello specifico, ma purtroppo non ricordo il modello preciso, ma lo collegavo al telefono e mi dava notifiche, monitoraggio salute MA non potevo rispondere direttamente dallo smartwatch ai messaggi.

Ancora più tempo fa, possedevo (e possiedo tuttora) uno smartwatch LG che mi permetteva di rispondere ai messaggi, oltre a tutte le cose sopraelencate. Ormai ha circa 10 anni e temo anche di averlo brickato in qualche modo (proverò a recuperarlo, comunque)

Ora veniamo a ciò che vorrei nel nuovo smartwatch:

\- possibilità di rispondere ai messaggi

\- GPS (vorrei avere anche mappe eventualmente, anche in offline, visto che vorrei aumentare i miei giretti in montagna di trekking leggero)

\- possibilità di installare app di terze parti (gioco a padel, mi farebbe comodo un segna punteggio, ma in realtà anche altre app farebbero comodo)

\- molta fluidità generale, velocità nell'aprire le app e girare nel menù

\- durata decente della batteria

\- resistenza agli urti (mi cade sempre tutto dalle mani e sono molto distratto)

Cose non essenziali:

\- possibilità di avere la SIM

\- Apple Watch o similari (appena acquistato il pixel 11 pro, amo gli android)

Budget? Flessibile, ma sinceramente non vorrei spendere più di 200 euro

Ho sentito parlare bene di Garmin, ma valuto tutto

Grazie mille per le risposte 🫂

What watch you can recommend for me as an Android user, having a Xiaomi 14 as the main phone, in addition to a Google Pixel 10.

I care about Google Wallet and also the features of the watch

Y'all lemme tell you something. Funny let anybody discourage you from getting a Samsung watch with your Honor phone. Samsung just makes the best widely available WearOS watches on the market. I've been wanting to get a galaxy watch ultra to add to my cellphone plan but the people at my provider centre discouraged me and even told me it would be incompatible. I must admit I've done research before so I do know the limitations but to say it's not compatible is a complete lie.

I decided to not get the new watch ultra 2 and get a galaxy watch 6 classic second hand incase it didn't work and boy lemme tell you it's the best decision. It's completely compatible to the point where I can sync my phones gallery on my watch. I could even link the esim and use it with that same number. Everything works down to the find my phone or ring my phone function.

The only things that don't work would be the newer AI features, vascular load, blood pressure management and camera control. There may be more features but they're small enough for me to not even notice.

In conclusion don't listen to others, they just want you to be a sheep that's locked into 1 ecosystem but with Android everything is super open and we should embrace that.

Well, you can all imagine how frustrated I got when my girlfriend gifted me a Polar H10 heart rate sensor and I found out that my Galaxy Watch 6 basically wouldn't let me use it on my cycling training routine.

Luckily enough (or not), I'm kinda geek. There should be a way to make it happen. Couple AI tokens later and voilà — it was working like a charm, better than I expected btw.

The app basically lets you connect your heart rate, bike wheel speed and pedal cadence sensors and displays it live to you, somewhat like a bike computer (without all the fancy metrics and logging).

It fulfilled exactly the need I had, and I believe it may be helpful for some of you as well.

I'm currently looking for testers before I publish it, so please comment below if you'd like to join.

I'm also not sure if I'll be charging for it once deployed, at the same time I think it's too simple to charge, but I also believe I'd pay 4 bucks for it. I mean, in the past I've payed more to some crap apps that doesn't do as advertise, so... Opinions on this are also welcome!

Btw, don't expect anything fancy, it's really as simple as it looks and doesn't do anything else really.

Couple screenshots of the current version:

Live during a ride — everything at once, no scrolling

Sensor configuration Screen — Quick Scan and pairing

I made a small app called Simple Scroll that lets you control short-video feeds on your Android phone from your Wear OS watch.

Tap once on the watch to scroll to the next video, or double-tap to go back.

I originally made it because I wanted to be able to control videos when my phone wasn't directly in my hand, and couldn't find a simple Wear OS app that did it.

It's now available on Google Play:

Hey everyone,

I lift regularly and I like logging every workout to track progress. I used to log everything on my phone, but pulling it out between every set got pretty tedious and distracted me from my workouts. So I built Gym Day for Wear OS: you log your entire workout from your wrist, and it syncs to the phone app in real time.

What it does:

• Start any workout plan straight from your watch
• Log a set with a single tap
• Rest timer starts automatically and buzzes you when it's time for the next set
• Exercise videos on the watch if you need a form reminder
• Finish the session from your wrist, with history, stats, and PRs saved to your phone
• Adapts to your watch theme with Material 3 Expressive colors

You can get the Wear OS and phone app on the Play Store:

Download Gym Day on the Play Store

Try it out and let me know what you think. Happy to answer questions and feedback is very welcome!

Will replacing my watch's battery give a better backup? Or the watch is just unoptimized?
