Galaxy WatchI have read all instructions & have entered emergency contact information however, the instructions tell me to "Press the Home button 5 times to call an emergency number". This does not work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong or maybe there is something wrong elsewhere but I'd like to solve the problem. TIA

Galaxy WatchThank you for following up. I can certainly understand your concerns with the Emergency SOS feature not working, and I would be happy to look into this further for you. I would recommend making sure the software is up-to-date on your phone and watch. This will keep any fixes through the updates available on your device.
You can use the following link to ensure the watch and phone are set up for the best experience using the feature. https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00078032/
If the software is up-to-date, the next step would be to reset your watch. This will allow you to have a fresh software to start with. Please make sure that your watch has a back-up prior to resetting. However, we want to test the watch prior to restoring it to make sure there was not something in the restored software cause this symptom.

Galaxy WatchThank you for following up. Are you pressing the button five times fast or just like a slow clicking pattern?
