Since Samsung has been using Wear OS on Galaxy Watch 4, it has brought more Tizen apps to Wear OS. Now it’s the browser’s turn. It’s coming to Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic.
Samsung Internet
The browser is called Samsung Internet and comes to the smartwatch in a slimmed-down version. Unfortunately, this comes with a major disadvantage, because the browser opens the desktop version of many websites. That is not ideal on a smartphone, but not at all on an even smaller smartwatch screen.
This makes it all so small that it is difficult to browse and select items properly. Samsung has come up with something, namely the use of gestures. You can swipe from the side of the screen and you will see the corners of a website.
Galaxy Watch 4
If you want to see the text a bit bigger, it is also possible to switch on the zoom. This allows you to make the texts on sites a bit larger. Furthermore, it works a bit like the browser on your television: you don’t spend hours surfing the internet on it, but if you want to quickly google something, you can do that quickly in this somewhat clumsy way. For the rest, you will mainly use your smartphone for this.
Wanna try? Then download the Samsung Internet app from the Play Store app on your watch. It is also possible to open the Samsung Internet Play Store on your smartphone and tap the arrow next to ‘Available on more devices’. There is also a download button with which you can put the app directly on your Galaxy Watch 4.
Web browser
Samsung Internet is a popular app on smartphones, partly thanks to the good privacy options and the built-in ad blocker, which many people like to use. The app is also nice to use on a smartphone in terms of appearance and navigation. So on the watch it is less.
