Around the same time those models hit retail shelves, the company rolled out the stable One UI 8 Watch build for the Galaxy Watch Ultra (2024). Now, as Google begins pushing Wear OS 6 to its 2023 and 2024 Pixel Watches, Samsung is following suit with the stable update for its 2024 Galaxy Watch 7.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung has been running a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/samsung-kicks-off-one-ui-8-watch-beta-galaxy-watch-7-ultra\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">One UI 8 Watch beta program for the Galaxy Watch 7<\/a> since late June. Despite releasing multiple beta builds and no major bugs being reported, the company held off on pushing the stable update to the public.<\/p>\n<p>This could be due to Samsung waiting for Google to push <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/google-wear-os-6-landing-on-pixel-watch-2-and-3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wear OS 6 to its older Pixel Watches<\/a>. With the latter seeding the update last week, the Korean giant has now commenced the stable One UI 8 Watch rollout for its 2024 smartwatch.<\/p>\n<p>For now, the BYI4 firmware is only live in Korea, but it should expand to more countries and regions later this week (via <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/tarunvats33\/status\/1977610925118304346\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">@tarunvats33<\/a>). In addition to Wear OS 6 and One UI 8 Watch, the almost 2GB firmware contains the September 2025 security patch. Galaxy Watch 7 users on the One UI 8 Watch beta program will get a considerably smaller 160MB build.<\/p>\n<p>If you own the Galaxy Watch 7, check for the Wear OS 6 update using the companion Wearable app on your phone by going to <strong>Watch settings &gt; Watch software update &gt; Download and install<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>                        One UI 8 Watch will make the Galaxy Watch 7 even better<\/p>\n<p>One UI 8 Watch brings <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/new-health-features-coming-with-one-ui-8-watch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">several new health features<\/a> to Samsung&#8217;s 2024 smartwatch.
