A software update for the Samsung Gear S2 smartwatch started hitting user devices over the weekend. The update adds some new apps, watch faces, a variety of new features, and the usual performance improvements and bug fixes.
Among the apps that are now available to owners of the Gear S2 is a World Clock app, News Briefing and ESPN apps. The ESPN app will let users see scores of their favorite games on the device. Samsung also includes some new Mendini watch faces which may be especially popular for users who have purchased the Mendini bands.
Some of the new features include a new unread notification indicator. A small red sphere will show up on the watch face when there are unread notifications to be reviewed. Samsung also added a new alert to let users know when Bluetooth is disconnected. There is a new search feature available in the Contacts app, screen time out settings have been updated, and emojis are now available through the keyboard.
