Galaxy Watch Voice Memo App - Samsung Galaxy Watch

I can't believe this issue is not getting due attention.
Stealth recording with the Galaxy Watch Voice Memo app is gone since the last software update. The app remains open on the home screen and displays time briefly when I check my watch.

I was only able to shut it off by actually shutting the talk back engine using titanium. In titanium go to "freeze apps" and freeze "samsung text-to-speech engine." Of course when you do this, your phone will never be able to talk back. I am sure there are other ways to do it, but this is what I could come up with.

Yep, that's really annoying when using the stock browser! For some reason sammy took out the Google TTS options.
Here's the 2 options to avoid the annoying audio feedbakcks:
1, install Google TTS, here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2472959
2. Chrome browser.

I have the galaxy note 3. .. I can't figure how to turn this feature off... highly annoying!!!!!
This has been happening since the s3. Anytime you have anything under accessibility on, the phone starts talking. Samsung has been notified of this and have yet to fix it.

From my phone I selected Samsung Galaxy Gear on the pull down menu. Then My Apps / Installed Apps / FBQuickview / settings.
Then in Set Accessibility turned off Receive Notifications.
Pity it stuffs up the Facebook notifications on your new watch but it stops that awful voice over TTS , Talkback which plays even if it's turned off.
Potentially related. Tts enabled in stock browser out of box. Changing this from the settings menu did nothing. To disable tts in browser I had to enable the accessibility shortcut via the power key. I noticed that even though talkback was off in settings. the shortcut on the power Key menu showed that it was on. when pressed from this menu,it turns on tts. When pressed again, it turns off tts and then it finally shows in this menu that tts is off. The browser then will not use tts. I then hard reset the device and Verified this procedure a second time. Problem solved with no third party software.

Ok google call xxxx no longer working

My Moto 360 Gen 1 was working fine until two days ago. For no reason, the "call" voice commend no longer calls. It will go through the whole calling animation, and then returns to the watch face. Nothing triggers on the phone. Other voice commands still work. I can still text, open navigation and set alarm through my watch.
I have reset the watch and reinstalled Android Wear app, but nothing change. Anyone else experiencing this? :crying:
edit: It is not just the voice command. When I go to "contact" on my watch, and click "call" with my finger, the animation on the watch will appear, but calling won't trigger on the phone.
Actually, I figured it out. For some reason, the phone app lost its default priority. So every time I tried to call via my watch, the phone doesn't know which app (phone or google hangout dialer) to open. Resetting the default calling app fixed it.

Remove slow animation for Galaxy Watch notifications?

I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy Watch 42mm because it only just became available in stores in my country. (Yeah I know, a year late and its already old but unfortunately that's just the way it works in this part of the world)
Anyway...
Is there a way to shorten or remove the animation that appears on the galaxy watch when notifications are received?
Coming from my Huawei Watch GT, Apple Watch S4 and Garmin watches which immediately display the notifications, it is really annoying to have to wait for the animation to disappear before the actual message is displayed on the Galaxy Watch.
On other watches, I can quickly glance at the watch as soon as the notification arrives and the message is already displayed. On the Galaxy Watch, I usually have to check twice or wait a while and actually often end up missing the message being displayed. (Happens a lot in meetings or while driving where I don't hold my wrist up for long)
Does the Galaxy Watch Active 2 have this delay as well?
This is an excellent point. I also have the same problem with my GWA 2. There must be a way to get rid of these annoying notification animations.
I'm interested too
If there a developer mode to go into? To remove animations like on Samsung phones?

Would like 2 know too
If this notification animation was in Apple Watches, people would go crazy over it. What is the big point... It is just a small thing...

Getting pop-up video to work again on Samsung Browser

Hi everyone,
After long eight years, I'm back to Android on a Galaxy S20. Yesterday, as I watching a video on YouTube in Samsung browser I've somehow managed to put the video on pop-up mode to read some messages on WhatsApp.
What's driving me crazy, however, is that I just can't simply remember how to do it again!
As far as I can recall, the Video Assistant mode was definitely disabled. Also, I surely did not use the pop-up app view (in fact, I didn't even know it was possible).
Even if I did, the result would not be the same. Using the pop-up app view with Samsung browser, the entire browser window appears as a pop-up. What happened before was that only the video itself was on pop-up mode.
Do you have any idea of what I could have possibly done?
Thanks in advance.
Nevermind, I got it!
If I'm watching a video, receive a notification and touch on it, automatically the video turns into a pop-up window
