Nothing for me in the UK either. I look forward to checking for an update manually every day for the next month lol

I just updated. I like the way notifications look and what they added to the sleep tracker.
 
Nice! It's not out in Canada, yet.

How are you liking it so far? Did they fix the problem of needing to enter the PIN twice after putting it on?
Didn't have that problem. Haven't tried it yet, Right now on my GW6 classic.
 
I don't know about anyone else but this has improved the battery right off the bat. I haven't charged mine since Thursday and I have 59% left

Got the update!

There are a lot of nice new features, although I would rather complain about the stuff I don't like...

Notably, the ability to transfer the watch to a new phone. Apparently I can do this, but then if you want to transfer back to the original phone you have to reset the watch... WHY would they do something so dumb! They were inches away from a great feature and then just fumbled the ball at the last hurdle... I don't know sports, ok.

Dissa-POINTED!!!
 
Something I have found that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere is that a uterus is no longer required to measure skin temperature during sleep*.

*tested in the UK, who knows about FDA land.
 
Have you set up Samsung Pay on yours? (I'm wondering if that double-unlocking problem is tied to that.)
I noticed that after the update I now have to enter the Pin multiple times throughout the day when I need to use Samsung Pay, even though I didn't take the watch off, this didn't happen to me before the update.

I am using the new Universal Gestures feature (which btw kills using the other gestures like shake to answer calls (n)), anyway the issue that I am finding is that every time the screen dims back to either screen-off or ambient, I hear a click-sound. Anyone else notice that?
