After the recent Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro Harmony OS 4 update last month, the vanilla Watch GT 3 users worldwide can now update their smartwatches to HarmonyOS 4.0, the latest version being 4.0.0.111. This update, about 138MB in size, brings in several new features and improvements.

The update makes it easier to identify and select apps by introducing an app grid that displays the names of the apps. It also includes a practical mistouch prevention feature to avoid unintended inputs during workouts by locking the watch crown when the screen is off.

Another notable addition is the wake screen functionality, which automatically turns on the screen when you receive notifications. The update also focuses on making the interface smoother and more user-friendly with better swiping effects, clearer text, and colors for easier reading, and an alarm feature that organizes alarms by their set times.

For those who use their watch for fitness tracking, this update allows for customization of workout data and the layout of widgets for specific types of workouts, offering more detailed information on the workout screen.

To get this update, make sure your Huawei Health app is up to date. You can find the update in the app’s settings, under System & updates > Software updates.
