Which free compass app would you recommend?
I have very good experience with the apps from appfour. As single apps or bundle.

Lefty - WearOS on the right wrist
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mutau.lefty
I use it on my Skagen Falster 3 on the right wrist to have the buttons on the side showing to the hand/fingers and the speaker in the direction to the elbow.
Lefty flips the OS. Not only the display is rotated by 180 degrees.
Just to show the option, may be useful for someone.

Podcasts offline on the S7

A perfect app for your training without smartphone. Podcasts to listen offline with the S7.
The podcasts are identical with the listed ones in the Google Podcasts app available for Android smartphones.

Swift by Thema is a good watch face that I have used on other Wear OS watches in the past, lots of customization etc

Sunrise and sunset alarm on the S7
To have an alarm a certain time before sunrise or sunset you can use your Google Calendar and custom notifications, which are shown on your smartphone and your S7 at the choosen time as popup and which are shown on your S7 in the calendar tile (swiping the home screen to the left side).
Go to the following website: https://www.webcal.fi/en-US/index.php
Choose on the left side: Manual subscription
Choose on the main screen: Sun
Select your preferred location, rename it, open settings, choose the information you want to have, open Show URL and confirm Add Sun to Google Calendar
Open Google Calendar and edit the settings of the new web calendar http://webcal.fi⊠you can choose the color, the notification and sync interval.
Enjoy your notifications or the information on the S7 calendar tile, if you donât have the smartphone with you.
Here a screenshot of the S7 calendar tile.

For other calendar apps you can use
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bitfire.icsdroid&hl=de
to import the sunrise and sunset calendar.
The same procedure, but you use the URL shown for the Sun calendar to import it with ICSx5.

@pilleus Are apps to install without phone app?
Maybe is useful to indicate that for the iOS users so they can install the app without any restriction.
For sleep tracking I didnât find an app for that. I.e

Google Calendar is the phone app. If you want to use other calendar apps insert the posted URL and use it as web calendar. I donât know how it works in the Apple universe, but notifications from the calendar on the phone should be possible too!? đ§

@Bulkan This is the only sleep tracking app that works independently for an iOS user but it has an Android companion app so you cannot export the data, which makes it a bit useless. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fridgecow.smartalarm&hl=en_US

I remember the app Zenfit on the Asus Zenwatch 3, which could track sleep (very basic, but it was okay). If there is an app for IOS from Asus this would be an option. But I canât check it. đ§
For Android there is an app, but I didnât test it until now:

Thanks @Brad_Olwin. Damn it the companion app. The ideal would be an independent app connected to a service in the web and that connected to iOS device.
Too way complicated.

OFF TOPIC: The picture is yours? Do you have your S9s in Spanish?

Kudos for @Joaquin

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Good stuff!
Solves OHR issues with S9 own sensor, removes a need for a spare band/strap, provides music/podcasts on the run, ensures Google Fit correctly credits you move minutes/healthpoints (synced S9 activity alone wonât do!), and qualifies you for @Brad_Olwin Borg Club. Whatâs not to like?

Since yesterday I have been looking for a way to track sleep on our watch. And unfortunately I find that almost all Wear Os watches like Fosill, Xiaomi have native sleep tracking support the only exception is Suunto 7. I thought maybe I could install through ADB with the Mi Fit or Fosill applications but I canât find such a solution. It has anyone any idea?

Fosill
Which WearOS watch from Fossil has a native sleep tracking?
You can use Sleep as Android on your S7.

@pilleus Fossil Hybrid app dedicated to the Fossil watch has sleep tracking. Xiaomi Mi Watch, the Mi Fit app supports sleep tracking. These applications can be synchronized with Google Fit.
