Samsung announced that Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Watch Active users will soon be able to enjoy all the user experience functionality found on the Galaxy Watch Active2 following a new software update. The South Korean giant is bringing a range of dynamic updates to its earlier-generation watches, including enhanced Samsung Health features, Bixby features, and customization options.
After the update, Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Watch Active users will be able to take fuller advantage of what Bixby has to offer, including using Bixby Voice to start exercise routines, find out time differences between places, and control their SmartThings ecosystem. Not only does Bixby learn from their routine and become more helpful over time, but its newly expanded language capabilities, include British English, French, German, Italian and Spanish.
With this latest upgrade, Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Watch Active users will also be able to customize their Watch faces more than ever before. Across all of our Galaxy Watch models, users will now have access to 24 new sub-dials and complications, building on the 17 already available, making the watch even more customizable, so users can access exactly the information they want, where they want it.
The improved UX will bring the My Style feature to Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Watch Active for the first time.
Icons for in-use apps have been moved to the bottom of the watch face, helping users keep track of and quickly access any apps with in-progress tasks, such as outgoing calls. Additionally, the current time will now always be displayed on-screen when the stopwatch app is in use or users are on a call, and users can customize the icons in their quick panel after a change in layout.
Other UX benefits include a clearer graphic UI, easier user interaction, and new emoji offerings in a range of diverse skin tones. For Galaxy Watch Active users, a new Touch Bezel interface is included in the upgrade, allowing users to navigate using finger swipe actions around the bezel.
Samsung will begin to roll out the update region-by-region. The software update will offer Galaxy Watch users even more tools for taking ownership over their health, more opportunities to make navigating Galaxy Watch easier using Bixby Voice commands, and more ways to turn their favorite watch into a statement piece.
