The Galaxy Wearable Manager was designed to unify Samsung’s ecosystem of wearables—smartwatches, fitness bands, and earbuds—under one intuitive interface. Moving the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro out of the Wear Manager and into Bluetooth settings alone undermines that purpose.

Previously, we could access the Buds through both Bluetooth and the Wearable app, as well as via the widget. This redundancy was not inefficient—it was convenient. Now, connecting the Buds 3 Pro requires an extra step, and the experience feels fragmented rather than streamlined.

Having all wearables under one roof made management more efficient and consistent. If Samsung intends to shift functionality away from the Wear Manager, it should clearly outline the benefits of doing so. As a user, I do not see any advantage to this change—only added friction.

Please reconsider reintegrating the Buds 3 Pro into the Wear Manager, or at minimum, provide clarity on the rationale behind this move.

Thank you.

Totally agree with you. Not a fan of moving buds control to Bluetooth settings. At least their is still a widget

The widget is the only saving grace ...

Otherwise, in order to get to the buds controls via Bluetooth, you have to either long press the Bluetooth in quick settings or go to settings, connections, Bluetooth, find buds 3 pros or whatever you may have renamed the device, tap on settings for the device, where there are a couple of basic settings, and then tap on "setup your ear buds..." which actually does nothing at the moment.

Before, we could manage all the settings in the Wear app along with our other devices.

Not to mention, when accessing the buds from the lock screen now bar, we have a non-selectable paragraph explaining where the buds controls got off to.

Super convenient, said no one! 1755565157371.jpg1755565512130.jpg
