Generally, I've not found much help in these forums, but will try again.  I just had something totally weird happen on my Galaxy 3 watch.  I was watching TV, and my arm was across the back of the chair, not bent against any buttons on the watch, just relaxed.  All of a sudden, it "tapped" my wrist, and when I looked, I saw a blue Line, or "Arc" going across the bottom of the screen from about 5 O'Clock, to about 7 O'Clock.  It was pulsating, like it was listening to the TV, but when I checked the voice recorder on the watch, it didn't look anything like that.  Anyone ever seen this?  Anyone have any idea what it is?

Thanks in advance.

Your description sounds like Bixby ready for a command. (It is the new Bixby user interface.) I have switched off "Voice wake up" in the Bixby app. Instead I activate Bixby with the short cut. (Don't know if it's the same on GW3 but on my GW is double press on Home/On button.)

Hmm That sort of makes sense.  I've never played with Bixby before today, when I went through and set it up.  I've had Apple products before, and used Siri a bit, but not much.  It could have been something with bixby, maybe he/she/it heard something on TV and decided that it wished to dialog. 

THanks, makes sense.

BINGO! Just fired up Bixby and there was my "Arc". Thanks
