Does the new Galaxy Watch, more importantly the new version of Tizen, allow left handed users (who wear their watch on their right wrist) to flip the watch 180 degrees so the buttons face inward (face towards your left hand)? Is there a setting that addresses this?
The Apple Watch has this exact setting. It asks what wrist you are wearing it on and which side you'd like the crown facing. Super easy but huge usability advantage.
But I'm a Samsung user. I've had Gear watches for several years. So no Apple watch here. Just jealousy that they address ALL users, not just the majority.
Most people are left wrist wearing people so it's not a big deal. I get it. And before Tizen 3.0, you could always swipe down to GO BACK, but they stupidly removed that. Hitting the back button is an awkward experience to say the least if you are a left handed / right wrist wearing user.
So is there a setting that addresses this watch flip like Apple Watch does?
