Samsung is close to releasing the stable One UI 6.0 Watch update to its older Wear OS-based Galaxy Watches. The company has released the fourth One UI 6.0 Watch beta update to the Galaxy Watch 4, Galaxy Watch 5, and Galaxy Watch 6.

One UI 6.0 Watch Beta 4 update now available for Galaxy Watch 4, 5, and 6

The fourth One UI 6.0 Watch beta update is now available for the Galaxy Watch 4, Galaxy Watch 5, and Galaxy Watch 6. These updates are available in the US, but they may also be available in South Korea and the UK. The firmware version of the update for the Galaxy Watch 4 and the Galaxy Watch 5 ends with ZXG7, while the firmware version of the update for the Galaxy Watch 6 ends with ZXG6.

To install this update on your Galaxy Watch, open the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone, select your smartwatch, and then navigate to Watch Settings » Watch Software update » Download and install.

According to the company's official changelog, the fourth One UI 6.0 Watch beta update brings several bug fixes and performance improvements. The update brings improved system stability and performance, lower battery power consumption, in-app performance, and network interoperability. The new software also supports global always-on display (AoD) mode.

The South Korean firm said there are a few issues that it hasn't been able to solve. The Show Last App setting (Note Used or Within 5 Seconds) in the watch doesn't work properly. A quick fix for this bug is to select one of those options again. You can do that by navigating to Settings » Display » Show Last App and then select one of three options: Within 20 Seconds, Within 2 Minutes, and Within 1 Hour.

The company could fix it with the next beta update release.

Samsung has released four One UI 6.0 Watch beta updates, and it could release at least one more beta update before rolling out the stable One UI 6.0 Watch update to the Galaxy Watch 4, Galaxy Watch 5, and Galaxy Watch 6. Expect the update to be available within the next month or so.
