Feel dumb but I can't find a definitive answer so, Once the beta is over and the final version is released, do I need to do anything to my watch in order to continue to receive updates moving forward or are the plug ins reset automatically?
Same as previous beta tests I expect that when beta is over Samsung pushes the "release" version of the watch plugin on phone and watch software as another update that resets it back from beta to the latest release version. And from there you will receive updates as they are released.
I get the impression from the sign up info that the transition to the final (non-beta) release will be transparent and is likely that it may be baked into the last beta installment. I really do not think that Samsung wants to sustain any "black eyes" as a result of an overly complex process to end the beta, particularly with all the bad blood over the number of GW4s that were "bricked" last fall as part of an update package. Some people are stressed enough over troubles with beta installs that went awry. I think Samsung will do every thing in its power to avoid POing the very people who are helping them by testing their beta software.
