Please help I am so frustrated. I got my replacement galaxy watch 5 and when setting it up there is no way to install the samsung internet browser! I have it on my watch 4 and the watch 5 I exchanged but I couldn't get it on the new one. I deleted it off my watch 4 to see if i could put it back on and same thing it's not there! With? Anyone know whats going on?
Edit: a few people said to look in the store. I did and it's not there that's the issue. I know it should be there but it isn't. I thought it was my watch 5 that was the issue so I deleted it off my watch 4 that I had it on and there was once again just like my watch 5 not listed anymore in the store to download

I uninstalled/reinstalled the Wear app and it forced an update.  Now Samsung Internet is present and in the Play Store.

@LenaCheney Try this:

  1. Open the Galaxy Wearable app
  2. Ensure that your GW5 is selected
  3. Scroll to the bottom and click on Store
  4. Click in the search bar and search for "internet"
  5. Click on Samsung Internet Browser
  6. Click on Install

Ya i don't understand it because on my previous watch 5 and watch 4 it would say apps on your phone and list samsung internet to download and now it isn't there and i can't find it either. Like I said I deleted it off my watch 4 (it was installed on there) and I can't get it back. It makes no sense

Samsung Internet came installed on my new Watch 5 pro. 

Try clearing the data cache on the Wear App and then Force Stop it, and reopen it.  I'd reboot the watch as well.

If you end up having to reset your watch for any reason can you let me know if it's installed still after the reboot?
