Galaxy Watches get Gmail support, and one more Google app is on the way
Google is continuously working towards making the interconnectivity of the devices more smooth. To do so, the company has introduced its optimized Android OS for different devices, including smartwatches, TVs, and more.

Now there are seven new apps that are coming soon for the devices.
New Google applications are coming
Google offers a wide range of applications that are commonly used by users in daily life, such as Gmail, Google, and Calendar. Earlier, these applications were limited to smartphones, but now smartwatches are also getting them. Let’s know about their uses.
Now users will easily manage their inbox; it will allow them to read emails directly from the watch and use other options like reply, star, mark as unread, delete, or archive without the need for a phone. Previously, users were only able to see the notification of the app on the Galaxy Watch, but now they will get access to full application features as the official app is now available. You can easily download the application from the Play Store on your Galaxy Watch.
Meanwhile, Google may take some time to introduce the Google Calendar for watches, but whenever it is officially available, users will get several useful features, like the ability to view your 30-day schedule, get notifications of upcoming events and tasks, and also start navigation to your meetings with Google Maps.
