Does anyone know of an app or any development to bring google now to the Gear S?
1. I want to be able to add reminders from the watch with my voice and them be in google reminders, not that crappy Samsung reminders.
2. add items to lists with my voice. Google now does this with Keep
3. being able to check things off of my lists from my watch would be nice too, although I think this would require a Keep companion in addition to the Google now companion
The only way I can figure to get the first 2 in one go, would be to have google now voice functionality on the watch. If anyone has some other ways or ideas how to accomplish these things, please let me know
OK here is what I have found so far:
1. I know I can receive notifications from google now on my Gear S. They are clunky at best, and it is not what I want
2. I know there is an ALPHA of android wear I can TRY to put on the Gear S. Not worth the trouble and I wouldn't get the standalone functionality of the watch.

I am looking for a app that can do a few things. I want to make a to-do list, and / or a grocery list. It needs to be able to install and sync between more than one android and a pc.
I want to be able to goto the grocery with my lady and both have the app open. When we find a item either of us checks it off, it syncs with the app on the other phone and is marked completed. Also I want to be able to make the list from my pc at home. Basically ourgroceries does all this except for the home pc part.
Anyone know a app that will fit the bill?

Short answer Evernote has this feature but it is not obvious. Other apps also mentioned for those interested.

Best app ever for retail!
I work in retail (Best Buy) and I use this app all the time to write down quick notes or customer requests.
Suggestions?
Only one, different color skins for notes/interface. Great app otherwise!
I love the idea, but it won't sync with my phone. I created a list on the phone and deleted the example notes. The phone app shows the example notes and not my list.
Suggestion : Add the past (Copy/Paste) from todo list "GTask" (google task) and/or from "Out Of The Milk"
Whether an application for Gear S offline without a smartphone? Is it possible without smartphone Gear S create notes and reminders to get?
Question..why dose the app need so many permissions? Like accounts. Gps. Alarm. Apps. Sd card ?!!!! Its a note app! ?[emoji52]
Question/Suggestion
First I want to say this is a great program so thank you for making it.
I have one suggestion or question. Is it possible to be able to re-arraign the tasks within a note. It would be nice that when i open the program I immediately see, from the snapshot, important tasks first. Basically be able to add a line to the first line.
Thanks

It is a note app which is connected with Gear watch and syncs notes with Dropbox and with Gear watch.
Also you have the choice to attach pictures and to add time or location based alarms for each note.
Thank you for the question.

Very nice suggestion. I wil try to add the choice to rearrange tasks inside a note.
What about the option for completed tasks to move to the end of the list?
That would be a nice addition, but I just delete the task once completed so all I see is what needs to be done. That's why it would be nice that when i open my notes that I see the top five shown to be my priority. thanks
I really love your app!
This is an example of an app full of features. I think the developer smartGear is doing right by asking feedback. It's a nice way to improve the app and detect possible errors.

Totally Agree.
Sync with watch
I can get notes in gear app to sync with watch. Gears S3.
The app gives me "no gear device has been connected" message. I checked the obvious Bluetooth connection etc. Any suggestions on how to solve this?
I needed a way to get reminders based on location. For example to pick up a online order from a B&M next time I was near the store. So I did some research and settled on Google Keep ( not a lot of choices from what I could tell). It works but the problem is when I come up on the location. I'll get multiple notifications on my Gear Fit. Sometimes up to five. I don't see anything my my S5 (running latest code) that indication multiple notifications, just on the Fit. Any ideas?
Hello!
I bought a Stratos watch, so far I'm impressed.
I like it but I do not know yet what else I can do with it and I have the following questions:
How do I use Sleep as Android tracker?
How do I set up Tools & Amazfit?
In some Apps or Widgets, I saw Chinese text, is my ROM Chinese or International
Can I sync it with my Calendar and To-Do lists?
Is there any PDF Reader or Note Reader for the watch?
Any method with Maps and Directions on the Watch?
What else can I do?
I can answer some of the questions.
3. I have a pace with the international version and everything is in my language, no chinese at all, so maybe you have the chinese ROM.
4. You can install some apps on the watch to sync your calendar. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/app-widget-calendar-pace-t3751889 or only the timeline https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/app-widget-timeline-v1-0-1-pace-stratos-t3894632) (I believe that I saw and app for the to-do, but I'm not sure...)
6. For the maps directions I use this (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.re.amazfitmaps)
In this forum, you can find some other interesting apps for your watch. We have amazings developers and a lot of options for ours watches!!!
Is there a hack from the wear os 2.0 side to make the watch be compatible with an iphone? There was a tweak for the jailbroken iphone back in 2015 but it was for Android wear. Is there some new way for Wear OS 2.0?
Is there an app for the watch maybe?
Maybe I am not understanding the problem, you mean to connect an iPhone with the Wear OS watch? That is done with the official app, right?
Wear OS by Google
The Wear OS by Google app, previously Android Wear, syncs your smartwatch and phone so you can get more out of your watch. Get help from your Google Assistant, see important messages, track health and fitness, and more, all from your wrist: • GET HELP FROM YOUR GOOGLE ASSISTANT: Check the...
apps.apple.com
If not, what do you mean by making it compatible?
Edit: I think I understood, you mean that with jailbreak it does not allow you to connect it, right? ; Jailbreak is the same as root in android.

What I mean by full compatibility is the ability to respond to messages, emails, whatsapp, receive google maps directions on the watch and things of the kind. It looks like if you have an iphone, you are more restricted on the things you can do. Jailbreak on the iphone is the same as root on the Android phone.
Ok, Does iPhone WITHOUT jailbreak have that ability to respond to messages, emails, whatsapp, receive google maps directions on the watch and things of the kind?

No, with a simple iphone you cannot respond to messages, emails, WhatsApp nor receive google maps directions on the watch. I was redundant by asking if on a jailbroken iphone that is possible, expecting that there could be a way using some tweak on the iphone but on this forum, I should be asking for a hack/apk on the watch to improve/open the communication with the iphone.
