New Gear 2 Owner Question

[hypnospastic]

Hey all!

Just picked up my Gear 2 over the weekend, after returning the Moto 360, and I love it! I am a bit confused regarding apps for it though. Is the only way to search for apps through the Gear Manager itself? I hope not because that things irritates the heck out of me. No way of searching, slow, etc...

If there is another way, please share it with me or at least let me know of another way to see what apps are available.

Thanks in advance!

go to gear manager. choose Samsung Gear Apps. there are a variety of categories to choose from. install from there.

To delete apps: Gear Manager>My Apps>Trash can at top right>click minus sign at right of any app you want to delete>confirm

Thanks! I guess what I am wishing was a more dedicated store that might possibly have a search function. The store within the Gear app itself is a bit lacking. Thanks again!

You can search for apps in GM

Searching is no problem and quite good i must say.
But the way i use it now, is having already seen every app there is, i just look for the recent apps ordering.
There are not that many apps to just flick through them. And there are quite a few interesting ones to play and judge them.

MapMyRun is fine except the battery will die within 3 hours or less
