I just checked the camera update and it is newer 12.0.1.64. Dated Feb 2022. Not the one released May 7 2022. Lol. Still not up to date.

But when will it come out? The US seems to get them 3 months later.

That is good and I would expect that. But users of older watches shouldn't be forced to upgrade their watch for a simple feature.

Exactly, Samsung should be responding here and whenever I see responses from their so-called moderators or official ambassadors they never have any official word it's just like well stay tuned it's coming soon. It's like you asked them when an updates coming because it's been way too long and it's been pushed out for like other carriers except for one and you're like when is it coming and they're like oh we have no timeline and then it shows up the next day like really you didn't know it was going to come out tomorrow I would assume that almost everybody has a timeline of when an update comes out and the status of it and someone in these forums who works for Samsung would be able to at least say hey it's scheduled to come out this month or this week maybe not the exact day I get that cuz something could cause a delay real quick last minute but to not know at all I highly doubt that no one is in the loop.

I've seen other "smart" watches get BP approval already here in the US and I know technically you can use the BP Lab app but they have been saying the BP feature, which clearly the watch can do, will come to the Active 2 and newer watches soon and that's been like 3 plus years and some of these other smart watches that got approval were released way after these watches and got approval within like a year. I mean if it works and it's accurate within a specific range which I'm sure that's what they are looking for and it shouldn't be the hard to get approval. They showed it worked in South Korea and I'm sure they've got pretty strict regulations there too especially coming to the accuracy of the measurements. I think Samsung just hasn't followed through and stop pushing for it which is kind of false advertisement because these watches should have been updated by now to have blood pressure monitoring with the native Samsung health app like they promised. Considering how many medications get approved quickly that don't have 100% accuracy or proven track record shouldn't be that hard to get a watch approved. Plus worst case they can always say that even though we approve it and it's fairly accurate it's still better to go see your doctor if your blood pressure is extremely high or low and use the watch as more of a general maintenance of keeping track of your blood pressure and to go see the doctor when it's out of control like any other medical device would be.

Now that Samsung is starting to push Google messages as the default message app even though you can still use the Samsung messages app, why don't they update their watches to use the Google messages as a native app? I have the S21 ultra and I use Google messages for my messaging app because it's so much better than the stock one but when I get a message it shows up on my active to watch which is fine and I can technically respond to the message but if I clear it out and I go back to the message app on my watch it wants to use the Samsung messages app and asks me to make a default in which I say no and it brings up my threads but there are older threads from back when I was using Samsung messages as my default so I can't technically compose a message from my watch. They're going to push or allow Google messages to be the default it should support the older Tizen OS watches also and not be forced to only work on the Wear OS Galaxy watch 4 since you could install Google messages on that watch. But not the watch 3 or older

If you're using Samsung messages it still doesn't support RCS you have to use Android messages or use WhatsApp but for stock messaging you need to use Android Google messages Samsung messages still doesn't support RCs for some reason or at least I haven't got it to update

Yeah I noticed sending video to another Android that has RCS enabled sends high quality videos if both sides have RCS. But if you send a video to say an iphone user then it will be a bad compressed video. Same with received videos from iphone. They are crappy. I know Apple will probably never create iMessage for Android (even though they would make a ton of money), but I think they should be forced to support RCS to help eliminate SMS/MMS, which is basically obsolete tech.

So according to what I read here, Samsung pushed the security updates to the carriers in which T-Mobile has not pushed it out yet, but according to T-Mobile, they said Samsung will push it out directly. I hate this confusion of who is pushing updates. Some updates seem to be the carriers responsibility and then some are the manufacturers...which one is it? To me if you have an unlocked version which is compatible to all carriers and Samsung should be pushing updates out to the unlock carriers for all updates and if that's the case where is the May update. Samsung claims that they're going to be fast and efficient on updates and I've yet to see that yet. I have contacted T-Mobile twice about the update and they act like they haven't even heard of it.

I've tried the smart switch thing and never been able to get a software update. if the S21 has all the updated firmware/software that we are waiting for and that phone works then there is no reason why the s20 should not work either. so they need to push the update ASAP. most update don't even have to do with a carrier connection. it's usually other software that works offline or doesn't affect whether you are connected to data or not

I think this feature may have been changed by Google in the core Android software but they won't listen either and put it back. Apple can do it so why not Android? especially when it use to be that way and they changed a feature that no one asked for. no one said let's delete that feature.

yes we know it moved. it needs to go back to where you can assign it to the contact, not the thread. that way if you're thread gets deleted then when that contact messages you again, then you would still hear the custom notification and know who it is. this is how Apple does it. Android used to do it that way but they removed the feature for some reason which was a very dumb thing to do.

But i would rather you the Samsung messages app as it works better with my active 2 watch. If the stock app isn't going to support it then make google messages the stock app and have the watch have full support for google messages. I can recieve messages on my watch and reply but I cant compose with using the stock Samsung messaging app. This is where it is all wrong.

It is not available on the S20 line using the Samsung Messages app. Only Google's Message app. But an update on a potential release would be nice. You know they know. They just act dumb and say I don't know

The only problem with this is that if you delete the message thread for that person, the custom notification goes away and you have to wait til they text you again, which will ring your default, and then you can setup the custom notification again. Sometimes it's nice to delete the thread to clean up the messages. This feature should be set to the contact like every other phone (Android and Apple) and not to the thread. Please fix/update this. Prior to Android 8.0 it was setup to contacts, so I don't know why Samsung got rid of it? Like they saying goes... If it ain't broke don't fix it. With so many users complaining that it went away, Samsung should have brought this feature back a long time ago .(Samsung... Listen to your customers and fix issues promptly)
