One UI Beta

[lyingfromyou]

The beta program seems to be accepting applicants. Make sure you're logged in with your Samsung account to the Samsung Members App to see if your eligible.

I didn't get a confirmation after applying.

Neither did I but it allows me to withdrawal from the beta . I wasn't able to download the plug-in either

Anytime on or after June 2nd seems likely. Kind of on the fence though.. Just got Google Assistant! Lol

Gods, please let them change the app drawer!

Hope my registration took.. They seem to have closed enrollment already

Beta is live for me.. Haven't installed it yet.

The first beta is installing on my Watch now.

I won't post again unless someone has a question for me about it! I seem to be the only one who cares. Lol

I'm definitely interested in knowing what's changed, I haven't posted here much because it isn't available in the UK so I don't have much to contribute...

Well I am not brave enough. Looking forward to hearing what you think.

I have only been able to download the plugin and Samsung Health from the Members link, but when I look for software update, it's not there. I did register and took the survery, so Idk, what gives for me.

I am now downloading and installing the Beta now. Will try and post pictures once completed. Yes, I did back up my watch before the installation, but using the beta plugin and beta Samsung Health.

From what I can see on the Watch Faces tab, instead of "Show all faces", it says "Favorites" on the left upper corner and "Manage" on the right upper hand corner. If you tap "Manage" it then shows all watch faces, except I didn't see the new ones here. The selections from the main Watch faces screen are:
Classic, Graphical, Informative, Simple, Health, Basic, and Downloaded. What is interesting, I was wearing my 40 mm Classic and checking software update, revealed no update to beta. When I put on my 44 mm non-classic and checked for update, Boom, there it was!

Not the only one, but I forgot about when the beta started and missed out on registration . Enjoy though.

"Skin Temperature During Sleep"

Is this a new setting/feature? I'm just now digging into beta.

Wear App>Watch Settings>Samsung Health

That is new, there aren't any temperature sensing features on the stock galaxy watch 4, does it actually work?

If nothing else it definitely confirms that the watch 5 will have body temperature sensing.

Good pickup, hadn't seen that yet.

They've seemed to tweak Fall Detection a bit and SOS Functionality. I'm not sure but also seems they've added Medical Information too! Let me know if these are the same as non beta.

Those tweaks are great! They are not present in non-beta.

Can someone check their watch4plugin for the Beta. I checked today and there was an update, now version 2.2.11.22061011 dated Jun15, 2022. I notice all the new watch faces are gone and the ability to choose watch 5 watches is gone, fall detection extras are gone, and skin temperature is no longer there. DO NOT UPGRADE if you want to keep these.

My plugin updated this morning but no firmware update just yet. We'll get most of that back when they launch the new Watch and or when we exit beta for the full public release
