The new software will offer a few changes, including serious health suite features.<\/p>\n<p>One UI 8 is Samsung\u2019s version of Wear OS 6, and it\u2019s been a long time coming for the Galaxy Watch. The current version of Wear OS for the Galaxy Watch is iteration 5, though it falls under the moniker of One UI 6. The Galaxy Watch series didn\u2019t miss out on any changes; it just skips a software generation in name only to One UI 8.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/06\/16\/samsung-galaxy-watch-one-ui-8-beta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">update will add a couple of major features<\/a> to Samsung\u2019s health tracking suite. That includes a new <strong>Bedtime Guidance<\/strong> mode that will help you tune your sleep further with actions you can take. A new <strong>Vascular Load<\/strong> tool will measure stress on your system during sleep. We\u2019ll also see a <strong>Running Coach<\/strong> and <strong>Antioxidant Index<\/strong> in the new update.<\/p>\n<p>How to install One UI 8 beta for Galaxy Watch<\/p>\n<p>The first thing to note is which devices will be able to access the One UI 8 Watch beta update. So far, Samsung has noted that these devices will be eligible:<\/p>\n<p>\tAdvertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Galaxy Watch 7<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy Watch Ultra<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy Watch FE<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy Watch 6<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy Watch 6 Classic<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy Watch 5<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy Watch 5 Pro<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At the time of writing, only the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch 7 can install the beta. Later models will soon follow.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung also explicitly mentions users in the US and Korea, with no allusion to Europe or other regions. This might be temporary while the update rolls out, so we\u2019ll have to wait and see how far the beta reaches. Samsung also doesn\u2019t note which devices will get beta access first, so there may be some delay for users with older devices.<\/p>\n<p>To download the One UI 8 Watch beta, you\u2019ll need to have your Galaxy Watch connected to a Samsung device. From there, you\u2019ll need to complete the process in the Samsung Members app.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the Samsung Members app.<\/li>\n<li>Enter the <strong>Beta Program section<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Tap <strong>One UI 8 Watch 7 \/ Ultra Beta<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Hit <strong>Join<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" height=\"1024\" width=\"473\" data-id=\"678792\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Galaxy-Watch-Wear-OS-6-beta-how-to-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-678792\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" height=\"1024\" width=\"473\" data-id=\"678790\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Galaxy-Watch-Wear-OS-6-beta-how-to-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-678790\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" height=\"1024\" width=\"473\" data-id=\"678791\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Galaxy-Watch-Wear-OS-6-beta-how-to-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-678791\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>The request will process and you should be able to find and install the One UI 8 Watch beta as your next update.<\/p>\n<p>From there, your watch should do the rest!
