Samsung unveiled new details about its upcoming wearables platform built jointly with Google at its Mobile World Congress now. The arrangement will allow developers to make a single app compatible with Google Wear OS and Samsung’s Tizen OS. The deal could further extend the current partnership between the tech giants that integrated Google Nest and Samsung SmartThings.
Watch Sharing
The shared platform proposed by Google and Samsung will debut later come july 1st. Samsung’s brand new one UI Watch platform also showcased in the Mobile World Congress, will be the first to run the joint apps. The shared platform offers benefits towards the wearables, according to Samsung and Google. Wearers may have access to much more apps both from Google and third-party developers, downloadable in the Google Play Store to the Galaxy smartwatch. The upgrades towards the platform can make the battery keep going longer and perform operations faster, too, the businesses claim.
“Samsung and Google have a long good reputation for collaboration and whenever we've worked together, the experience for the consumers has been dramatically better for everyone, Android os and Wear v . p . of product management Sameer Samat said inside a statement. “That certainly is true with this new, unified platform, which will be rolling out the very first time on Samsung's new Galaxy Watch.”
Google Samsung Sharing
Samsung is keen on deepening connections among its very own devices too. The One UI Watch platform also serves to deepen the bond between Galaxy smartwatches and Galaxy smartphones, opening the timepiece to more apps and a similar type of interaction. For example, any app installed on the smartphone that's watch-compatible may also be downloaded to the smartwatch, and any calls or messages blocked around the watch will be blocked on the phone as well. Even customized clocks on the telephone showing different timezones will now appear on the timepiece simultaneously.
Google Nest's integration with Samsung SmartThings was announced last year however , became popular in January when SmartThings introduced a Google Nest app because of its platform, giving extensive but incomplete control over Nest devices to SmartThings users. The app lets users add Nest devices to the SmartThings controls. Android Auto added its own SmartThings app this spring, too, providing charge of SmartThings devices via Google Assistant from a vehicle and charge of the vehicle through SmartThings. Nest can integrate devices certified within the Works together with SmartThings (WWST) program. The certification also streamlines, ensuring the apps meet the tightened safety and quality standards Google introduced for voice-enabled apps in March.
