Samsung is not forgetting its older smartwatches, even though it has switched to Wear OS for its latest models. Right now, Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 is getting a new update that adds two watch faces of One UI 5 Watch.
The fresh update brings two new watch faces to the Galaxy Watch Active 2 – Stretched Time and Perpetual. These watch faces were introduced with the Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, which runs on Wear OS 4 with Samsung’s One UI 5 Watch.
The update does not change the operating system of the Galaxy Watch Active 2, which remains on Tizen OS. Samsung has confirmed that it will not update its older Tizen-based smartwatches to Wear OS, but it will continue to support them with security and feature updates.
If you have received the update notification then install it now. Users need to open the Samsung Wearable app on their connected phone, go to Watch settings, select Watch software update, and tap Download and install.
Samsung has been updating its smartwatch lineup with the latest One UI Watch 5 software, which debuted with the Galaxy Watch 6 series. However, not all Samsung smartwatches are eligible for the One UI Watch 5 update but the company promised to bring some of the new watch faces for them. Right now, Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 has started receiving a new update that adds One UI 5 watch faces.
The new update of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 comes with two faces of One UI 5 Watch update, which are Stretched Time and Perpetual. These watch faces were previously exclusive to the One UI Watch 5 devices, and they offer a minimalist and elegant design.
Users of Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 are getting the new update in Europe with firmware versions R840XXU1DWK2 /R850XXU1DWK2. The Tizen OS version stays unchanged at 5.5.0.2. The Galaxy Watch Active 2 is expected to get the same update soon.
