I've seen a lot of Galaxy Watch videos since pre-ordering. None of them explain the basic features as well as this video did. I learnt a lot in 13 minutes! thanks mate ;)
Thank you so much! I just received my watch and was able to quickly move around because of your excellent demonstraions and descriptions. I learned about a lot of options I had not idea the watch had! You are appreciated!
The Galaxy Watch has a ton of features that allows you to customize it to fit your lifestyle. I've only covered 20 tips to help you get familiar with the OS. Please share your tips and tricks below!
Ignore the snotty comments. Great video offered to help new owners. Imagine. A nice gesture. First month in my 46mm Galaxy coming from an Apple watch. Excellent build quality, just seems far more rugged and has great fit/finish/finesse. Using the basic bold text format black ground/white character face im seeing 10% batt drop per day incl 90 a min daily wrkout. That's insanely good. Loving mine. Cheers.
Thanks! It’s definitely got a tougher exterior than the Apple Watch. The battery life on both sizes are excellent. I’m impressed with the amount of customizing too.
Last Friday, I ordered the Galaxy Watch 42mm, in black. An early birthday present for myself. The Shop Samsung App told me it was backordered, and I would receive it approximately 5/23. While watching this video, I just got an email telling me my watch has just shipped, almost 2 weeks earlier than expected! So it looks like I'll have this watch before my birthday, next Wednesday! I've been using the Gear Fit2 since I got it free with a Note pre-order a few years ago. Can't wait to get this in! Great video!
Best informative galaxy watch video I've seen. And believe me, I have seen ALL of them since I was hyped about receiving mine. You talked about so many things that nobody else even mentioned. I learned a lot. Thanks so much!
Appreciate it! I wanted to do 50+ tips but figured a 30 minute video would be too much. Definitely learned a lot doing this one. Hope to make future tutorials much better. Thanks again!

This is so awesome! Thank you so much 😍 I'm getting my watch tomorrow and I'm a first time owner so this is one of the better "basic" videos that I've seen so far. I thank you again 🤗
At tip #11 I see a text messaging app. My watch does not have that! I also do not have a email app. Any ideas on how to find those? I have a Samsung B746 watch model #SM R810. What version of Galaxy Wearable are you using?
Hi, my name is Enrique. Congrats for the video. I have a question on the use of GWatch GPS feature. I use my watch to record my running. When I started using the watch and then downloading info into the Samsung Health app in my cell phone a map of the course I ran appeared. Recently, I have noticed this is not happening now - the app just shows distance, time, heartbeats, etc. I think I am doing something wrong in preparing the watch to run, but I do not know what. Do you know what the problem might be or suggest something for me to do to correct this situantion? Thanks.
Thanks. Many of the guys try their best but the English language can be a difficult task for some. Can't really understand them. This provides what I need to get started. Cheers.
i bought the 2018 galaxy watch 42mm(BT version) and am using it with my Samsung Note 9 device. I have updated the watch software, the apps on watch shows no update currently and notifications are turned on too for WhatsApp Facebook Messenger Gmail etc... but I am not getting any notifications for these apps on my Galaxy Watch... only Phone and SMS notifications are coming. No third party app notifications are showing. Please help.
Finally got the solution... now watch is up and running perfectly.. you have to uninstall the "galaxy wearable" app pre installed in the phone... while doing that you will be asked if you wanna uninstall all the related plug ins too... click "Yes" restart phone... and re install the app from play store... format the watch by clicking reset on watch too simultaneously... then pair and you should be good to go and yea.. update all watch apps from phone too...
I’ll keep your tip in mind until I get my watch. Thanks! By the way, do you get the notification icon counter for the 3rd party apps when you receive a message on it?
Is there a way to add your own customized notifications? I know you can with ringtone, haven't been able to figure out how to do so for notifications... Thanks
Which model of the galaxy watches is this and what size is it,I don't like them when they are too big and extends beyond rims of my wrist, I like them moderate.
Ik this is a late comment but I'd rather get this than the active version and I am a lifeguard I sometimes work slides and usually I'm always putting my hands in the water is this watch fit for that?
Crazy thing, yesterday I got "Samsung Watch Active" and watching your video while checking all options. Suddenly my Bixby started to go on while I was checking some apps. I already thought my watch is ready for RMA when I noticed that your voice is activating Bixby :) Tested several times. I am watching your video on TV with great sound btw. I had no idea that Bixby can be activated by voice. Great video. If I watched it yesterday it would save me lot of time.
@@TechJungle :) No worries, I learned something new. Watch has mic on front side and it was pointing right into speakers, it even speech to text from my TV but not precisely, so it is great fun to read that :) Strange thing is that is activating with just word "Bixby" though. No need for "Hi, Bixby".
One other question that I will like to ask to help me decide on which direction to go about these watches is that is it possible just for the face of these watches to turn black when they are not being used as in when they are not active,sort of make them go to sleep.
Hello, can you help me? I bought an watch and I don't know how to send audio, and I saw in your video that you had the option, is it an app to send audio? I don't have an option in my watch to send voice audios. Please, help me! I would appreciate
hey just a quick question and please answer,so im planning to buy this watch from a long time but when I installed the galaxy wearable app to connect the watch I couldn't find it I only found the galaxy watch 3,so what am I supposed to be doing should I press "scan for nearby devices" or do something else....and I know im too late by buying it but the watch three is so expensive.
Try connecting to the watch somewhere that there are no other devices around. For example. Take just your phone and your watch to your car. Tap the "scan for nearby devices" and place the watch directly on top of the phone. That along with no other devices being around should help. It took me 3 or 4 times when I first got my watch for it to connect.
Yeah I think a once a week restart is good. No need to turn it off unless you’re trying to save battery life and you don’t have access to a charger for a few days.
I cannot hide apps as the options you are using for that are just not existant on my UK version of the Galaxy watch 4. Specifically in Apps there is no more options and so obviously I don't get to the hide option. Any of ideas? Thank you.
I have recently purchased this watch and so far loving it (previously owned an Apple watch) I have been trying to set up Samsung Pay but does it only work if you have a Samsung mobile, I have a Huawei Mate 20X? tfs
@@TechJungle I can't seem to get it work, when I click on Samsung Pay it says up the top, "Samsung pay (Watch Plug-in) then at the bottom it says, Galaxy watch plugin, for your security, your phone is not allowed to install unknown apps from this source. Then it has a cancel bar and a settings bar, ive no idea what to do? :(
Even though I have had the watch now for a couple of months and am quite familiar with most of the tips shown in the video I want to say that this is an excellent source as a startup for anyone starting to use the Galaxy watch - I really wish I had seen this when I first started wearing the watch. Pace was great, visual instruction was very easy to follow. Well done! Now I would really like to see a "trouble shooting" video. I have had a variety of issues with my watch and the Samsung site is not terribly helpful in solving them - even went to the local Samsung store and they were useless. Here are some issues: How can I download music that is not currently on my attached phone? My email was connected, but has now stopped showing up on the phone - what can I do to resore it. My appointments have never appeared on my watch - I use Outlook. What can I do to connect it.
Thanx for posting. Very helpful. Is there a way that I can add my personal background to my Gear 3? When I add the picture, I cannot see the watch function.
I've had this watch for 2 years but someone told me that your Google maps can work on the watch as well. I was unaware of this and I still haven't figured it out do you know anything about it or have a video already showing this?
Both. If you want the notification while your phone is not around, be sure to sync your WiFi settings and make sure it is always on. That is called remote connection. Anything other than that you would have to get the LTE version
I didnt know you can touch the screen, what a tip!!
😂😂😂
👏👏😂😂
rofl!!!
Lol
Thought the same tho
I didnt know know alarms can be set to ring at specific times!
Thank you. Some of the tips were very basic but it gives a good starting point to those who are just starting up with this watch.
The first thing that happens when you set up your watch is it tells you all the different screen touching methods.
You can’t even avoid it.

All people criticising the video, but it's the best, thanks, even grandma can learn from this.
Thanks!!
I'm so glad they kept the SOS. I traveled using my Samsung Gear which had this option. It alerted my family with my text and coordinates.
I cannot find SOS feature in my settings, I have an international version of 42mm watch.

Thank for for taking the time to produce a very helpful video. Great job!
Thanks for taking the time and explaining these features and making this video.
Thank you!
If you put the watch into silent mode, does it silence your phone aswell? or do sounds operate seperatly on phone and watch?
Just got mine. This is by far the best vid on tips. Kudos!

Can i make/receive calls from the watch and talk through my Bluetooth headphone rather than the watch microphone?
Yes
How?
Just got my new samsung galaxy watch 42mm black and it's amazing, what a watch so happy and your vid has been a great help

Thank you! It’s definitely an awesome watch!
Great video, thanx dude.
thanks for the tips!!! I just got a watch for christmas and these tips helped me!
Glad the video helped!
I have a gear s3 which I use with an iPhone. I don’t have some of the features like water lock mode. Can’t seem to find the latest update
Excellent video, I just purchased this watch a week ago and this video is awesome thank you. Of course I hit the like button and I also subscribed.
Thank you!!
@@TechJungle My pleasure.
Just received the watch for Christmas, thank you for all the info !
This narration gave me some good ASMR. Thanks for that.
This is so awesome! Thank you so much 😍 I'm getting my watch tomorrow and I'm a first time owner so this is one of the better "basic" videos that I've seen so far. I thank you again 🤗
Thanks for the positive feedback. I know we all hate reading through manuals, that's kinda why I put this together 😎
@@TechJungle yes! I'm going to watch this as I set my watch up, it's charging right now lol
Just got one
This is the best info I've seen
Is this able to connect with any type of phone?
Yes, but the caviat is that you get the best experience with a Galaxy phone.
What exact model of this Samsung watch in this video? Thanks
It’s the 40mm Galaxy Watch in black
@@TechJungle 40mm doesn't exist. It comes in 42 or 46.
Thank you for the excellent video. Clear and concise and no background music !.
I appreciate it!!
I think I know which video you came from 😂😂
Good video. Great on 1.5x. Thanks!
My friend i need to know the link or website or what is the name of apps should i download in playstore so that i could customize my watch
Is this the 42mm or 46mm watch you're showing in the video? It's not in the description
it's black meaning it must be the 42mm model
Just got active 2 but am not receiving calls on it I only get notifications after the call has ended
This is most excellent. Thanks!
Thank you!
I love my watch but I can't find the "Water lock" feature anywhere. I actually don't think it is on my watch. What am I doing wrong?
About GPS when we workout for outdoor then without phone we can use this watch or not plz tell me......
Very useful video. Short and to the point too. Thanks!
Thanks!
One of the best Samsung Galaxy watch videos online !
Thank you!!
Please advise whether we can use NFC to pair watch active 2 to sony SP 700N bluetooth headset? I can not pair them together. Thanks!

This one is 42mm
Thinking to buy this watch tomorrow. How does it compare to the new Samsung active watch .
Can you play UA-cam videos on the watch..
The active is not really a smart watch, it is more like a fitbit with better software and a better interface.
Well done, very helpful, thanks
Thank you!!
Great tips all in one place thank you!
Great comment! Thanks!!
I love the SOS feature. My wife will love that.
Great detail. I'm trying to pair and followed the steps. My phone indicates finishing pairing now for 15 minnutes. any suggestions
That’s odd, is Bluetooth activated on your phone?
@@TechJungle all set now. Just took a bit. Thanks for checking in. Pretty cool watch so far.

One other question that I will like to ask to help me decide on which direction to go about these watches is that is it possible just for the face of these watches to turn black when they are not being used as in when they are not active,sort of make them go to sleep.
What face did you use first
Great tips, thank you.
Does the watch work any better with a Samsung phone than with any other android phone?
Doesn't matter in reality ;)
Better with a galaxy phone for sure.
Can I run Google assistant or at least kinda navigation maps?
Thank you for a great video.
You’re welcome, and thank you for the compliment!!
What was the last watch face shown? Not the analog? Thanks, great tips!
I think you are talking about the Power Saving Mode face. It gives you a ton of good features and can give you several days of battery life.
did they remove the water lock mode on the s3 frontier?
I don’t think it had it on that model.
Can I use the watch to control Spotify on my buds instead of my phone?
Yes I believe there's a Spotify app
There is

Should I turn the watch off when I'm not using it or is it best to just leave it on like a cellphone and reboot it maybe once a week?
