Galaxy Watch 4 touch bezel fix lands in time for new slideshow app

For some time, Samsung’s smartwatches have been defined by unique physical control that some considered more useful than the digital crown of the Apple Watch. Recently, however, the rotating bezel Signature Watch Galaxy relegated to the background, appearing only in some “Classic” models. For most models, Samsung has chosen to use a “virtual” touch bezel that rested on the touch areas around the edge of the screen. Unfortunately, the implementation Watch Galaxy 4 was apparently buggy, but, fortunately, Samsung comes a solution in time for the arrival of a new application that could use this function.

The rotating bezel has always been a brand of sports watches, but it Samsung converted into real control that is often linked to a scroll action on the user interface. When it removes this physical mechanism from the Galaxy Active Watch 2, it was necessary to replace it with a touch replacement solution. The non-classic Galaxy 4 shows inherited from this trait, but users reported to have a bug showstopping.

Some Galaxy Look at the 4 owners experienced scrolling problems with the virtual telescope, which is a critical defect given the main use of this function. A new firmware update, fortunately, addresses and that the promises of improved stability as well. That who really corrects the remains of bugs to see.

The moment of correction of a bug, however, is almost too perfect. Samsung has just launched a new app for its Galaxy See 4 on the Os-Wear base, but it is actually an old application if we consider its smartwatches more. The Samsung PPT Controller does exactly what its name suggests, allowing you to control slideshows on your computer from your Galaxy Watch. While you can certainly use the touch screen buttons to go back through the slideshow, it is much more convenient to slide your finger on the tactile bezel or turn this glasses if you have the Galaxy 4 classic watch.

This PPT controller is just the last new Samsung application to arrive at the Galaxy 4 watch and, therefore, on wear OS. However, this one has been around Smartwatches based Tizen, and has just been left in the passage to wear. It is unclear, however, if this application is an exclusivity of the series Galaxy 4 shows or if it can be installed on a wear bone device.
