Cool thanks, I just installed it and set it up on my phone. Now, when I go to the app on the Gear, it says "connecting" and then gives me the updates that are on the phone. Is this app not going to automatically notify me of updates on the Gear? Do you have to manually connect every time...

Hey thanks! I will try this. By the way, in the video when you opened your app drawer, I think I saw MailDroid. Have you figured out a way to have its notifications show up on the Gear?? That would be awesome!

... through the use of a 3rd-party app or other trick? Thanks!

... The only place I know of is through the Gear Manager, and there are very few apps there. I don't know of a way to search the Play Store by device. Is there any other additional way to find apps for the Gear? Thanks!

Hello! I've been using Maildroid for a while as it enables me to get push notifications for my Yahoo mail, which as far as I know is still not possible with the stock email app. I am considering switching to using the stock app though, both for Yahoo and Gmail, as I would then be able to read...

Where exactly did you find this app? I searched the Samsung app store and found it, but it doesn't say it will work on the Gear. For that matter, where exactly are you finding apps for the Gear? I thought the only way was through the Gear Manager, which when I do, is quite disappointing as...

Hello! So I just noticed that when I receive a text, my screen turns on and stays on, presumably for the full 10 minutes that I have set for screen timeout, wasting battery. (I've always had my phones set that way because I turn off the screen manually anyway and I don't like it turning off in...

Yeah I had turned off the showing of the icon in the status bar on the phone, and then I didn't get any notification on my watch either. Just wanted to confirm that was what did it, and not something else. Looks like it was. I wanted to get a notification on my watch but not the icon on the...

That's where I looked (and just double-checked)... I'm not seeing it. I'm on Verizon. I don't know if it might be an option that they disabled (?). I see the ringtone and notifications, but not the LED light.

Hi! Is there a way to disable the LED light notification for the stock email app? I have the 3rd party Light Manager app installed on my phone, and in there I've disabled it, but it appears the email app overrides that setting. I use Maildroid for my email but have also set up my Yahoo email...

Thank you so much!

Hi, Has anyone found the manual online for the Gear? I found the U.K. version. I assume our features here are the same, but just wanted to see if anyone found the U.S. version. Thanks.

Hi, I use Maildroid for my email but also set up my Yahoo email through the stock email app so I can get notifications on my Galaxy Gear. It worked, but then I turned off the option on the phone to have an icon show in the status bar when I get new email in the stock app, as I didn't want to...

I can't wait to get mine. Since you mentioned you left your phone in another room... how far is the Bluetooth range?

See my response to Sooks about it being water resistant (it is to all the things you mention). The battery thing, true, but I still think it'll be totally worth it. I'm not a Samsung rep, I promise, haha. But from all the demo videos and articles I've seen, I'm super excited about this, and I...
