大多数智能手表运行WatchOS(适用于Apple Watch(Apple Watches))或Android Wear。尽管三星是(Samsung)Android智能手机中的大腕之一,但它还是选择为他们的手表系列配备Tizen ,这是运行(Tizen)三星(Samsung)智能电视(TVs)的同一操作系统。
这意味着,除非开发人员决定移植他们的应用程序,否则您不会在Galaxy Store中找到所有出色的(Galaxy Store)Android Wear应用程序。但是,实际上不乏可下载到Galaxy Watch的令人惊叹且有用的应用程序。以下是截至 2021 年的一些最佳Galaxy Watch应用。(Galaxy Watch)
1.三星智能手表(Samsung Smartwatches)的Facer Companion
三星(Samsung)有一个不错的本地表盘商店,有许多免费和付费的选择来装饰你的手腕。然而,Facer Studio及其创作者社区制作了一些我们见过的最好的智能手表面孔。

2. Spotify
几乎每个平台都可以使用每个人最喜欢的音乐流媒体应用程序,其中包括三星的(Samsung)Tizen手表。Spotify手表应用的主要功能是充当您当前使用的播放设备的遥控器。在大多数情况下,这意味着音频将从您的手机流式传输。

3. 查找我的手机
由于您的Galaxy Watch确实与您的身体相连,而您的手机却没有,因此如果您不小心让它从沙发背面滑落,有一个可以让您定位手机的应用程序是有意义的。当您不知道手机在哪里时, 这款内部三星应用程序仍然是让您的手机响铃的最佳、最简化的方式。(Samsung)

5.斯特拉瓦
人们购买智能手表的主要原因之一是将其用作健身追踪器(fitness trackers)。因此,正如您所期望的那样,三星(Samsung)的产品具有大量与健身相关的功能。一般来说,它开箱即用,效果很好,但一些特别活跃的人可能会觉得需要更多东西。
这就是Strava的用武之地。它提供比默认的三星(Samsung)软件更全面的健身追踪,并提供详细的统计数据和路线追踪。这使您可以绘制随时间推移的性能改进,使其成为适合认真运动员的出色应用程序。该应用程序的核心功能是免费的,但您可能想了解付费订阅将为您带来的一些好处。
6.手腕电筒
万一您不知道,Galaxy Watches中内置了手电筒功能,或者至少我们手头的Galaxy Active 2中有。您所要做的就是向下滑动快捷菜单并点击手电筒图标。这是一个非常合适的应用程序,但Wrist Flashlight增加了一个新的转折点。字面上地。

7. 这里我们去

8.三星计算器
这是另一个免费的三星(Samsung)应用程序,它非常有用,真的应该在每块手表上开箱即用。顾名思义,这款Galaxy Watch应用程序可让您计算事物。

9. 触发器(IFTTT – 独立(IFTTT – Standalone))(1.99 美元)
如果您使用IFTTT来控制家庭自动化设备或触发网络空间中的事件序列,那么直接从您的智能手表访问这些功能不是很方便吗?Triggers提供了这一点,并且在具有蜂窝功能的智能手表上使用时功能最强大。虽然如果你没有那种类型的手表,它可以通过你的手机工作。
Galaxy Watch商店中有不止一个IFTTT应用程序,但Triggers有一个出色的教程视频和好评。这是一个付费应用程序,但考虑到IFTTT(IFTTT)几乎无限的力量,要价非常合理。
10. 手腕相机(1.99 美元)
如今,我们的智能手机内置了如此强大的摄像头,很难想象还需要更多功能。但是,在某些情况下使用手机摄像头仍然很尴尬。Wrist Camera是广受赞誉的Galaxy Watch应用程序,可让您将智能手表用作智能手机相机的遥控器。
拥有视频和照片的远程触发器开启了各种可能性,它是带手机支架的三脚架的完美伴侣。
11.录音机

The Best Galaxy Watch Apps of 2021
Most smart watches run WаtchOS (for Apple Watches) or Android Wear. Samsung, despite being one of the biggest names in Android smartphones, has chosen to endow their line of watches with Tizen, the same operating system that runs Samsung smart TVs.
This means that, unless a developer decides to port their app, you won’t find every great Android Wear app in the Galaxy Store. However, there’s actually no shortage of amazing and useful applications to download to your Galaxy Watch. Here are some of the best Galaxy Watch apps as of 2021.
1. Facer Companion for Samsung Smartwatches
Samsung has a decent native watch face store with many free and paid choices to adorn your wrist. However, Facer Studio and its community of creators have made some of the best smartwatch faces we’ve ever seen.
The companion app grants access to these faces on Tizen Galaxy devices, although you can also install Facer watch faces as standalone apps as well.
2. Spotify
Everyone’s favorite music streaming app is available on virtually every platform and that includes Tizen watches from Samsung. The main function of the Spotify watch app is to act as a remote for the playback device you’re currently using. In most cases, that means the audio will be streaming from your phone.
If you have a cellular watch with a SIM and have a premium subscription, you can stream music directly without a phone. You can also save music to the watch’s internal storage for offline play, as another premium subscriber feature.
3. Find My Phone
Since your Galaxy Watch is literally attached to your body and your phone isn’t, it makes sense to have an app that lets you locate your phone if you’ve accidentally let it slip down the back of the couch. This in-house Samsung application is still the best, most streamlined way to make your phone ring when you don’t know where it is.
Sadly, the “Locate Phone” service ended on March 15 2021, but we could still make our phone ring while within Bluetooth range, so it’s still very much an essential Galaxy Watch app to have.
4. Samsung SmartThings
If you own a bunch of Samsung smart appliances or any other devices that are compatible with the company’s SmartThings home automation platform, then you definitely want to have the SmartThings app on your Galaxy Watch.
You can add your favorite selection of devices from those that have been set up in the SmartThings Android app on your phone. Once that’s done, it’s easy to control said devices right from your wrist. This is 100% the most Jetsons-like app on Galaxy smart watches!
5. Strava
One of the main reasons people buy smartwatches is to use them as fitness trackers. So as you’d expect Samsung ships their product with plenty of fitness-related functions. In general it works well out of the box, but some particularly active folks may feel the need for something more.
That’s where Strava comes in. It offers more comprehensive fitness tracking than the default Samsung software and crucially offers detailed statistics and route tracking. This lets you plot your performance improvements over time, making it a great app for serious athletes. The core functionality of the app is free, but you may want to check out some of the benefits a paid subscription will bring you.
6. Wrist Flashlight
Just in case you didn’t know, there’s a built-in flashlight function in Galaxy Watches, or at least there is in the Galaxy Active 2 we have at hand. All you have to do is swipe down for the shortcut menu and tap the flashlight icon. It’s a perfectly adequate application, but Wrist Flashlight adds a new twist. Literally.
Apart from offering a choice of different colors, you can also adjust the brightness by turning the physical bezel on Galaxy watches that have them. If you’re using a Galaxy Active mode, you can tap on-screen buttons.
7. Here WeGo
Most smartwatches these days have GPS units in them, but strangely there aren’t many great navigation apps for them. Here WeGo lets you download maps of your region to the smartphone, so you’ll never be lost, even if you don’t have your phone with you or an internet connection.
8. Samsung Calculator
This is another free Samsung app that’s so useful it really should be on every watch out of the box. Just as the name suggests, this Galaxy Watch app lets you calculate things.
Very useful if you’re in no shape to calculate a tip or quickly need to double check your mental calculations without pulling out your phone. While using a small watch screen to tap out numbers and functions isn’t ideal, this app makes it as easy as possible.
9. Triggers (IFTTT – Standalone) ($1.99)
If you use IFTTT to control home automation devices or trigger sequences of events in cyberspace, then wouldn’t it be convenient to have access to those functions directly from your smartwatch? Triggers offers just that and it’s most powerful when used on a smartwatch with cellular capability. Although it will work via your phone if you don’t have that type of watch.
There’s more than one IFTTT app on the Galaxy Watch store, but Triggers has an excellent tutorial video and great reviews. It is a paid app, but the asking price is very reasonable considering the virtually limitless power of IFTTT.
10. Wrist Camera ($1.99)
Our smartphones have such powerful cameras built in these days that it’s hard to imagine needing anything more. However, it can still be awkward to use a phone camera in some instances. Wrist Camera is a widely-celebrated Galaxy Watch app that lets you use your smartwatch as a remote control for your smartphone camera.
Having a remote trigger for both video and photographs opens up all sorts of possibilities and it’s the perfect companion for a tripod with a phone mount.
11. Voice Recorder
This is the last Samsung-made application on the list, but it’s not less useful or essential than the ones we’ve already mentioned. Voice Recorder does exactly what the name suggests. Simply open the app and start recording voice memos.
It’s easy to find the recordings on your Android device later and it even supports speech-to-text functionality, so you don’t need to painstakingly transcribe things later.
12. Yandex Translate
While we don’t yet have the universal translator from Star Trek, modern live translation software is already way better than carrying around a phrasebook.
Yandex Translate supports 85 languages at the time of writing and if you have a watch with an independent internet connection, you don’t even need a phone to use it. Now it should be much easier to find directions to the nearest restaurant or pharmacy. Probably in that order if your stomach doesn’t agree with the local cuisine,
There Really Is a Galaxy Watch App for That
If ever there was a concern that Tizen lacks the diversity and quality of applications found on other platforms, we can safely put it to rest. Which are your favorite smartwatch apps? Tell us which watch apps you simply can’t live without in the comments.
