galaxy watch compatibility issues

[gamerlad]

Important apps to me I can't use on galaxy watch 3 that I could on apple watch.

Yale home

Hive

Apple music

Google pay

All these worked flawlessly with apple watch and was day to day life.

Also can't pay in shops with watch as samsung pay only allows 1 out of 5 of my cards and Google pay doesn't work on watch!!!

Considering samsung is a direct competetor they really lack in feature support!

even ECG doesn't work on the watch 3 yet!

Google Pay is not supported by the Watch3. Google Pay is an Android based app. The OS on the Watch3 is Tizen derived, thus not compatible.

The Watch3 supports Samsung Pay but that with a limited number of card providers.

However, in the UK, the recently announced Samsung Pay Card powered by Curve is your answer. This makes Samsung Pay compatible with almost all banks and card providers.

I can vouch for this! Hope this helps! 🙂
