Simple question as I've never used a Note phone before, just curious if I would have to use the default Samsung Notes or can I instead use any Notes app I install from the Play Store (be it Evernote or what have you)? Thanks!
You can use pretty much any note app you like. OneNote, Keep, Evernote, etc.

If you mean in the S-Pen Quick Settings, any app can be added. You will have to check S-Pen optimization and compatibility with your specific app of choice though.
Any other S-Pen function can be used with any app via the Share option once completing a task (GIF, Smart Select etc)
Thanks guys, a follow-up: If I use Samsung Notes how does the sync work? Is it only on the phone or is there a webapp, do my notes sync to Samsung servers or backed up on phone? I ask because I take a lot of notes for clients and that's why I really want the Note, but just preparing the little details so I know beforehand. Thanks so much for the help really appreciated
I can not wait for a working Philips Hue app. I am checking the Gear store every few days. A few have been added since but there are either issues with it working on and off or the Widget not working. I need the widget!
Also, a Samsung Multiroom speaker update for Tizen 4! I searched this up before getting the Galaxy Watch and it looks like there is one for Tizen 3 but nothing for Tizen 4 yet.... Boo
What are you waiting for?
Yeah, it's frustrating to see so many apps available for WearOS that are not available on Tizen. I have the LTE enabled Galaxy Watch and would love to be able to leave my phone behind at home sometimes and still have access to the functionality of my favorite apps. Hoping these app developers start getting us some content on Tizen! Here's my wish list: Alert360, Amazon Music, Uber, Lyft, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Skype, Skype for Business, Google Maps.

I thought I knew what I was getting in to when I bought the watch but with many devs not updating their apps, the app list for the Galaxy watch is less than the already sparse Gear S3!
The Spotify app is pretty good so my local music needs are fulfilled but apps like Skype, SfB and Uber would be an excellent addition to the watch.
WhatsApp, I can do with the replying to notifcations. I don't need to look through previous convos.
Google Maps, I paid £1 for a companion app. Works really well for turn by turn navigation. It dosn't give you the birds eye view but it guides very very well and hasn't failed me yet. Start a journey on Google Maps (On your phone) and it will auto start the compantion app on the watch. Its called "Gear Navigation". Free app for watch but paid app app on Google Play.
Having Uber on my wrist.. Might make it too easy!
I think there is an Uber app for Tizen now
Having just transferred from gear s3 to Galaxy watch, ALL my apps (and they are a lot) that were bought for the gear (tizen3) now work for Galaxy watch (tizen4). There is a Phillips hue app in the store and an Uber app too also for Galaxy watch. You may need to change your country store to USA to see them all (there is a topic for this under the gear forum). The Uber app only though works only with a Samsung phone.
I would like to get a podcast app.
Spotify don't have podcasts on the watch app.. Why, just why?..
Audible would be another app, then I can leave my phone @ home.
I believe Tizen has a bigger market share than WearOS now, surely developers will notice?
I talked with customer service at Audible.
They have an app for the apple watch.
I sugested that they make an app for the Galaxy watch too.
They thanked me and forwarded the request.
If there are more Audible customers here, it will probably help if you did the same.
Chat with them here: https://www.audible.com/contactus?n1=something_else&n2=other
Is there any application that I can use for remotely turn on or off Wi-Fi, flash light, sound... On my Samsung device from my Galaxy watch? I think there was some application on Gear S3 but I cannot remember how it calls....

I use 'Toggles + Widget' and it works great.

That's the one I looking for. Thanks ?
Personally, I just want an app that stores notification history so that I can access old messages. There is 1 old app called NWS that does this but it drains the watch battery like MAD (5% per hour just from this app).
I am getting so frustrated by the lack of this simple feature that I will either make the app myself or return the watch.

I can't seem to find how to change my store country to US. Can you give me a link or tell me how I can do it? There are two apps which I want from the US country store: Spotify and Twitter Trends.

Hi, please see below, this is one of the several threads on the subject, basically you need a vpn app on your phone to produce a US IP address and the Sim card removed:

Thanks. I've tried it as you said without the sim card and it worked flawlessly. All that's left now is to find more apps to download

I took a lot of notes, dumped a lot of ideas, into a note-taking app on my Galaxy Note 8.0 (wifi) GT-N5110. The tablet is dead. I left it under the seat in my car and forgot about it for a summer a few years ago. Battery replacement didn't bring it back. If I knew the name of the app, the data could be online if the service isn't dead.
I'm looking for the name of a pre-loaded note-taking or journal app on the tablet. I'm not talking about S Note. This app wasn't made for the pen. Pages could have different backgrounds. Notes could be organized into groups. Anyone have a clue?
Is there a way to emulate the original image for the tablet? (Or just get a list of the pre-loaded apps?)

I think the App is called "S Note". I could not find it in the Galaxy Store and the content from my Note 8.0 does not appear in my phone's "Samsung Notes" app. I read somewhere, that Samsung had an "S Note for PC" program out, but I could not find the download. I hope it's a start.
Hi guys,
I started using Authy for 2FA. I was wondering how complicated it would be for me to create an app allowing me to show the keys on my watch.
Does anyone know a good tutorial to create a Galaxy Watch app? Is it difficult to get it connected to an app on the phone?
Thanks

Hello, I am looking for a daily planner app and have not found anything like the old school diary/ pocket calendar planner type of app.
Help
anyone?

I don't know what you mean. For calendar and planning app, I've found nothing more capable than Pocket Informant (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.webis.informant).
You can sync it to outlook on your computer with gSyncit. Has much more options than the rest of calendar apps and I have tried them all. Very potent. But I don't know if you need such a solution or something else.
I use Microsoft To Do for planning my day at work and I love it. It has an app for PC btw..
You should try AndyDo
It's an amazing planner and task calendar integration app
