While these functions all work, they seem limited compared to their Android counterpart.īecause of Apple's strict App Store rules about not being able to sell apps/content/downloads from another service through App Store apps, you only get access to the free-to-download watch faces and apps for the Gear S3. The info side shows you the battery level, gives you access to the S Health part of the app (Samsung's fitness tracking service) and the Suggested apps card, with a link to download new apps and watch faces. The app's first screen is split in to two sections: info and settings. You need it to download apps and to view your fitness and activity stats. Like the Android version, the app is essential to the smartwatch. This essentially means there are two Bluetooth connections at once. Unlike the Android app, if you want to use the watch to make and receive calls, you also need to go in to the iPhone settings menu to manually connect to the Gear S by Bluetooth. There are then a few more basic steps, mostly involving agreeing to terms and going through to the next screens. Tap it, then make sure the numbers displayed on both screens match, before confirming the connection. Your watch should show up on the iPhone's screen.
