Is there a messaging app I could install on my Galaxy Note 8 that would have full functionality across all platforms (Tizen, Android, and Wear OS)
Android Messages is by default on HW2 and I am almost sure its compatible with Android Phone version. (Smart Watches use Android too, WearOS is a special GUI while apps are much less intensive on battery/cpus). Not sure about Tizen...

Hi,
I currently own a Pebble Smartwatch along with a Galaxy Note 3 and I was considering buying a Gear 2. I have very little info about the apps of the Gear 2 and I would like to know if there are equivalents for the apps I use the most in my Pebble:
- Foursquare (a way to do checkin from the watch)
- Evernote (access to the list, very handy when shopping)
Also I would like to know if there is any Forex app for the Gear 2. Is there any limit for the number of apps to be installed (in the Pebble you can only install 8 and it is quite annoying)?
What are your favorite apps for the Gear 2?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Cheers.

Foursquare there is an app called fithsquare that works great on the gear.
Evernote was an app in the original gear. So should be ported over soon for the gear 2.
Not sure what forex is. No right bite I have 14 apps plus all the stock ones. Not sure if there is a limit but I haven't run into any.
Favorite apps: simple Calc, ebay, glypse, qr reader, instant settings, gear alarm, fithsquare, smart ir remote, gear2cam, atooma, car finder, talking Goggles, wearable widgets, flesky messenger.
They are the ones I have installed. I have 5 shortcuts on the main screens for the ones I use most.

hi
i have just bought a S3 and i paired it with my iPhone 7
it's works pretty fine but i miss mail, reply to sms and so on.
so i looked into the app store and there are nearly Nothing in there..
i tried to connect the Watch to the honor 7 of my gf and there i can get much more apps!! like working hue apps, email, more faces and so on.
how can i get all this app from iPhone? and why the store is different? the device is the gear and not the phone !
i tried to download it from the honor then reconnect it to my iPhone but it restores the Watch before pairing and i don't know why but apps i downloaded from the honor doesn't appear in the "my apps" section on the galaxy app store from the iPhone
any idea how to solve this problem?
thanks
This problem cannot be solved from your side.
The problems are:
1. Some apps require a companion app, which only available on Android, in order to work. iOS will probably not have these as Samsung does not provide any SDK for devs to work on.
2. Samsung use manual filter for apps. A filter is like this: Gear S3 & iOS devices, S7 Edge & S3 BT and so on. If apps do not include this filter, they won't show up on your device. You can ask devs to include this filter if the apps are standalone.

There are various usefull apps available for Android Wear, while many of those are not available for Tizen.
An example would be Strava.
Would it be possible to port the APK's over to Tizen for the Gear S3 with minimal modification required?
I own a Polar M600 and would like to be able to use some of the apps from that watch, on my Gear S3.
Nope. Different architecture.
I have a very old Gear 2 neo. Is it possible to install a new firmware and make it more modern?
Please help me
Original Gear 2 works well. Not others OS or watch are really better nor Wear OS or all other limited OS in Fitbit or Garmin Watch. Even the new Gear S3 and up are really near of the very old Gear 2, I have also few apps that works in Gear 2 and not ported on recent model
Ok but after Note 9 update (Android PIE) I don't receive full text messages (Whatsapp and Telegram) but only notify. For me this is a problem.... and I want understand why...
Do you all think that Samsung would eventually feel pressured to add support for Galaxy Watch 4 pairing in the Google Wear OS app? For those who would rather not use Samsung services on non Samsung devices.
They wouldn't even have to enable all the features you loose anyways like ECG and Blood Pressure. I have a OnePlus 9 and just think it would be more seamless instead of needing the Galaxy Wearables app.
Or if it does not even fall to Samsung and is just a matter Google adding Support for the Watch in their app.
No, I don't think so. If anything, it seems like other WearOS 3.x watches might start moving to separate pairing apps. We don't know for sure yet though.
Also, would definitely prefer Google Wear OS app with my OnePlus 10 Pro!
