*** IMPORTANT ***
Beta is over; final product is available in the galaxy store.
*** IMPORTANT ***
Hello everyone,
This is the announcement of our new Gear (Galaxy) watch app. It is basically a full-featured voice assistant using Amazon Alexa voice service running on your watch.
Today, we will be starting a closed beta and hopefully if we can solve all issues, the app will be released in 10-15 days.
The application consists of a GUI on the watch and a companion app which should run on the Android phone. (only Android , no IOS unfortunately)
The Android companion app is released at:
Alexa Gear
Without the watch app, the companion Android application is useless.
We have a few known issues, and before a full release including watch side application, we would like to identify and solve all issues.. That's the reason of this closed beta.
The app supports following Samsung Watches:
Samsung Gear S2
Samsung Gear S3
Samsung Gear Sport
Samsung Galaxy Watch
If you are interested in beta testing, please see below notes for beta testers, and provide your information in the form of following example by sending an email to mrmrmrmr(at)gmail.com
Email Subject: Application for AlexaGear Beta Test
Email body:
Name: John Smith
Email: [email protected] (your email address used to login for Samsung Galaxy/Gear App Store)
Phone Brand/Model: Samsung Note 9
Watch Model: Samsung Gear S3
Phone OS: Android 8.0
Notes for beta testers:
Beta application will be open from now on and will be closed when we believe all required type of users are selected.
Applying for the beta does not guarantee that you will be selected as a beta user. We would like to keep the beta group small with enough sample of various watch/phone models.
Beta process may continue untill the application is released.
Beta download link will be provided to selected users starting later today.
Notes about the current state of the application - also important for beta attendees:
The app is not fully released and this is a closed beta. It may cause application force-close on your phone.
The debug version of the app may cause high battery usage on your phone since it is not optimized.
You may have to install Amazon's official "Amazon Shopping" application on your phone to login, if it is not already installed.
The current version of the app outputs the voice response from Alexa on your phone and not your watch. Voice response will be sent to watch in a later release.
We expect from beta users to share their experience in the form of following only. All other communication attempts may be missed (i.e. different mail subject or wrong form of mail body);

Looks good on the video, I assume you're using the Alexa API directly (hence the Amazon Shopping log in)? And it looks like you're sending recorded audio to the phone, not STT?
I'd offer to join your beta, but I don't use Alexa anymore
Edit: Just letting you know your Play badge isn't linked to your store listing...

You are correct. application is using Alexa API directly. Amazon Shopping shouldn't be required for the final release. App should be able to login using Alexa authorization. We are going to fix it before release, hopefully.
Thanks for informing me about the badge issue. It was originally linked to the Play Store listing but the image tag overwrites it. I changed to plain text instead of badge now...
Hi there, I've been after something genious like this for Google Assistant or Alexa but just sold my Echo Dot!
With your app are we able to ask Alexa questions and receive answers on the watch or does it simply route the question to the Echo Device?
Great work either way..

You don't need an Echo device.
Initial release will supply you answers on your phone.
In a later release we'll move the responses to the watch.

But I am not sure if non-Samsung devices can attend beta. Samsung might have a limitation there. You can try.
mm i'm thinking to ask for beta test. i'm italian and i have amazon echo (i'm part of preview project to improve italian before official release in our country)
should i have time, i'll email you
UPDATE : Login problem is solved ; now we don't need Amazon Shopping to login.
OK, great I've installed both and tested a small amount, this will be amazing if you can get answers on the Galaxy Watch. Couple of things if I may.
1 - When asking for location based queries it can't answer, says I need to add to Alexa App (Not installed)
2- Says Spotify and Google maps not supported on this device when asking for them.
3 - App closes intermittently on Galaxy Watch when screen closes (15 seconds on mine)
I'll give it a good go later when children are asleep and report back.. So far though seems very good
Is possible to have this app in spanish?
final version in action....

- response will be sent to watch in 2 weeks. I know what I have to do, but it is planned for second phase. Priority is to make a release with no major problems.
- for location, timezone and metric units settings you have to use Alexa app or https://alexa.amazon.com settings page.
- Spotify and Google maps are not supported on Android applications by Amazon. I am sorry but this is not possible.
- What happens when app closes ? Do you see any errors ? What happens if you reopen it ? Does it work normally ?
Thanks.

which store you mean ?
On Google Play you should see the app (the direct link is in first post)
On Samsung apps Store (for watch part) , you can not see anything because it is in beta, not released. (see the first post if you'd like to attend beta)
This sounds interesting, so I think I'll sign up for the beta. I just purchased recently my S3 and it is still in the mail.

Was watching a video on YouTube of the learning hub app and was wandering if anyone had heard if it would be included in the American version of Samsung software at some point. Looks like another great application that utilizes multi screen, but with a new twist in linking the timing of the two applications. Would really like to know if anyone has any info on this.

Well, when I tried to download it I got a message saying that Product does not exist in the store. It appears the application that shows up in the search is for the galaxy note phone. Don't know if anybody has successfully downloaded this app but I would be interested to hear if you had.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Okay to get the learning hub app (honestly I didn't find anything useful in it but it might be for others) through Samsung apps here's what you need to do:
1. If you have a Samsung account on your tablet, remove it
2. Clear data and cache from your Samsung apps
3. Go to your Samsung apps, create a new account but list your country as United Kingdom
4. Create a new Samsung account and also list your country as United Kingdom (I suggest to open a new email account or if you have an old email address you don't use anymore/often and register your UK Samsung account with, note that you're gonna have to confirm it through a link that they will send to you via email
5. Login with your UK Samsung account and viola, download the app and enjoy it.
The app will require you to sign in with your UK Samsung account ,which I found annoying, so I removed the account from my tablet. I might mess with it later to see what all the fuss is about! I hope this helps
Hey guys, just got my note N8000 and i realize that i dont have learning hub installed, i am from philippines, do i need to install this app or should this app be included when i purchased my note? Oh and i also dont have the s suggest app

I think he means GEAR 2 SUPERFIXER (air.creatix.neoguide in Google Play Store), created by CREATIX DIGITAL.
It's currently listed at $8.99.
Description

This app will help you with most connection issues of your samsung galaxy gear, gear 2 and gear 2 neo.
Also check "Fit SuperFixer" for samsung gear fit.
Simply use the Fix button and you will get simple patches and instructions on how to fix your connection, the app detecs your phone model and checks for compatibility, some device may not be supported, but most of them work flawlessly. Cyanogen Mod Roms are likely to fail but some users reported it as working fine.
*Tested devices:
All variants of the M8
All variants of the M7
Nexus 4
Nexus 5
Nexus 7
Xperia Z Ultra
Xperia SP
Moto X
What works:
Notifications
Clocks
Find my Device
Heart Rate
Reject Calls
Media Controls
Watchface customizer
Pretty much everything
What doesn’t work yet:
No Weather
No music controller
No WatchOn
No SVoice
No Schedule
Pretty much anything that uses a Samsung Account or Samsung Services (this will be fixed in the next release)

It's promising to know that there are options if I choose not to get a Samsung phone down the line.
Real advantages?
If anyone played with this app, could you, please, post if this app has any real advantages over the free methods, specifically in the following areas that have not been working otherwise:
Weather
SMS, Email and Phone Call history browsing (I'm not talking about notifications, I'm talking about browsing previous text messages, emails and phone call history, please, be specific about it)
SMS and Email composition using S Voice
Receiving phone alarms on the watch
Fitness apps requiring GPS support (biking and hiking)
Also, the screenshot included with the app on Google Play suggests it has a way of rooting the Gear 2 (not the original Gear!) watch. Is it really the case?
I can't make it work with Samsung Note 8.0

I bought it and installed on Note 8.0 GT-N5100, I am able to establish the Bluetooth connection with Gear 2, I can sync the Address book and call out form Gear 2.
But in the Gear Manager, it only shown paired and I can't connect it. so I can't do or configure anything.
No need to purchase this app for the Note 8.0. The Note 8.0 with KK is fully compatible with Gear 2 (you just need to sideload Gear Manager). The only thing that does not work is the gear samsung app store access, but superfixer does nit fix that either...

Decided to take one for the team and test it. It seems to just have you download a slightly different version of Samsung's Gear Manager. But when I go to pair the device with it on my Galaxy S4 it just stalls out at connecting. (it could possibly be working idk) I will post screen shots of the software and what has you download. It might simply be my cyanogen 10.2.1 preventing it from working. Upgrading to cyanogen 11 to test.

thl 5000
Hey guys,
since I got my new phone the thl 5000 I can not use my gear 2 neo.
On my former phone the HTC one X I could use it with a rom.
The thl 5000 has android 4.4.2 and bluetooth 4.0 so why can I not use the gear.
Has somebody an idea maybe Superfixer.
Thank you
Does someone of you has the Nike+ app running on his watch?
I'm not able to get the app working with the gear s3, just as stand alone on the phone.
Many thanks for you help.

Afraid it was pulled a while ago. Not available on the S2 either. Unless you manually install an older version. There is a guide somewhere on here I think under the S2 section.
They pulled it I guess due to the tie in with Apple Nike+ Watch
Longun,
many thanks. Can you recommend any other running app available for the gear s3?
Manx thanks,

This is a game changer for me. Was starting to question this devices ability as a running watch. If Nike+ comes it at least gives it a little more credibility. Ok it'll never be as good as a dedicated running watch but S Health is so bad its untrue.
Still no update from nike....
That's unfortunate. Hope they fulfill their promise soon....
I contacted them again just before Christmas. They confirmed to me it was coming back as well but no ETA. At least it looks promising.

Hi Joseph,
Thanks for being a part of the Nike+ Community! It's a great platform for tracking your running performance. I understand that you would like to be able to use the Nike+ Run Club app for Android with your Samsung Gear S3. Allow me to assist you.
Joseph, as of our recent update, the Nike+ Run Club app is not available on the Samsung Gear S devices. However, we have heard your feedback and are planning on bringing it back in the future. At this point, our development team has not offered any specific time frames for this deployment. For now, you can continue to track your runs using the Nike+ Run Club app on your Android device.
Please let me know, if you have any further questions or comments. I will be happy to help you.

S-health results to Nike+
I have discovered a way to sync S-health results to Nike+ so you don't need to have the nike plus app on your wrist.
Requirements:
1. Nike Run account.
2. Garmin connect account.
3. S-health app.
4. Gear S3 (if you really want to leave you phone while you're running).
5. Internet connection (lol).
Steps :
1. Nike Run Club has a partnership with Garmin Connect. You can go to partnership in NRC to connect your Nike to Garmin Connect.
2. In S-health app, you can export your run to .gpx which can be imported to your Garmin Connect. So after you have completed your run, it will be recorded in S-health (after the data from Gear S3 synced). Then, export it to .gpx.
3. Login to garmin.connect.com (please request the desktop version), and after that you can find '+' icon on top right corner and select 'import'. Then import your .gpx file.
4. Open Nike Run Club app and refresh the activity, your run data should be there (synced).
It might seem complicated but I find it easy and simple. At least we have a workaround to stay in Nike Run Club with data come from the gear.
Hope this diagram helps in understanding how it works :
S-health-----GPX import to---->Garmin Connect<------Synced to------NRC

I've been part of a closed beta user group helping on an app called Bridge which mirrors your notifications across all your Android devices.
They just rolled out in open beta limited to 5000 users and asked me as a senior member on XDA to assist in getting more users to help test during the beta.
Bridge not only mirrors but also let's you reply, like delete etc. Basically everything as the original notification on your other devices.
They've also implemented two-way sync meaning if you dismiss your notification on one device, it dismisses it on all your devices.
You can read more and download it from here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xitlabs.bridge
You can report suggestions & bugs directly through the app.
I've been using it for about a month on my tablet and smartwatch (KW88 running full Android 5.1) and it has been working pretty good.
Even though it still has some bugs here and there (which they hope you can help squash), I must say it is pretty convenient getting all my notifications on my watch and tablet.
Below I've copied the main points from their own Play Store listing
? Mirror your notifications to other Android devices
? Reply, Like, Delete etc. directly from another device
? Two-way sync - all your devices interact with each other
? Whitelist - control which apps that can mirror notifications
? Encryption - all data between devices can be encrypted
It offers 14 days trial and costs $1.99 to unlock for life.
The link directly to joining the beta is
https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.xitlabs.bridge
Hello,
I would like to try this app, but I cannot install on my smartwatch, while on my phone installation and setup works fine. If I search the app through the play store of the watch it doesn't find it, and if I click on the link it open play store but then it says the app is non existent.
I have a Lemfo Lem8, it isn't compatible then?
Thank you

If you have purchased through Google Play, Gmail has nothing to do with. It will just validate the purchase through Google Play itself. So, make sure that you are using the same account on your new device and Google Play Store and Google Play Services can reach the Google Play servers. If the problem persists, kindly remove your account from Google Play and add it back again after restarting the device. It may fix the issues.

You might have downloaded the Google Play build. Due to Google Play restrictions, Google Play builds doesn't come up with the component to validate the licenses from our licensing servers. It can only validate that apps that are purchased from Google Play.

We regret the inconveniences caused. Based on our investigation, it has been found that Android 8 and newer versions no longer allow the apps to read the list of accounts available on the device as it used to be on the older versions. So, it will fail to activate the license purchased through our website.
We are working towards releasing a quick workaround to address the issues caused by the android restrictions. Hopefully, it will be available in the next few days. Meanwhile, you can clear the MX Player data and disable the contact permission of the MX Player. It will allow you to run the app for a few days even in the "License not verified" state.

I purchased MX Player Pro from your website but not from google play several years ago just because I can't use google play in my country that time while I can use google play now.:fingers-crossed:

Unfortunately, Paypal doesn't provide us with refund option for the transactions older than 6 months. As you have purchased several years back, it may not be possible to refund now.

Alright, while I'm still going to purchase on Google Play.
MX Player Pro worths the price.
In app "check for updates" is convenient, but I'm afraid that Google will add some new restrictions to Android in the future.
Thank you for reply
And sorry for my poor English, Idk if there are some grammatical errors... Though I'm learning English recently...

Hello there.
I have been using MX player pro for some time, purchased via Google play on my Nokia 6.
After latest update to Android pie i can't use it anymore.
I tried to uninstall it and install it again but it doesn't show up as my other purchased apps, but asks me to buy it again?
Could you help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance
