The application that the Korean company Samsung promised to launch last year has been a long time ago, months after presenting the Gear S2, a model that astonished locals and strangers and that It has become one of the best smartwatches that we can find on the market on its own merits. Thanks to the Samsung Gear S application, we can manage the devices Samsung Gear S2, Gear S3 and Gear Fit from our iPhone, yes, with the limitations offered by the Apple ecosystem, where we can only interact in one direction, not being able to answer calls, messages, delay calendar events ...
These devices require an application from the manufacturer itself since it is already differentiated from most wearable terminals that we can find on the market, not powered by Android Wear, but powered by Tizen, the operating system that for a couple of years has become the only option to use in the smartwatches that the company launches on the market. Tizen offers a much more efficient battery management than Android Wear, but also all three models are designed to work perfectly with Tizen, the same as it happens with iOS and Apple terminals.
After a few years, in which wearable devices from the Korean company were only compatible with their smartphonesSamsung has acknowledged that it was foolish to limit the use of its devices to its ecosystem. In addition to this, it considerably expands the number of people who will now think twice when opting for a Gear S2 / S3, an Apple Watch or a Smartwatch with Android Wear. In order to use this app and be able to link both devices, it is necessary that they have at least an iPhone 5 or higher with a version of iOS 9 or later installed.
