I apologize if it has been asked, but I couldn't find anything on it. I have an LG V10 and I know Samsung users get the "full" store. For example, my friend has the same watch but has a Note 4 and he can download the Pip Boy watch. Is there any way to install the Samsung version of the store, or an I just out of luck?

I and a lot of others have the same issue. I thought it was because I have a non Samsung phone, but I tried through my wifes Note 4 and no luck.. Can't find/see and search everything. SUCKS!!

That's really unfortunate. I thought for sure it was a Samsung/non-samsung issue. I guess I'll have to wait it out in hopes of an update to the store ?
Hi,

Hey everyone! So I don't know if I crazy or just blind but how do yoy find all of the downloaded samsung apps in the galaxy essentials app. It popped up and said I had 5 updates but when I went there it just brought me to the home page and I am having to hunt for the apps I have downloaded to update them. Is there not a My Apps page like the playstore? Someone please tell me what I'm missing! Thanks!
Oh and I'm on the Verizon variant of the note edge.
You mean the Galaxy Apps store? They're under purchases.
Weird thing is I don't have an option to see purchases. Where do you view purchases?
Here is what the menu loos like.
you have to sign in first after that you can find the purchase

I am signed in. You can see my email address that I blocked out. I have tried singing out then back in again and still won't show purchases. I even bought a damn app and still nothing. What the hell.....
Really strange! !!
In my opinion clear data and cash in app manager
Are you rooted?
If yes, try making a nandroid, resetting, and seeing if the store shows the option then?
Which note edge model are you on?
Or perhaps a less extreme option, wipe data for Galaxy Apps in Titanium? or just from settings if you don't have Titanium.

I have run through app manager and have no clue what the actually name of the app is. I cleared the widget which clearly wasn't it.
I'm not rooted as I am on Verizon but I think I'm going to do a factory wipe if I can't get this work. Thanks for everyone's assistance.

That confirmed the main issue. I don't have that app. I only have galaxy essentials from the menu button under the app drawer. Can anyone pull that galaxy app apk and post it to see if I can install it. I have been unable to find it anywhere on samsung website.
It's not in my app drawer or in my app manager.
Search in all app if you don't have it in there something wrong with your Rom!
I'd have to agree. If you don't have that app, there's something SERIOUSLY messed up with your rom.
I attached the apk I pulled from my sprint phone. See if it works. It's supposed to be a system app so I'm not sure how that'll work . . .
(Sorry for the delay. My upload speeds are TERRIBLE (like 42KBps or so))
So after screwing around with this most of the day I eventually reformatted and started from scratch with no success. I read over on a Verizon note 4 that some of them didn't have the galaxy apps on their phone either. Can anyone with a Verizon Edge chime in to see if you have the galaxy app please.
Oh and thanks for everyone helping out and posting. I appreciate the help.

I tried it but it comes back and just saying not installed. I even searched for it on samsungs website like another note 4 owner recommended using apps.samsung.com but apparently that site refers you to the new s6 so not even that will work. So damn weird. Everything else works fine and I can even update the apps from the essential widget. Thanks again for posting the apk.

Ugh. I'd say your best option would be to root, but then that's not an option for Verizon . . . You could take it to the shop and see what they say about it. There's no reason to NOT have the Galaxy App store. And if Verizon's removing it on purpose, that's ridiculous.
And if you think apk for international model could be useful let me know
Just downloaded it from the Gear app store, and seems to be working nicely from a quick glance. Didn't book a car yet, but it connected to my account, found my location etc. Also seemed to be working on 3g with the watch remotely connected to the phone (not via BT), which means it should work even if the phone isn't on you (though I'd totally test this for real before counting on it )
Annoying that you need a companion phone app even if you have the normal app installed on your phone, bit seems to work well.

Agree, though at least it seems to also work when connected remotely to the phone, so hopefully this means you don't need to have the phone with you for it to work.

I also can't find it in the store. Probably not available in every country...
I'm in the US though. My guess is the same Samsung-phones-only restriction that applies to paid apps also applies to free apps that support some kind of in-app billing - which Uber would have to, if it plugs into a separate app instead of the regular Play Store one.
I really hope Samsung fixes this soon.

Hi everyone! Can anyone get the installation file from the Samsung App store and upload it here? it's possible?
Even with paid apps now showing up, presumably meaning everyone should have access to all the same apps, I still can't see the Uber app in the store!
Maybe the S2 sport and classic have different hardware numbers or something, and Uber did something dumb and only enabled the app for one of them? I'm on classic; any other classic users want to chime in with whether or not you can access the Uber app?
I'm on sport version and I still can't find this app in the store. News about Uber is fake? I didn't find any information about it but this forum

I tried contacting Uber support about this and they replied with instructions to download the phone app. Replied letting them know it's customary to read support tickets before answering them. Will update if I get anything useful from them.
Just switched phone from Samsung Galaxy Alpha to Blackberry Priv. Uber S2 app was available on the Alpha but can't find it on the Priv. Pretty annoying. Anyone else notice the same?
I can not find the app in Gear Store - Have a Gear S2 sport version - bought in Norway.
Uber responded this on twitter to me:
"@SimenPR Please note that the Uber app is only available for the S2 model."
Very little helpful in other words.... I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge..
nothing here - Gear S2 Classic + BlackBerry Priv

I didn't touch anything. Saw i had a new notification and that is what popped up. It says to push and hold back button to install samsung pay. When i do that it opens galaxy apps on my phone (note 5) and i get a message stating app is unavailable. Going to l go to the store tonight or tomorrow and try it to see what happens.
Hmmmm....Hopefully this is finally an end to the extremely slow rollout

I got the same message. The app is installed on my watch (Gear S2 Classic Platinum with Bluetooth). My phone is a S7 Edge. I get the "This app is not available for your device. (com.samsung.android.samsungpay.gear.2290:4002)" error message. Check occasionally, to see if there is an update to the phone app, but so far nothing. BTW, I have been using Samsung Pay, on the S7 Edge from the day I received it, and it works fine.
Can't they just not make it to where you can select, either Samsung Pay or Android Pay???
Here we go!
Ok. Got this far anyway. So disappointed.

I finally found Samsung Pay Beta app, but sadly I got the same error. Gear S2 Classic Bluetooth/Wi-Fi in USA here.
I haven't gotten the watch firmware update yet, but my Gear app on my Note 4 phone just started showing a new link to "Samsung Pay Beta." Clicking on it (so far) gets an error message: "this app is not available for your device."
where do I download app?
New update. Won't let me add any of my Wells Fargo cards at this time, but it would let me add my Amazon Chase Visa. Going to give it a try here in a little bit. Wish me luck!

Sometimes damn auto updates creates "funny" sideeffects...
Samsung is also known as "Master of Changes"...

Hey I know this is from 2 months ago but I thought I'd let you all know (and anybody who might find this page via Google) that I figured it out!
OK so you know how when you are first attempting to setup the watch it asks you to visit a website? You HAVE to visit that website if you want it to work on a non-Samsung phone! You cannot go to the Play Store and search for the Samsung Gear App. Why Samsung did this I have no idea. Basically what they have are TWO DIFFERENT Samsung Gear apps that appear to be identical; except one is for Samsung phones and one is for all others. WHY THEY DECIDED NOT TO STATE THIS ON THE APP PAGE IS BEYOND ME.
Anyway if you are having this problem, uninstall your Samsung Gear app. Then go to your watch, go to settings and choose the option to connect it to a new phone. On your cell phone, go to the website it tells you to. The website will ask you if you are using a Samsung phone or another phone, so obviously don't click the Samsung option. This will give you a direct link to the Samsung Gear app that is meant for all other phones.
Again it's a really bizarre thing on Samsung's part but I am so glad to have figure it out and I hope my post helps you guys or anyone else Googling this issue in the future.
EDIT: The website is http://apps.samsung.com/gear
I've had this watch for a few months using it with my Pixel XL and Samsung pay has been working fine since I got it. Recently it hasn't been working and every time I open the gear app I get a message saying Samsung pay has stopped working. I tried resetting the watch, uninstalling everything related to it from my pixel and set it up as if it was new. Now there isn't even an option for Samsung pay in the gear app and holding the back button does nothing. Does anyone know why it disappeared?

I'm in the U.S. I did hear that the international version doesn't support Samsung pay but it's definitely a U.S version. And it's not in the settings of the gear app. Pretty much everywhere there used to be something about Samsung pay it's now missing from.

That's really odd too that shouldn't happen. Can you try to download samsung pay apk for gear watch online and see if that works
Here https://www.sammobile.com/apk/samsung-pay-for-gear/samsung-pay-for-gear-1-4-1404/
If your rooted use an older version like 1.2 and see if that works
Installing the APK didn't work. I'm not rooted but I do have the beta of Android O installed. Maybe that has something to do with it

Oh well that could most definitely cause that not to work as samsung pay isn't made for that version of Android right now

Oh well. Hopefully Samsung will update it soon to be compatible.
I just downgraded back to Nougat and can confirm that the beta version of Android O is what broke Samsung pay. So just a warning to anyone who has a gear S3 and wants to try Android O, you won't be able to use Samsung pay.
