Samsung recently announced the first-ever public beta program for its Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Watch4 Classic smartwatch ranges, and today the first beta build has been released to those who have registered their wearables. This is called One UI Watch 4.5, based on Wear OS 3.5 (since 3.2). Beta membership may only be available in South Korea and the United States.
If you want to participate, you need to log into the Samsung Members app on a Samsung phone connected to the watch and log into the same Samsung account on the phone and the watch. So, if you are in an eligible region, you will see a banner within the Members app, advertising the beta program to you. From there it’s as easy as signing up and waiting to be admitted. Once logged in, you will receive the first beta build as a software update for your watch.
New watch faces in One UI Watch 4.5 for Galaxy Watch4
This version comes with a user interface for dual-SIM functionality, improved notifications with support for subtext fields, as well as improvements to the integrated keyboard, including for voice input and handwriting support. There are also more options for setting alarms.
Even more new watch faces for the Galaxy Watch4
Above you can see the new watch faces included. It is unclear how long this beta program will last before Samsung decides to send a similar update to all devices. There may or may not be more beta builds sooner, it’s all a mystery at this point, but what’s clear is that, in the near future, your Galaxy Watch4 or Watch4 Classic will receive some new and improved features.
