Encountering the ”can’t Use This App Using Voice Assistant” msg on the Galaxy Watch, how to get around it, and some app examples

This is one thing that I can’t understand on the Galaxy Watch with Samsung deciding which apps will work and which apps will not work with Voice Assistant.

As you’ll see, two examples where Samsung actually gets it wrong (their own Timer app which actually is accessible), and the Spotify app, whilst some of the buttons are not accessible, the app itself is still usable.

The trick to get around the blocking msg that stops you from using an app is to use Bixby which I do in the demo.

Yes, there are completely inaccessible apps, but let’s let the user decide smile.

However, one good thing about this demo, yes you can play music out of the Galaxy Watch’s internal speaker!!!
