This means that users of older models, such as Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Watch 3, Galaxy Watch Active, and Galaxy Watch Active 2, will face limitations in functionality and access to applications.

One of the main changes is the discontinuation of the Galaxy Store for Tizen smartwatches.

According to the schedule published by Reddit user Seaweed_Maximum, the sale of paid content for Tizen watches will be stopped by 30 September 2024. By 31 May 2025, the possibility of downloading free applications will cease altogether.
