Hey guys,
i just bought my first smartwatch and am pretty excited about it.
Anyway I was searching what apps are available to download for my S2 and saw that Yelp made an app called Yelp for Gear. I was trying to search for this app but nothing popped up in gear store and it seems like for some reason they took it down from the store.
Now I know that you can sideload apps just like the phone so i am wondering if there is a website like apkmirror where they store all the apps (but for our s2) so you can download and sideload them yourself?
Thanks in advance!
Sorry.
In Tizen World most users are scared to backup... so also "sharing" backups.
This is also big difference to Android...
Best Regards

I managed to purchase some watch faces that were previously not available to non Samsung devices. Have Samsung note allowed those with non Samsung phones to buy apps?
I had to register a credit card with them, but it was easy.
Using lion gate watch face at the moment, was £0.98
Seems like a good news for non-Samsung users Which phone are you using?
Seeing paid apps in the gear app store on my LG V10 and have access to prevously bought stuff as well.
Edit: Tested purchasing as well and worked fine.

Were you able to able to register your credit card on Gear App itself or did you have to do it somewhere else online?
I have it paired with a Huawei Mate 7 and can only see free apps with no apparent option to add any credit card details.
Thanks.

I managed to register with the Samsung gear app store via the app. Didn't have to register anywhere else.
I had to do it on my computer. I kept getting error messages on the phone.
In my case it never asks for a credit card. I have even tried creating a new account on a PC. It must be geo locked or something of the sort.

Can you download the gear manager in playstore? In my case it started working with payed apps as i could download the gear manager from playstore. As long i used the app offered here in forum i only got free apps.
Sadly there are still free apps i can't see in store, like ntv, kommot or golfcard.

Hi Javan, I always downloaded the gear manager app from the play store. In the meantime I finally got a reply from Samsung and they basically said that paid apps are not supported in my country (Malta).
My problem is that I don't know at which stage this "country check" takes place.
1) Is it when I am creating the Samsung account? In this case I would be able to use a VPN workaround when creating a new account.
2) Is it when I download the Samsung gear app from the Play store? In this case I will need to root my phone and use a market unlocker.
3) Is it when I am accessing the Tizen store? In this case I have no idea ... it would be too cumbersome to workaround this [emoji22]
One way or another there has to be a workaround, I just want to avoid rooting the phone as much as possible.
If anyone has any ideas or managed to access paid apps in the store from a non-supported country, I would be forever grateful if you can share your solution.

These are the same things I've been thinking about this problem. Did you find any sollution? I cant imagine base on what it takes your location, IP address, google store, or what. What I found out today is that if you loggin samsung store Web, it displays among your info Country: XXXX
Hi guys.
1 week with a gear sport paired with asus zenfone 3 and I can't access any paid apps from Gear app... Just free apps showing to me.
Tried everything, reset, another phone (Nexus 5) and nothing.
Paid apps just show to Samsung phones?
After installing the official Gear Manager for Ios (Iphone), I had to resett my Gear.
Of course all previous apps were deleted. One was HERE WeGo.
After reinstaling all apps I could not find the app HERE WeGo any longer.
Is it out of the store or only as a paid version?

I have the same problem with many apps , i think there is 2 possibility first it's maybe because of iPhone version of gear app and the second one it is maybe depend on region of your watch
but before ios paring, do you paired your watch with Samsung or android device ?
Same issue.

Same exact issue here. Did a reset on the Gear s3 in order to switch from Beta to the officially supported iOS app. After that Here WeGo was gone and not available on the app store any longer.
If I find any solution/answer I will post it here.
Thanks for your post!

Same here: Germany. Thinking about going back to Android app
I m going back to android app as well due to lack of crucial apps like spotify . I have the LTE frontier and was happy with the standalone spotify on it.
wammer for Spotify

The APP for Spotify without any companion app is "Wammer". Very nice! See here.

Topic is about Here WeGo !
Not about Spotify. Start your own topic please.
Same here, I live in Germany. It seems that the Android version has many more apps in the store including WeGo and the standalone navigation software

It's strange. For in the beta version of the Gear Manager it was available.
Installed it then. But after reset for original Gear Manager lost the App Here WeGo.:crying:
Write to samsung support ASAP. All of you....

If you try to install most apps on android, they will show up in your iOS device under "My Apps"->"All" and you can install them from there. However, it doesn't work with all apps. And some that install (including navigator) won't work, because they need a companion app on the phone.
I like Here Wego but although I can get the US version off Play, I can only get the European version from Gear.

Latest Update for Samsung Gear S3
HERE WeGo: Latest Update for Samsung Gear S3 gets public transit and companion mode
But is not available for Ios users. Cannot find it !
The app Here wego is only available for Samsung Phones and S3, i cant find it in my LG,
Yes you need Samsung phone to be able to download it. What worked for me was to pair with a Samsung phone download Here Wego take backup of watch and pair up again with my Nexus 6p and do a restore. Now you can find Here Wego from my apps in the app store.
Hello everyone,
I am writing here because I cannot seem to find any information over the internet.
Is there an app in the Gear store that can read txt,doc,pdf and if there is - is there a easy way to transfer the files to the gear?
I searched for a whole day and while I find some applications that claim to be able to do so, also I found app in the tizen store, I am not sure if the tizen store is the same on the gear S3 and if I can preview pdf,txt and doc files on the gear.
This is really important when buying it.
Thanks in advance!
Common people it can't be that hard to check the store why is nobody responding...
Hi all, I hope im in the right place for this... just bought an S3. Is it possible to download watchfaces found on the Google App store? I have an iphone running the Gear S app which is very limited. If i browse the Google store from my computer there are some great looking watch faces but i have no idea how to get them over to my watch. Do i need to sideload them somehow?
Thanks in advance.
No. face and app only in the Gear Galaxy app store.
Other apps

"Facer" and "WatchMaker" lets you create, buy and import numerous third party faces.
Check out some marvelous smartwatch groups on Google communities.
Dear all
I have just bought the Samsung gear sport, super nice.
I have noticed that there are very few apps on the official Samsung store. Is there any way to access some "non official" stores for app? any suggestion on where to look?
Thank you very much in advance
Tizen Eco System is ONLY from Samsung...
Samsung Rules...
This is why in main only Watch Faces...
Best Regards
Thank you
So it means we cannot install anything else outside of the Samsung app store?
What is the function "allow unknown sources" for?
Thank you
Alot of apps
You know people say there are few apps on the Gear app store but if find it's about the same as Android and Apple.. though Apple Watch is more supported. But there is plenty to find if you dig in past the suggestions screen. There are alot of watchfaces yes, but i suppose lots of choice is not a bad thing. There's a lack of podcast companion apps is the only problem for me.
