Bought yourself a spanking new Galaxy Gear? Then you’ll want to update to the latest edition of the Gear Manager application as it brings with it a very major improvement. You can now enable practically all notifications from your phone to be displayed on your wrist. This has been a major issue for early adopters and it is good to see that Samsung has fixed this with the update.
The latest update to the Gear Manager app lets you select apps for which you want to push updates and can also include previews for email, Hangouts messages. While this goes a long way in improving the utility of Samsung’s smart watch, we feel that there’s a lot more that needs to be fixed before it goes mainstream. The single day battery life and high cost are both very real deterrents in adoption of the Galaxy Gear but fast updates by Samsung should definitely help. The Galaxy Gear smartwatch retails for Rs. 22,990 in India and is compatible with Samsung devices like the Note 3, Galaxy S4, S3, Note 2 as well as the S4 Active, Galaxy S4 mini, Mega 6.3, Mega 5.8, and S4 Zoom.
