• Galaxy Watch owners have been experiencing issues when attempting to use their wearable with a device running any version of the Android 16 QPR1 beta.


• Reports say the issue results in connection drops, compatibility problems, and crashes.


• The recently released Android 16 QPR1 Beta 3 update appears to fix the bug.

As with beta, there’s always the threat of running into a bug. That’s exactly what happened recently to some Android 16 beta testers who own a Samsung smartwatch. Thankfully, a recent update seems to have fixed the issue.

There have been a growing number of reports of Samsung’s smartwatches not playing well with devices running on any version of the Android 16 QPR1 beta. Specifically, the bug would cause problems like connection drops, crashes, and compatibility issues. The problem is said to be related to the connected phone trying to download Samsung’s Watch Manager plugin and failing. At the time, the only fix was to go back to a stable version of Android 16.
