I used to have the Galaxy Fit 2 and I could receive WhatsApp notifs (and other apps) on the watch. The notifs need to be enable in the watch settings in the Wearable app.
Yes that's right, I somehow missed that, we can get notifications however we don't have an app like the one on. Galaxy watch.. Thanks.. pinning this comment
Thank you so much for another great video!. You answered all my questions. I received the watch today in the pink color. Love it so far!. Perfect for my small wrist. Nice upgrade to the previous generation Galaxy Fit 2. Hope they keep updating the watch for a long time. Have a great week!. Greetings from Germany.
based on what i saw, they are pretty much the same. (think they might be using the same sensors because the numbers were exactly the same.) However, i cannot wait to see PhoneFuel's video on it!
I bought this watch yesterday. The Galaxy Fit3 counts jump ropes with excellent accuracy. Compré ayer este reloj. El Galaxy Fit3 cuenta los saltos de cuerda con excelente precisión
if i connect earphones to my phone, and my phone is connected to the watch, is the music coming out of the watch or is it still in earphones? Sorry for my bad english
I think the part where you talk about no WhatsApp, is a bit misleading. I have the Galaxy Fit 3 and you do get notifications from WhatsApp and you can even reply with your presents. But yes, there is no dedicated app to use WhatsApp.
Features r same as fit2 and more, more being the spo sensor, emergency and fall detection amd some nice app enhanvements. How has battery life been with moderate use?
When I use the "walk" workout on Fit 3 it records the walk steps but will not add the walk step count to the daily total steps. Instead let the watch auto record your walk steps. This works sometimes but not always. A programming Sync bug Samsung needs to fix.
Does it enable the SOS function when it detects any fall? And is this able to recognise fall detection? If it accurately detects both of the things, then it's a deal! Coz' no other band in this price category comes with the very same feature.
8:02 no GPS on Fit3!?. Are you sure? Afairk GPS was available on Fit2 allowing to track your run etc. using Fit2 alone i.e. without phone, incl.. showing the route afterwards (after being connected again) in SHealth on phone. This would be a big let down.
Can I still use the watch even I turn off my phone's bluetooth? Will the time/clock still works even if it's not connected to any device? Please answer. Thank you.
I have the Watch5 Pro, but I would definitely use this. I typically wear a smart watch during my daily workout only, but I like the smaller overall size. I wish they'd sell this in the US. I don't want to pay more to buy it from an overseas seller. Thanks for the video!

hi! can this play music from your phone (i use apple music on my S23U) even if the device is not within the vicinity of your phone? for example when you're jogging?

If you are not going to use the watch for some days or a day or two how do u keep it ? Wether to power it off or just leave it the way it is on table ? Also what will be its repercussions on battery life ? And also is it ok if it gets discharged and switches off ? And also is there any need of installation of any sort of screen guard on it?
It wouldn't be okay if any battery powered device gets completely discharged and switched off and stays of for a long time. If you're not using such device better charge it to 50-60% and then switch of to store them. Charge them again after few months, this will increase longevity of the battery.
If we use the watch or samsung mobile to track my steps, will the data in the mobile samsung health app sync accordingly when they get connected once again ?
