![]() I turned on my Galaxy Watch 4, opened the Wearable app on my Flip 3 (Fold 3 below for illustrative purposes), and the two immediately talked to each other and threw up a pairing code. On a Samsung phone, the pairing process is fairly smooth. On other Android phones, you’ll need to download it from the Play Store. Galaxy Wearable is already pre-installed and ready to pair your new smartwatch. If you’re on a Samsung Galaxy smartphone, the good news is that most of the heavy lifting is already taken care of. The Wear OS app from Google will not see or be able to interact with the Galaxy Watch 4 in any capacity. Like when Samsung was using Tizen, the new Galaxy Watch 4 based on Wear OS uses Samsung’s Galaxy Wearable app to get connected to your phone. Despite the new Galaxy Watch 4 using Wear OS, I’m sad to see that the pairing process is just as rough. While Samsung’s past wearables have always offered great hardware and software, one reason I’ve been hesitant to call them “the best” is the frustrating act of using them with a non-Samsung phone.
