FEATURES REQUESTS for Galaxy watch 4 and 5

[mageor]

Some features I would like to see in my Galaxy Watch 5....same goes for Watch 4 too:

1.  One tap exercise start... I usually have location off on my phone settings and when i start a walk exercise i have to tap 2 times and swipe back...There could be one setting per exercise (location off/on) so that i do not have to enable gps every time i start to exercise....

2. Follow up to the previous one is the function to automatically disable the location after i finish my exercise....I have to remember and manually switch it off every time. The solution to always have location on in my watch is unacceptable with such poor battery life...

3. Implement the 85% limit to charging in order to protect the battery (like the phones).

4. Scheduled shutdown and restart.

I would like to add to that ... remember my preferred exercise so that I don't have to choose it all the time

I agree! Or at the very least put the most used exercises at the beginning of that long list.

I love these feature requests. Hopefully these are noticed. Samsung likely won't respond as seen in the past.

I'd like to request the ability to change the Snooze interval on calendar notifications and / or alarms to 0 (or to remove the snooze option). On the Watch4 because of how you swipe up to cancel or snooze, it's too easy to hit the snooze by mistake. Or make it more like the Watch2, where you swipe right for one and left for the other. Up or down would be OK also.

It would be nice if the buttons were fully customizable. They shouldn't be limited on what you can set them to do.

Having the option to... 

• Create folders for apps 

• Have more than 15 tiles/widgets

• Type instead of speak to both Google Assistant and Bixby

• More features/options in Modes and Routines for Samsung Galaxy Watch 5

One of the biggest reasons I have a Galaxy Watch 4 is to listen to tunes and track my runs. My prep for leaving the house includes:

- turning off WiFi

- turning on location

- disabling mobile networks (LTE)

- opening my tunes app

- starting a run in the health app

And when I return I flip the top 3.

This seems like a great scenario for a Routine. But I don't see any option in Routines to change connections or location settings. Is this possible?

You're trying to create a Routines on your phone, right? Because I don't see Modes and Routines for Galaxy watch.

If it's on your phone, then yes you can change connections and location settings. This is an example.
