Any way to determine up time? - Samsung Gear S3

Is there an option somewhere on the s3 to see the time since first powered on similar to android's uptime?

you can only see how long the watch has been on through the gear app on the phone. click on the watch battery percentage and it will tell you.

Has the app changed in a year? The Gear app doesn't currently display uptime when viewing battery info.

Always on! Also when is on my desk

Hi, is there a way to disable feature that turn off display when i don't wear the watch?
Nope. it only stays on when you're wearing it. It sees your pulse/heart rate to know if it's being worn.

It should turn off when on your desk. Check the settings under display and see how long the timer to turn it off is set for. Maybe it is too high.

OP is asking if this can be disabled. As I said, it's not possible.

You are looking for an app called: I am alive
Find it in the app store, it's free. It will let you keep the active watchface always on (so not the AOD).

Thanks for the tip, for now i use that app but it was better to have watch working normally (with dimmed watchface) also without wearing it...
After 1 year no news? It's still not possible to have the watch full working without wear it?

Schedule auto restart

I was watching a video of tips and tricks for this phone and I saw one tip and now I can not find it in settings. The tip was that you could schedule the phone to auto restart. Just had to pick the day and time and frequency. I have searched all through phone and I just can't find it. I then searched for video I watched and I can't find that now. Anyone offer some assistance please.

Lol thinking too much. You can only restart your phone once a week with the settings.

Actually it defaults to once every 24 hours if you don't schedule it yourself. I bet a few of them think they have an issue because of this.

Maybe on your US-device, but NOT on the international one (SM-G955F)!
When "once in a week" is not set, it won't restart every day!
Can someone tell me the benefit of auto restart? I can do this on my phone but not sure for the benefit.
No need for that. My phone restarts on its own like every other day...
Can someone tell me if the AT&T model supports this feature or did they remove it?

It is in the AT&T model.
A great feature of the settings panel is the lookingglas. You can search for keywords and directs you to the relevant setting or section.
Feature enabled but no restart
I have it set restart ok Mondays at 5am but nothing happens. To test I've set it for 10 minutes in the future and set the phone down. Nothing happens. Factory reset and still nothing. Any idea? Does anyone know the package responsible for this feature?

Tizen 4 Update - Optional paid Health Widget?

Hey there,
After installing the Tizen 4 update today, I saw some message about a discounted Health widget but have no idea where to find it. Can anyone provide more info?
I dont have it yet, but are you sure it didn't say "discontinued?" Perhaps you were using one that was replaced by something new?

It's possible! I was half asleep when I installed the update. lol
yes the health widget is discontinued, this is the one that showed the whole day and if you were active, or inactive or sleeping etc.
there isn't a widget that shows all this information in tizen 4.0,

I doubt the plugin has anything to do with battery life on the watch..
Not the watch..It's my phone that's having the issue..

That's the problem that I'm in now...It's like going in a straight line in a round-a-bout! Watch forum says to check in S21 forums, there they say to check here! It's akin to a dog chasing its own tail!
Anyways, I uninstalled the app and deleted the watch profile from the phone leading to factory resetting the watch..now all's hunky-dory.

I do not remember authorizing any updates, but this started last year in December. And I did have it set to auto update. I had called Samsung support they told me my battery was shot and they could replace it and since my warrenty was expired it would be almost 200.00. So the watch has been sitting since then.

I wish I could do this but my watch does not stay on long enough to go through the options.

This doesn't read too hard to do.
In the state it is in now it's no use so imho nothing to loose.
