Hopefully this means we'll finally get a native Maps app for Tizen smartwatches soon!

I'd be happy to get wearable widgets back

Have you guys tried installing Wear OS and connecting to the Active 2 yet? Mine is taking forever on the "Getting your watch details" screen.

That won't work with the Active 2. It runs Tizen, not Wear OS. That app is to connect a Wear OS watch to a Samsung phone.

Silly me. I thought that since it was in the Galaxy Store it meant I could use it to connect (and do other stuff) with my Active 2. Doh!

Have you tried Navigation Pro app?
It works really well and you can select whether or not starting a navigation in your phone auto stays that navigation on the watch.

I haven't tried it yet. I'll give it a look. Thanks!

BTW, I think your full name is showing in the Play Store screenshot if that matters to you.

Navigation Pro will it help me I have this route I walk in my neighborhood and it's a circle and I am trying to figure out when I leave my house an do the circle and get back to my house how long it took and how many miles? I know S-Health shows your steps and they say 10,000 is a mile but not everyone's steps are the same. I am trying to figure out from my house around this circle and back if it's a mile or not or how much further I need to go to say ok from here to here is a mile. I don't really need to be navigated unless it tells me in walking how far a mile is and how many minutes to get there. I was thinking of trying this. I guess I could try Google Maps on my phone I just don't want to have to keep pulling it out of my pocket to check. Thanks!
