Galaxy Watch Studio and Mac Big Sur Update

I have no update to report.

  1. Any Workaround for MacBook Pro with M1 chipset? GWS 2.0.0 shows only white screen.
  2. Do I need to install JRE separately for macOS? as I didnā€™t found any java version in MacBook Pro

There is currently no solution / update for GWS and Macos Big Sur!

please give me the GWSā€™s update plan

If you are running Catalina or older then yes you need to install Java JRE See the compatibility and how to download from THIS PAGE

If you have macOS Big Sur it is not compatible with GWS.

I know this goes in circle and thereā€™s only so much information you can pass on however what are the other channels to air grievances? Legitimate grievances? As someone else pointed out earlier, this watch has been out for half a year and while Samsung canā€™t predict other companyā€™s directions with upgrades, there needs to be more communication to the community that supports the watch.

I understand the frustration. I report this to management and it is being heard.

Iā€™m almost afraid to post this but the latest update is before the end of March. I hope I donā€™t jinx it by posting.

If that was so it would be great. Iā€™m already waiting for it

why wait so long for a bug solution? you can just roll back to Catalina and GWS will work fine.
Sorry for my bad english.

Yes, but thatā€™s not the solution to the problem!

Hello Ron,

Could i please ask if the new version that the team prepares only fixes the problem with Big Sur or does it add also new features?

Thanks!

The release notes I saw had a whole list of bug fixes besides the macOS Big Sur fix. But there are no new features .
