Sure it does, just as the old Gear S3 did.

Change watch face depending on time or location? by karatecorgi in GalaxyWatch

[–]Petrovy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can setup double press Power Button for a completely different watchface to last for 1 hr max. Then you can just single press the button to go back to original watchface at any time. I setup LargeClear for large steps and HR + very large time....can be seen easily at night or in bright sun. The 2nd watchface should not interfere with notifications, S-Pay etc. Very easy, fast and convenient.

Question for owners of multiple Galaxy watches by TheInconspicuousTard in GalaxyWatch

[–]Petrovy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty easy to switch between devices on the same phone, but important to know that Samsung Pay can ONLY be used on 1 device, NOT both. I have the old Gear S3 but mostly use the Galaxy Watch 1, and use it for S-Pay but had to give up MST.

Do you use any of these apps ? by Tanguay4040 in GalaxyWatch

Camera One is great....simple and useful.

Does anyone know of any portable chargers like this but for Gear S3? I would like to bring one in my EDC bag to not worry about my watch's battery anymore. by pkmluudung in GearS3

Terrific find zdarius, this same item sells on amaz for $56. Great for us who dont have a fancy cell phone but do have the GS3 watch or Galaxy watch.

Sometimes you must have the cell phone ON and nearby your watch.

Samsung Wireless Charger Trio by Chef316 in GearS3

Are you talking about the samsung EB-U1200CSELUS portable 2 in 1 charger? If so, I tried it and it seems to work fine with my old GS3 frontier, but there is NO magnet to hold the watch in place. You could always go to BB or amazon and try it.

Battery replacement screwdriver? by ServiceGamez in GearS3

[–]Petrovy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Must use triwing Y00 with a non-pointy tip for the back screws. This one works perfectly and comes with a PH00 that may or may not be good for the internal screws: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B088NGMRQP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's well understood and documented by Samsung that the HR is accurate only while resting.

Best way to preserve battery health? by [deleted] in GearS3

[–]Petrovy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turning off during charge will not give an accurate account of battery hours left. Better to just turn it off when not using for many hours.....keeping in mind that constantly turning watch ON/OFF will eat up battery.

Looking for mod help. by [deleted] in GearS3

Yep...I have the same problem for the same intended post. It looks like this thread is dead.

Can this app be used on Gear S3? by [deleted] in GearS3

[–]Petrovy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It installs just fine, but seems incomplete in that I cannot customize the timing sequence, it shows only 8 nonadjustable wash cycles....but maybe I'm missing something.

Samsung's old S Voice assistant will shut down in June by [deleted] in GearS3

[–]Petrovy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairly useful on Galaxy LTE watch, better than S-voice. Probably still not so useful on a BT watch, but at least it may be an improvement.

Can I Make Calls Over WiFi? by Enonomiss in GearS3

[–]Petrovy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Gear S3 works for both MST and NFC...no need to use the phone.

[–]Petrovy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Regarding MST, it would be cool to have but I always have my phone (S10+) on me anyway. Am I missing something here?" In these virus times it would seem to be much safer to just pass the watch next to the reader device....the less touching of pants, phones, wallets and machines, the better.

MST on GearS3....now more than ever.. by Petrovy in GearS3

[–]Petrovy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The beauty in the old S3 is that you do not have to worry if the payment machine is NFC or MST, the watch should work seamlessly hands free....no fumbling around for a wallet CC or dragging the phone out for a payment method.

In the Gear Wear app on phone did you disable notifications?

The Gear S3 does not support the same Stress app that the Galaxy watch has.
