Samsung is gearing up to roll out its stable One UI 8 Watch for the Galaxy Watch 7. The company recently pushed an update to the Watch 7 Manager app, suggesting the rollout is just around the corner. The app update is currently available in South Korea, but it should reach global markets in the coming days.
Samsung updates Galaxy Watch 7 Manager app, hinting at imminent One UI 8 Watch release
Samsung opened the One UI 8 Watch beta program for the Galaxy Watch 7 in June, yet the stable build hasn’t arrived. The Galaxy Watch Ultra, which entered the beta program around the same time, picked up its final build back in July. It’s unclear why Samsung is taking so long to push the update to the Watch 7.
Last month, the company officially wrapped up the beta program for the Galaxy Watch 7 after releasing five beta builds. Throughout the testing phase, Samsung focused on improving system stability and fixing bugs to improve the overall user experience ahead of stable rollout. Unfortunately, the stable version contines to eldue the market.
Now, the latest update to the Galaxy Watch 7 Manager app should pave the way for the stable One UI 8 Watch rollout in the coming days. Samsung doesn’t update this app frequently, so the timing points to an imminent release of the new software. We can assume that the app update may bring some compatibility tweaks so that the Galaxy Watch 7 runs the new firmware smoothly.
Based on Wear OS 6, One UI 8 Watch brings a refreshed user experience for Galaxy Watch users. The update introduces redesigned app icons and a revamped app drawer layout. With the new custom tiles, you can combine information from multiple apps into a single tile. We will let you know when Samsung pushes the new software for the Galaxy Watch 7.
