Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro update adds exclusive outdoor features
Samsung recently launched Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic with several new features and attractive looks too. But the older watch, the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, is getting some new things too. The Watch 5 Pro is for people who like to go outside and do things like hiking, running, and walking.
One UI 5 Watch update includes improvements in sleep tracking and personalized heart rate zones during workouts. But the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro gets some special additions. Now, the watch can now help you with your outdoor activities. It can tell you how long it will take to finish a route, how far you have to go, and how high you are.
However, the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro stands out as the only Samsung watch that supports GPX files for route information and turn-by-turn navigation on the wrist. Additionally, the route workout option now supports walking and running, alongside cycling and hiking.
Samsung activated the skin temperature sensor for menstrual cycle tracking in April, and recently, WhatsApp was launched for the watch.
Samsung has released a new update for the Internet Browser app with version 23.0.1.1. The update, which is about 60MB in size, brings some improvements and bug fixes to the app.
According to the changelog, the update fixes an issue of external apps not launching when making payments on some websites. This issue was reported by some users who faced problems while trying to use payment apps on certain sites. The update resolves this issue and ensures a smooth and secure payment experience for the users.
The update also improves the performance and stability of the app, making it faster and more reliable. The update is rolling out gradually to all users and can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or the Galaxy Store.
