Also Samsung are rolling out One UI 6 to their watches (from watch 4 thru x) I have just upgraded to that yesterday and Gluroo is working fine on it.

Thanks for the info. Currently updating from UI 5 to 6. I’m not sure what UI6 brings to the table on my Galaxy 4 but it looks like a “facelift” on the look of the user interface experience with the device? I turned on the watches WiFi. Seems like a lengthy process. First impressions on completion. The upgrade process itself has dropped my battery from 42% to 8 & put it in power saving mode. Watch is on charge now. G-watch wear app I use for my sensor readings is unaffected. But it remains to be seen if this upgraded UI takes a toll on the watch battery life from fully charged. I’ll check back later.

I did say I’d check back later. I use the “G-watch wear” app to pick up Libre readings on the watch. The update has no conflict with the app & has no effect on the Galaxy watch 4’s battery life from full charge. In short. I don’t see UI6 does much to enhance what is a pretty decent watch for what I use it for. (It does suggest updating whilst the watch is on charge. I’m not surprised, it sucked 32% battery out of the watch when I did it.)
 
Glucowatch works with iPhone but not sure which watch types as I’m using it on my Apple watch
