Samsung S7 Messaging App for the s6? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I was wondering if the Samsung s7 messaging app was compatible with the s6? One of the main reasons I wanted to specifically use the s7 messaging app is because of the chat feature (read receipts, notifies you when the user is typing, etc.). The S6 has a enhanced messaging, but is only compatible with other s6's in one's contacts (from what i can understand). I have a couple of friends on the s7 and wanted to use the feature too. Thanks for your help in advance.

Moto X 2015 Pure and Samsung Gear S2

I currently use Sony Smartwatch 3 and Im planning to buy the Gear S2 and Im using moto x pure edition. Anyone got the same device with S2 paired on it? Hows your overall experience so far?
Im a bit concerned about the apps and notifications. Does it really show the notifications whenever it arrives on the phone? Im interested about the following app:
Whatsapp, Viber, Fb Messenger
I mainly use these app will it show notifications on the watch? Can I reply to these apps via watch?
Spotify
Can I press back or next & volume up and down just like I can with the Android Wear? Does it show the title of the song and the album art?
Phone Dialer
As we know Samsung is using their own dialer but in my case I have the AOSP dialer came default, if ever someone will call will I be able to swipe answer or reject from watch?
Calendar
As we know samsung has its own Calendar app, will I be notified with the Google Calendar showing the details and etc or the calendar reminder?
Textra
As we know samsung is using their own SMS app, but Im using Textra will or will the watch be able to detect that I got a message and I can read and reply via watch?
Gmail
As we know samsung is using their email app, will gmail be notified and the watch can detect that ita an email and Icam reply via watch?
I know there are other things that are not included here and if anyone can mention it please do.
Thanks!

I have a moto x pure edition as well, and haven't had any issues with notifications at all yet. Even in remote connection mode.
One thing to keep in mind, you can't put milk music on the watch since you don't have a Samsung phone.

Gear s3 vs Huawei watch 1st

Hi everyone! I want to buy a smartwatch for my xiaomi redmi note 4x. The main feature for me is notifications. I would like to see, read and answer my emails and others. I would like if one person send me several messages i can read and see all of them (not only their number). Help me please, what would be better for me: huawei watch or samsung gear s3? Thanks!
I owned gear s3 (non-lte version)
You can't reply to WhatsApp message by record.
Typing is very bad...(too little letters).
You can't load WhatsApp window and see chat.
There is no WhatsApp app on "tizen store".
You can't send message trough WhatsApp but if you get message you can reply just to the one who sent the message.
Any specific question you want me to check?
I used Huawei with Wear 1 and I use Gear S3 now. Both on the same Samsung S7.
First question to be asked considering Gear S3 - is your language supported by S Voice?
If not - you're out of voice reply - like me speaking unsupported Hebrew.
I am not suffering a lot from absence of voice recognition, since Google Hebrew recognition was horrible any way.
Otherwise, I operate without any problem on S3: Email, SMS, Whatsapp and Viber.
Of course, answering using watch keyboard is a bit tricky, like SMS on an old Nokia.

Whatsapp

Hi all,
I just took delivery of my new Gear S3 and had a couple of questions if someone could kindly point me in the right direction.
1. If I get a Whatsapp notification on my Gear S3 and the notification has an image attachment, is there any way I can view this on my Gear S3?
2. If I view the Whatsapp notification on my smartphone it is removed from my Gear S3, how do I view the last message again on the Gear S3?
Thank you,
Mark
1) Search for "Image Viewer 4 WhatsApp" in Gear App Store
2) Search for "WHistory" in Gear App Store
Unfortunately it's not possible without third party apps.

Hi
I have the Samsung Gear S3 and a Samsung Galaxy S7 and when my S7 is locked it won't send/push messages (particularly whatsapp messages) to my Gear S3. I have the show content on plus notifications on the Gear on for whatsapp. Not sure if anyone else has come across this as well.
Any advice to fix this would be helpful.
Thanks
Amy

How to add someone to Contacts Favorites

I just got my Samsung Gear S2 yesterday. It is an R730A, with simcard using ATT. The contacts has a search, then "Favorites" , the my profile, then contacts in alphabetical order. I have a Samsung S8 phone and it has a People Edge. Most of the contacts from the S8 People Edge made it to the "Favorites", even my sister who i have not contacted in ages (don't ask why i put her in my People Edge). That is what made me think that the S2 favorities came from my S8 People Edge. Anyway, i want to control my S2 Favorites. How can i do that?
OK, stupid question. In android contacts (or maybe it is Samsung contacts), you can designate someone as a favorite. So on my S8 when i cleaned up my favorites my S2 now matches.
