I called Samsung today and told them what happened. I asked if they can at least give me the promo price for the Watch 6 Classic that was offered when I bought the S24. They are going to email me if that is possible.

I agree. I have 2 watches that won't work. I don't want to have another line for the watch. This is lame.

Same......was super bummed. I also agree. The statement definitely says AFTER 2024! I had to re-pair it to my old phone (S21 Ultra) again just to get it to work.

It can connect! When you transfered your files to the new phone, only a shell of the Gear S app transfered. Open your Play Store, search for Gear S plug in, and your phone will come back with that is on the device. I chose the Gear S (I had like, 6 to chose from) and it updated. Then I tried to pair my watch and it worked. But I did get that warning after pairing about it not working with any newer phones after 2024.1707222650779.jpg1707222650794.jpg1707222650811.jpg

I tried that 5 times and it still doesn't work.  And now the Plugin app is not even available for me to download.

There needs to be some way to fix this.  The watch and phone do pair but the misleading message pops up and the watch drops off.
