Wear OS 7 reaches the Galaxy Watch 8 in the US

[StormForge62]

Galaxy Watch 8 owners in the US are getting a big software update. Android Central reports that Wear OS 7, as One UI 9 Watch, is rolling out to the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic

The update was first released in South Korea and is now expanding worldwide. Reported build numbers are vL320XXU2BZJ7 and vL3200XM2BZJ7

Changes include circular Key health metrics charts, a redesigned Wearables app and watch face suggestions. Users can also pause or end workouts with the back button

Bluetooth models reportedly update before LTE models. The report is based on tipsters, Reddit and SamMobile rather than a Samsung announcement, and the writer had not yet received it

Big watch updates can make an existing device feel new, so this is good news for owners. Pausing workouts with a physical button is a small but useful change. If the update has not arrived yet, it should appear over the coming days

Has your Galaxy Watch updated to Wear OS 7 yet? And which new feature do you like most?
