The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 gets an official app from Samsung, which makes communication more convenient.

The Samsung watch will get a real walkie-talkie app. Actually, the app can be compared to that of Apple. But, better late than never. An application like this is certainly useful for your watch. The app is only available for the Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic. So it only works with the latest wearables from Samsung. Predecessors are not compatible.

Your friends, acquaintances, neighbors and family must also have this watch, otherwise it will be difficult to talk. This is because they must also have the latest version of the watch. That is a big disadvantage, not many people buy a new smartwatch en masse. Especially if their old one is still good. Perhaps Samsung will change tack in the future, if use lags behind. The Google Play description of the app says that “two or more users” can have direct conversations.

Usage

To use the new feature, you need to sign in to your Samsung account. You do this via a smartphone that is connected to the smartwatch. The company recommends using the app for the first time if it is actually connected to the watch. Then you can open channels to have conversations, connect to the watch of someone you know (must be nearby) and then start talking. This can be done by pressing a large microphone button in the middle of the screen. Of course it is also possible to switch off the function (afterwards). The continuous chirping in your watch can of course be experienced as disturbing for those around you.
