#smartwatch

@jonathan_worth @doctorow I want a #SmartWatch with an open OS - which doesn't seem to be a key focus here. They only talk about an "open ecosystem for developers", but don't provide any further details, whether this refers just to the SDK or whether this addresses the whole software stack (firmware, OS, apps,...).

Being able to use a device, even after its vendor gave up on it - that's IMHO a key aspect of more #sustainability when it comes to electronic devices.

Galaxy Watch7 and Watch6 Manager Update (April 2025)

Today, Samsung has rolled out the Galaxy Watch7 Manager and the Galaxy Watch6 Manager update globally as they’re working on an update for both smartwatches. You can now download the update through Galaxy Wearable > Devices > Menu > Settings > About. If there is an update available for your device, you should see the update button as below:

The download size for this update is 155 MB, depending on the smartwatch model. Once the update is downloaded, you’ll be able to experience the new version of the Galaxy Wearable app and its manager plugins for your watch. This is done to improve reliability and performance, ensuring that you will be able to interact with your smartwatch more efficiently.

After the update, the following versions will be used:

  • Galaxy Wearable: 2.2.61.24112961
  • Galaxy Watch6 Manager: 2.2.13.25033151
  • Galaxy Watch7 Manager: 2.2.15.25010651

This update is necessary to align with the One UI 7 design elements.
