Reading some reviews only one I read recently pointed out that using gear s3 on a not Samsung android smartphone you cannot use s voice to perform text to speech in answering, for instance, SMS or mail or whatsapp, etc
Is it really true? That's a shame!!!
What else will I miss using a not Samsung android phone?

I have the Gear S3 Frontier paired with a OnePlus 3 and S Voice is working, I can answer and write messages by using my voice but I can't read my text messages or my emails, I just have a notification when it comes, and I can answer it that way, but there isn't a real application "messages" and "e-mail" as you may have with a Samsung device.
I'm trying to look for it.
That's OK. I mean, you can answer mail, SMS, chat (hangout, whatsapp) notifications using s voice.
But you can't read old sma, mails, chats, etc right?
I use android wear and apart from hangout where you have a dedicated app it's the same. That's OK for me.
I just need to be able to use voice to text to answer current notifications.
Anyone with a mate 9 can confirm it?

Hi all, I have a SW2 with a Galaxy Note 3.
I love SW2, but I miss a lot of notifications.
I would like to view on the watch all the emails I receive (I have 3 Gmail account + 1 Gapps account).
With GMAIL extensions, sometimes I get notifications, sometimes I do not get them... above all on my Gapps account. How to solve?
Moreover: I use hangouts both for SMS and chat.
If I receive 2 SMS and 3 chat, I can read on the phone (using WatchIt): you have 5 notifications, but I cannot read neither the SMSes nor the Chats.
Same thing with Whatsapp: I cannot read the text, I can read only: "You have a new whatsapp message" (or similar).
I have different ringtones, so I already know if I have a Whatsapp, SMS, Hangout or other message.
Is there a way to read them all on the watch?
Which app should I use?
Whatchit does not seem ti permit it.
Thanks in advance

Hello, first sorry for my bad english. Unfortunately, I have to write with Google translator.
I have for a few days, the Samsung S2 Gear Classic. After I set it far, I'm very happy with it. However I read an issue with my mail on the Gear S2.
Namely, the full text of a mail to me will not be displayed. After a certain number of characters of the text is easily interrupted. This is in any longer mail like this.
Connected is the Gear S2 with the LG G3. I have tried it with the Apps GMail, AquaMail, K-9 Mail and the preinstalled on the LG G3 Mail app. However, in no single app the complete text appears to me from long mails.
Is this a bug or normal?
With Android Wear it was at least the App GMail so that here the complete mail text has been displayed.
If with you the complete mail text is displayed and if so, with what Mail app?

Same for my on my gear s2 classic...very frustrating but probably not a bug. Hoping that Samsung changes this in a future update, but they may or may not...
Just bought the watch today and so far I'm liking it. I realized that some people were posting you could not reply to Hangouts messages from the watch and after searching over some old threads on another forum I found one about the Gear S where some guy said that after installing the Android Wear app from the Play Store all of a sudden he could now reply to Hangouts messages through his watch. It didn't make sense why that would work, but I downloaded Android Wear to my phone to check it out anyways. Miraculously now I'm able to reply to Hangouts messages from the watch just like you can from the messaging app, etc. And best of all since I use Google Voice for all of my calls and SMS messages through Hangouts for all of my text messages, when I reply to a hangout from my watch it shows up on the other persons phone. If I could only figure out a way to get all of the Google Voice alias numbers for my contacts I could make all incoming/outgoing calls and texts from my phone AND watch use my Google Voice number...
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.
Hello,
I've been using the watch and I'm pretty satisfied with the experience but I am looking at expanding the user experience without my phone next to me. I have LTE watch. For example I can easily send text messages but most of the people are using FB Messenger or whatsapp- is there any way to send messages from watch on those two apps? I can only reply if I get the message but cannot start the conversaton. Thank you
Yep. This the problem which I also looked into.
There are only apps ( more/less smart) like "Informer" which work over notifications.
Catch is that there is no native Whatsapp app for Wear OS.
Untill someone make native Wear OS whatsapp client - situation will not change
Basically it should not be so hard. It can work somehow like Whatsapp client for desktop ( Windows ). An app like that i got for Tizen on Galaxy Watch
I use Samsung messages, but for some reason it does not display the Sender's name, only the number. I already have a number both in the international format and in the local, all the same, only a phone number. Anyone else?
you can sideload the app but whatsapp atm can't login twice
