We’ve been asking for a long time for Google to take Wear OS seriously. Very few manufacturers are concerned with launching new watches with this operating system, and even less those who maintain their models with updates.
One of the ones that does it the best is Mobvoi, which surely has in its TicWatch the best Wear OS watches that we can buy in Spain.
Today it has released an update of the TicWatch Pro 3 that, although it does not incorporate any striking novelties, corrects and polishes the system in multiple ways. It is PYDA.200427.080.MRB.210114.001.
List of changes and improvements in TicWatch Pro 3
As we say, there are many changes that we see in the firmware that is reaching the owners of this watch.
New functions:
- Support to adjust display date format (DD-MM / MM-DD) through Essential Mode app.
- Ability to turn on the backlight via the power button in essential mode.
- We can turn off the automatic backlight of the essential screen in the Essential Mode app.
- Notification sound activation (can be adjusted in Settings -> Sound -> Ring volume).
Improvements:
- Tilt-to-wake screen speed improved by approximately 0.25 seconds.
- Resolved issue where essential mode steps could sometimes be partially lost after reboot.
- The fluidity of the interface has been improved.
- The response area at the edge of the screen has been optimized.
- Reduced the brightness of the essential display backlight.
- Improved pairing speed when pairing with Android phones.
Along with those changes, a few issues have been resolved, such as causing the essential display backlight to be unable to tilt-to-wake at certain times.
The problem has also been fixed that double-clicking the function key would sometimes open other applications instead of Google Pay.
