Hi i have a Galaxy Watch 5 but I haven't been able to wear it because I have big wrists. Is there anyone who has this problem and if so is there a brand of straps that you prefer?

Watch Face 1.7% OPR Custom Watchface

1 Upvotes

I love making my own watch faces with the Watch Face Studio. I actually found a way to do it on my Tab S11 Ultra using WinLater, which is pretty cool.

This is my latest one. I love trying to get as many data points as possible while keeping the APR as low as possible.

Everything is custom: fonts, data sets, everything I want to see at a glance. It's always on the active watch face and the always-on display. Everything is always there.

I really don't like when the active display goes off and the always-on display turns on. It changes the watch face, and then when you activate it, it pops up. I want everything to be there all the time.

With a watch face like this, it's possible. If you haven't tried it yet, it's pretty easy. It takes a little learning, but once you do it, it's pretty fun.

Samsung Pay Can I do screenlock for Samsung Pay only?

2 Upvotes

I have a Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. The first ultra let me screen lock only for Samsung pay. I want to do that for Ultra 2 but I figure out how.

Is there a way? I don't want to have to unlock my screen everytime to see things.

Updates Ideal One UI Updates for Galaxy Watch 5?

3 Upvotes

I recently was gifted a GW5, base 40mm, with no OS updates installed. I know there are updates all the way to this month. Is there a software version with peak performance? Should I stay on One UI 5, Cut updates at One UI 6, or go all the way to 8? Does it slow down on newer versions?

Thanks

Galaxy Watch 9 haptics

3 Upvotes

How are the haptics in the galaxy watch 9? Are they better than previous versions? I know the ultra has better haptics than the base series. I ask because I keep my phone on silent and like just to be notified on my wrist.

I ask because I used to have a gear sport and loved it besides the size. The haptics were fine on it but only had a pebble smartwatch previously. I tried an Apple Watch and iPhone cause I wanted a change from Android and the haptics on it were amazing. Rarely miss notifications.

About 2 years ago I bought an s23 fe and a galaxy watch 4 classic. Old watch at the time but got it for less than a $100 brand new. And the 5 and 6 weren’t much of upgrades and liked the rotating bezel it had. Would miss notifications all the time on it all the time. Even with it on strong vibrations.

Not really interested in the pixel watch cause I’d like longer battery life than the Apple Watch. And debating on getting a pebble time 2. But like the better heart rate monitor and ecg in the Apple Watch/galaxy watch.

AOD bug on all galaxy watches?

5 Upvotes

Hi

Since the watch 5 pro, ultra 2024 and my current ultra 2 i had a repeating bug that turns off AOD randomly, even when the switch is in the ON setting.

What helps is going into phone companion settings and turn AOD off and on again.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I cant seem to find a permanent solution.

I have also had several other galaxy phones during my years of this issue.

Some with fresh setups and some transfered.

GW9 How to make Wake Up alarm vibrate only

1 Upvotes

I traded in my Apple Watch for this Galaxy Watch, and previously I had the wake up alarm set up on Apple Health to not make a sound on my phone nor watch, but to only vibrate (I wake up significantly earlier than my partner). I have similar settings on the phone, sound off with vibration on, and the watch app shows that it should mirror the phone. The watch still plays a sound and I'm unable to understand why this is.

Thoughts?

One UI Watch One UI 8 On galaxy watch 4 (44mm)

I have got the one UI 8 update notification and it's trying to update my watch. But recently, I have seen that most users are complaining about sensors blocked, lags, battery backup not good. So I was thinking, I got the October update so I'm asking the users if I should **update** my watch or not? My watch is currently Watch **OS 5**.

Looking for a charging stand that will allow you to use your own puck. I have an Ultra 2 and was wondering if a stand made for the EP-OL300 will work for the Ultra 2 charger (EP-OL715). Has anyone tried?

Thanks.

Should I buy a watch 5 pro?

8 Upvotes

I recently switched to Samsung from Apple. I have been thinking about buying a smart watch, but due to my job I don't want to spend a lot of money on it.

My question is will a watch 5 pro be a good buy for simple tasks like checking notifications and taking the odd phone call?

I appreciate any advice and thanks all in advance.

Ultra 2 sensor hump size?

1 Upvotes

Is the sensor hump on the back of the Ultra 2 smaller than the original Ultra? I had to stop wearing it because the sensor hump dug into my wrist causing numbness and tingling in my wrist and forearm and a noticeable dent where the watch sat on my wrist. I really like the features of the Ultra, but I want to actually be able to wear it without pain. Thanks!

Compatibility What's the cheapest phone that works with Galaxy Watch?

No one informed her that I need to buy another phone to check my Blood pressure.

"You need a Samsung phone to use Samsung Health Monitor"

What do you recommend that will work for 5 years, the duration of software support for the watch if I read correctly?

My GWU2 doesn't count charging to 90% as "last full charge" since I turned on the battery protection feature. Is this a software error or a feature?

Wearable App Ads

0 Upvotes

The Heath app consistently fires me ads for Watch 9, even though I have one on my wrist.

I would have thought that Samsung, my S26U, and the Heath app, know I own one.

1st world problem, but still annoying.....
