Samsung’s user interface has undergone two major changes in less than 5 years. It originally started as TouchWiz before transforming into Samsung Experience and has now evolved into One UI. New Samsung phones now launch with One UI and older phones getting updated to Android Pie also get the new user interface. Interestingly, Samsung is now rolling out the new interface to its smartwatches too.
There are reports that the Galaxy Watch, Gear S3, and the Gear Sport are receiving a new update that brings One UI. The update not only brings a new user interface but also new watch features too.
There are new watch faces, a Quick Panel, support for downloading new designs of watch faces, battery optimizations, faster workout tracking, support for outdoor swimming tracking, and more. In addition, you can now wake up your watch by touching the screen and you get a notification if your heart rate crosses the set limit.

If you own any of these watches, do check the Galaxy Wearable app for the update which is about 100MB in size. If it hasn’t arrived on your device yet, you may have to wait since the update is rolling out gradually.
One UI for wearables actually debuted on the Galaxy Watch Active which launched alongside the Galaxy S10 series earlier this year.
