My name is Wayne, this is my first time posting here, please let me know if this post is OK for here.
I’m an old school analogue film photographer and freelance developer, and I built an ambient light meter utility designed specifically for Wear OS, and I am looking for a niche group of testers who love film photography but also has a Wear OS watch :)
My goal for the app:
Carrying a dedicated light meter around when shooting old fully manual film cameras can be a hassle, and taking your phone out and use the light meter app on the phone can be dangerous in a big city as it may get snatched by kids on electric bikes! so I wanted a tool right on my wrist that utilizes the watch's ambient light sensor. I want to sell the app on the play store as I am in between jobs and need a bit of side income! (want to sell it for around $1.7 USD)
What it does:
• Shutter Priority (TV Mode): Input your shutter speed and ISO to get the exact calculated aperture.
• Aperture Priority (AV Mode): Input your aperture and ISO to calculate the shutter speed.
• Hold / Lock Feature: Point your watch’s ambient light sensor at your scene/light source, lock the exposure reading, and turn your wrist back to read it comfortably.
• 100% Standalone: Runs entirely on the watch without needing a phone companion app.
Need Your Help Testing (Google 14-Day Requirement)
To meet Google’s production requirement, I need testers to opt into the closed test and keep the app installed for 14 days.
Because this is a paid app on Google Play, I will be providing 100% free promo codes so nobody has to pay anything.
Requirements to test:
A Wear OS smartwatch (Galaxy Watch 4/5/6/7, Pixel Watch, TicWatch, etc.).
Compatible with smartwatches running Wear OS 3.0 and newer (Android 11+, API 30+).
Willing to keep the app installed for 14 days and share any brief feedback or bug reports.
(Note: My test is currently restricted to USA/Canada/ UK/EU and Japan Google Play accounts)
How to Join:
Send me a DM with your watch model.
I’ll DM you your personal Google Play Promo Code and the Closed Testing link.
Redeem the code on Google Play, install it on your watch, and let me know how it feels!
Any feedback on sensor accuracy, UX/UI , or battery impact would be highly appreciated. Thanks so much!
Hi! I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I own a Nothing Phone 2 and I want to buy a smartwatch. I am between 2 models: Nothing Watch cmf 3 pro and Samsung watch 9.
The CMF watch is more compatible with my phone but it does not have all the functions the Samsung has. The battery is much better, cheap compared to the Samsung but the premium feeling of the Samsung is kind of tempting.
Platform / requirements: Wear OS 3+; the watch game runs on its own, with no phone needed to play. There is also a separate Android phone/tablet version.
Cost: The Wear OS watch game is free, with all 110 levels and the Daily Run available without ads or a premium purchase. Levels open in order as you beat them. The phone version is free with ads and has a one-time Remove ads purchase.
Goal: Share the game and hear how it plays on different watches.
Giveaway: None.
What it is
A little kangaroo adventure for your wrist. Roo and the joey chase Boss Maggie and her gang across Australia, with story comics between worlds and joey missions along the way.
How it plays on the watch
Touch is the default: tap to jump, tap again for a double jump, and use the umbrella to glide. As you progress, you slide under snowy branches, ride emus, swing on vines and climb giant karri trees.
You can also choose arm-motion controls: pull your watch toward you to jump while keeping the screen in view. It's an option in the game, so you can use whichever control style feels better.
What's in the adventure
• 110 levels across 11 Australian worlds, from the Outback and beach to the snowy mountains, opal mine and Karri Canopy
• Magpies to dodge, umbrella blocks and a boss fight at Maggie's nest
• Coins, kangaroo costumes and an earned rating of up to three boomerangs per level
• A Daily Run, streaks and a world map with saved progress
Privacy and languages
The watch game has no ads or tracking, and motion controls are processed on the watch. No account is needed for the adventure. The app supports English, Simplified Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, Arabic, French, Bengali, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Indonesian and Hebrew.
Media
The round screenshots show the Wear OS version captured on an emulator. The combined gameplay video shows Android phone and Wear OS watch gameplay side by side. Watch video scenes are emulator-rendered captures.
Feedback welcome — especially your watch model, whether touch or motion feels better, and any small-screen readability or performance issues. Happy to answer questions about the game.
Samsung's native settings for the Galaxy Watch Ultra/2 Quick Button feel pretty locked down—you can only bind a single stock shortcut and you lose single/double/long press flexibility. I wanted to turn the physical buttons into an actual Swiss Army knife without background battery drain—so I built Ultra Remapper.
It's 100% free, tracker-free, standalone on the watch, and open-source under GPLv3.
Key Features on the Watch:
Triple-Gesture Quick Button & Bottom Button Mapping: Independently remap Single Press, Double Press, and Long Press on the Orange Quick Button, plus Long Press on the Bottom button (short press remains untouched for native Back navigation).
Autonomous In-Watch OTA Updates: Once sideloaded, you never need ADB or a phone companion app again for future updates. When a new release hits GitHub, download and install it directly on the watch screen with a single tap via native PackageInstaller.
Smart Contextual Diagnostics: The app won't nag you with permission banners unless an action you actually configured requires them (e.g. Accessibility only for bottom button/flashlight boost, Secure Settings only for glove/LTE mode). Basic app launches require zero extra permissions.
Samsung Flashlight Boost: Opens official Samsung Flashlight, detects screen state dynamically with zero idle battery impact, boosts brightness to hardware maximum (level 12) on repeat press, and shuts off cleanly.
Smart Parking GPS & Walking Navigation: One tap saves exact GPS coordinates. Another action opens Google Maps in walking navigation mode straight back to your car.
Acoustic Water Ejection: Synthesizes a 165 Hz diaphragm resonance tone routed through the hardware emergency/alarm channel at 100% volume with synchronized vibration bursts to clear trapped water droplets.
Samsung Health Shortcuts: Launch workouts, jump straight to the exercise selector, or open the GPX Route Workout mode directly.
Home Assistant Voice Assist: Triggers the official Home Assistant Companion conversation interface on the watch without having to configure local tokens.
Bridged Media & KDE Connect Controls: Play/pause, track skipping, and volume control for local playback as well as bridged phone media sessions (including KDE Connect controlling a PC/tablet).
Tactical Utilities: Full-screen red night-vision flashlight (100% red screen), Glove Mode (high touch sensitivity toggle), and Keep-Awake / Sideload mode (prevents screen lock/WiFi sleep during wireless file transfers).
Localized UI: Complete translations in English, Spanish, German, and French.
Tested thoroughly on Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. Some actions require standard wireless ADB commands to assign the Quick Button routing permission, after which everything is configured and updated on-wrist.
Feedback, bug reports, and PRs are welcome! Hope you guys find it useful for getting the most out of your watches.
I got fed up with the current mood rating apps and health tracking being all over the place. I needed somewhere it call be tracked in one place and I can see all the data, set reminders, tracking etc. So I made this. I'm still testing and it's go a way to go but interested to see what you people think.
It has Wear Os companion app and a watchface with themed complications, Dials or numbers, changeable colours.
If you have any interesting feature ideas pop them below. I may run a test flight in the future once I feel it's in a good enough place!
I received the Motorola Watch Ultra, I have ordered it from Amazon DE. It looks great! I think it is much better than the Xiaomi Watch 5. Very good quality, excellent screen and smooth operating system. I like it a lot!
I've built a training app for Wear OS watches, RawPace, and I'm looking for people who train with their watch and would like to try it before it's published.
What it is: an app for running (road and trail), cycling (road, MTB and gravel) and hiking (trekking and walking), with routes with turn-by-turn navigation and offline maps on the watch itself, fully customizable data screens designed to be read on the move, and interval workouts. It supports Bluetooth heart rate straps, syncs with Strava, Runalyze and Health Connect, and exports FIT and GPX. No account needed. More at rawpace.app.
Why I made it: I've used sports watches for many years (Garmin, Suunto, Coros, Polar, Amazfit…) and every now and then I tried to move to Wear OS for its flexibility (NFC payments, LTE…), but GPS and heart rate weren't where I needed them and I always went back to a sports brand. Current Wear OS watches have improved a lot, and in my experience their data is now good enough to train with. What still frustrated me were the apps: screens you can barely customize, no external heart rate strap, no route following. So I started, without big plans, building the app I wanted. It grew much more than I expected, and I think it now covers what most people who train regularly need.
What I'm looking for:
Testing on different watches. I've only been able to test it in depth on two (Pixel Watch 5 and Galaxy Watch7), plus a few more through early testers, and I need to know how it behaves on others.
Honest feedback on what works, what's unnecessary and what's missing, so I know what to polish before release.
Requirements: a watch with Wear OS 5 or later and an Android phone (it doesn't work with iPhone).
How to join: email [hello@rawpace.app](mailto:hello@rawpace.app) with your watch model, your phone and the Google account you use on Google Play (please don't post your email in the comments). I'll add you to the test and send you the install link. The step-by-step guide and what's worth testing are here: rawpace.app/test. It's in Google Play's internal testing, so the store page shows the package name, com.rawpace.app (unreviewed), with a generic icon: that's normal at this stage. I'll give access gradually, so it may take a few days. If you tell me in a comment which watch and phone you have, it helps me prioritize.
Testing is free, and thanks in advance to anyone who wants to help. When it's released, the plan is a one-time purchase, and everyone who tested it will get it for free as a thank-you.
Hablo español — if you prefer, write to me in Spanish ([hola@rawpace.app](mailto:hola@rawpace.app)). The app and the guide are available in Spanish too.
What it does:
Thoth is a local-first AI personal memory companion, notes vault, and voice assistant for Wear OS and Android that remembers important details from your conversations and notes in an on-device SQLite database.

Cost: Free tier available (local notes, tasks sync, reminders, Wear OS companion, and 5 AI messages/day with a small banner ad on phone). Optional Pro upgrade is $1.99/month (removes ads and unlocks higher AI message & token limits).
Well, I do know that most of you guys will tell me that I won’t be able to connect a galaxy watch to an android tablet but trust me I have done it before with an old Samsung tablet s6 lite.
I connected a gear s3, a galaxy watch 4, and a galaxy watch 6.
I did it without any complicated stuff or rooting my tablet. I just installed old apks of the galaxy wearable, a galaxy watch manager/plugin, Samsung accessories service and Samsung health. After installing all the apks, I opened Bluetooth and selected my watch to connect and it somehow bypassed tablet restrictions and started pairing easily. I don’t really have many photos for proof but I do have a photo of my gear s3 connected to my tablet.
I am asking any smart developers or some talented people if they could help me connect my galaxy watches to my new OnePlus tablet. The reason is because the old method is simply not working mostly due to not having a Samsung device which might have Samsung components allowing me to connect the watch to a Samsung tablet by performing a glitch.
So, can someone please help me connect my galaxy watch 4 and 6 to my tablet as I don’t have any other android device in my family and I’m just not allowed to borrow other peoples devices.
Also I would prefer to not do risky things like root or install sketchy applications as I might get in trouble.
I would also mostly prefer connecting it to this device even if it might be little complicated as it would help me explore and understand more about these stuff.
Ever since third-party apps vanished, browsing Reddit comfortably on a smartwatch felt practically dead. I wanted a modern, buttery-smooth client that felt truly native on Wear OS—so I built Red for Reddit.
It's completely free, tracker-free, and open-source under GPLv3.
Key Features on the Watch:
Continuous Always-On Display (AOD) Reading: When your wrist goes down, the exact post, article, or comment tree stays visible in a pure GPU-monochrome high-contrast mode (1Hz AMOLED friendly, zero screen blur, massive battery savings).
Smooth Image Carousel: Swipe through multi-photo galleries with your finger (HorizontalPager) complete with Instagram-style pagination dots and counter.
Native Video Player: Integrated ExoPlayer supporting HLS and MP4 streams with audio unmute and loop.
Rotary & Bezel Support: Smooth haptic scrolling using Horologist Rotary on Galaxy Watch rotating bezels and Pixel Watch crowns.
Comment Tree & Interaction: Upvote, downvote, save, reply via on-screen keyboard or voice-to-text, and edit/delete your own comments.
Glanceable Tiles: 3 interactive Tiles for your carousel (Personal Feed, Saved Posts, and Flash Headlines—no useless karma widgets).
Search & Filter: Search communities and posts by Sort (Hot, New, Top, Relevance) and Time range (Day, Week, Month, All).
Autonomous Long-Term Session: Sign in once with the companion app; the watch maintains and refreshes its own session autonomously without needing your phone nearby.
Multilingual: Automatic locale detection (English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian) including relative timestamps ("2h ago", "hace 2h", "il y a 2h", etc.).
11 Years ago I published an app called Krona Sunlight, "The Ultimate Weather Forecast Interactive Multi-Screen Watch Face". 🤓
11 Years ago - developed on the original Moto 360
6 years ago it all fell apart. Apple bought the weather provider the app relied on, Google changed what a watch face was allowed to do, and I had moved to the US on a visa that didn't let me work on commercial apps. Meanwhile, clones of the app popped up online.
4 months ago I got my Green Card, dug out the old source code, and started over. I rewrote my beloved watch face for today's weather providers, worked around Google's restrictions, and turned it into a full watch app with its own watch face and quick-access tiles.
Then I finished something I'd been asked for years ago: a marine version for someone with a boat. That became Krona Tidewater, with tides, waves, wind and a verdict on whether conditions suit your sport at your spot.
And since I'm an astrophysicist, I wanted to know whether modern watches and phones can predict when a satellite pass will actually be visible. They can, so now there's also Krona Moonrise, for the sun, moon, stars, eclipses, meteor showers and satellite passes.
What makes the Krona apps different?
They're watch-first. One colorful ring shows the next 24 hours at a glance:
Krona Sunlight · Temperature & rain · Wind & gusts · Humidity & UV: Sunny or cloudy, wet or dry? When does the rain start, how heavy will the snow get, and is tomorrow warmer or colder than today?
Krona Moonrise · Sun & moon · Satellite pass · Compass: How clear will the stars be tonight? Which satellite passes over next? When does the moon set, the sun rise, the next eclipse begin, and how many meteors will the shower bring?
Krona Tidewater · Tide & verdict · Wind & waves · Shore weather: What's the wind doing at my surf spot? Is the tide low or high, how big is the swell and what's its period, and are conditions any good?
It's all right there on your wrist. Use the ring as your watch face, add the app's tiles beside whatever face you wear, or open the watch app and tap the center to cycle through the three screens.
Krona started as watch faces. When I reworked them into standalone apps, I made them work on the phone too, with home-screen widgets, and those widgets became the watch tiles. So all three apps now run on Android phones and Wear OS watches, but they were built for the watch first.
Data Providers
I'm very passionate about data visualization, but the underlying data needs to be reliable. I didn't want to build yet another app that shows the same free forecast everyone else shows. Krona uses professional data sources, refreshes often, and does a lot of the math right on your watch and phone.
You choose between three forecast providers: Open-Meteo comes with the app, you can plug in your own OpenWeatherMap key, or you subscribe and get Apple Weather.
With your own OpenWeatherMap key or Apple Weather, the full forecast refreshes every 15 minutes (Open-Meteo every 3 hours). Your own key also brings OpenWeatherMap's minute-by-minute rain for the next hour.
The part I'm proudest of: Krona Sunlight can provide minute-by-minute rain prediction for the next 4 hours - almost worldwide (up to about 72° north). It comes from Rainbow Weather: radar where there is radar, satellite imagery where there isn't, at about 1 km resolution and updated every 10 minutes. In Germany, Austria and Norway the even more precise national weather services' own radar takes the first hour. Krona's imminent rain prediction in Germany is crazy accurate for example. (Most other apps only have minute rain in a handful of countries.)
Everything in the sky is computed on the device: sun, moon and planets, eclipses (from NASA's eclipse data), meteor showers (International Meteor Organization), satellite orbits (CelesTrak) and the aurora (from NOAA's forecasts).
Satellite passes aren't just "when is it overhead" - it checks whether you can actually see it (lit by the sun, dark sky, bright enough, no clouds in the way) and rates the pass from Invisible to Excellent.
The clouds are the part I haven't seen anywhere else: it traces your line of sight to the moon, a planet or a satellite through the low, mid and high cloud layers, using the finest weather model for where you are - NOAA's HRRR at 3 km over the US, DWD's ICON-D2 at about 2 km over central Europe, and ICON-EU or global ICON everywhere else.
Krona Tidewater
Krona Tidewater (experimental)
This one might still need some work to be actually useful.
Waves, swell and sea temperature from Open-Meteo's marine models, tides from WorldTides, and the weather at your spot's exact coordinates - not some grid cell a few miles inland.
It reads the coastline off the map and works out which way your beach faces, so it knows onshore from offshore wind and swell.
The verdict comes from your own ranges for your sport (surf, kite, windsurf, paddle, swim or sail), not from someone else's idea of a good day.
Most of this data isn't free
Here's the part nobody likes: Apple Weather, Rainbow's minute-by-minute rain and the commercial weather, marine and map feeds all bill by volume once you're past a small free allowance - and refreshing the full forecast every 15 minutes, for every user, adds up fast. On top of that I run the servers that fetch, cache and combine it all (and build the cloud tiles for Moonrise). So I tried to keep it fair: the free parts are really free, and the subscriptions pay for the expensive data.
Krona Sunlight - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lordskippy.kronasunlight - $4.99 once, with Open-Meteo forecasts included. Got your own OpenWeatherMap key? Plug it in at no extra cost. The subscription is $2.99/month or $17.99/year (7-day free trial) and brings Apple Weather, minute-by-minute rain worldwide, the full forecast every 15 minutes, and the widgets and tiles.
Krona Moonrise - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lordskippy.kronamoonrise - free. The whole sky, the clouds along your line of sight, satellite passes, star visibility, the aurora, plus widgets and tiles - no subscription needed. Premium Weather is $0.99/month or $9.49/year (7-day free trial) and adds rain, dew and frost to the ring.
Krona Tidewater - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lordskippy.kronatidewater - free at one fixed spot (Hossegor, France), with the whole app, watch included. The subscription is $2.99/month or $17.99/year (7-day free trial) and lets you pin your own spots, plus the widgets and tiles.
One subscription covers your phone and your watch. Prices are in US dollars; Google Play shows them in your local currency.
Title: I made a free, open-source Action button remapper for the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 (single, double and long press)
The orange Action button on the Ultra 2 only lets you pick a workout, which I never use. So I built **Ultra2 Remapper*\*: you can set the single press, double press and long press separately to:
- open any app (mine opens Gear Tracker II)
- play / pause, next track, previous track (works with Spotify and anything else that's playing on the watch)
- volume up / down
The emergency siren (hold 5–6 s) still works as normal.
**How it works:*\* the Action button never sends normal key events, so the usual accessibility-based remappers can't see it. Instead, Samsung hands every press to a system setting that names which app should handle it (Samsung Health by default). You point that setting at Ultra2 Remapper once over adb, and the watch tells the app whether it was a single, double or long press. No accessibility service, and no battery drain from listening in the background.
**Setup:*\* one-time adb over wireless debugging (4 commands, all in the README). After that you change mappings in the app on the watch.
C'est avec désespoir que je vous écris ici. J'ai vu qu'il existait des solutions pour pouvoir connecter son téléphone qui est en ROM chinoise avec une smartwatch sur Wear OS. Dans mon cas la Google pixel watch 5.
Il me reste 14 jours avant de devoir la renvoyer pour profiter de ma garantie.
J'ai en ma possession le Oppo Find X10 Pro Max.
J'ai tout tenté le transfert via un autre appareil Android, via des tools mais en vain...
Pourtant il est noté sur plusieurs Reddit que cela fonctionne avec de la bidouille.
Alors est-ce moi le souci? Est-ce que j'ai bien fait les process? Je ne sais pas, j'en demande votre aide.
What it does: guides each breath with haptic taps on your wrist, one pattern for inhale and another for exhale, so you can close your eyes and follow it without looking at the screen. Techniques include box breathing, 4-7-8, extended exhale, cyclic sighing and alternate nostril. Sessions start from the phone or the watch.
I'd love to hear which watches feel best with the haptics. Vibration strength varies a lot between models.
curious what people here actually miss on their watch in 2026. the basics are covered now (maps, music, payments, fitness) but every time i look for something specific i end up with an app thats half done or abandoned.
for me its mostly small productivity stuff, quick capture of a thought, simple timers that dont need the phone, that kind of thing.
what would you install tomorrow if it existed? or whats the app you use but wish was way better?
Brief Description of app's features: Tap a tile or a complication on your watch and talk. Your phone turns it into text, offline, and saves it as a Markdown note in a folder you pick (an Obsidian vault works great).
Cost: Free. No ads, no account, no subscription. A one-time Pro unlock may come later.
I've wanted this for a long time: tap my watch, say the thought out loud, and later find it as text, not as an audio file I will never listen to again. So I built it. It's called Murlivo.
Why I built it
My best ideas show up when I'm walking, cooking or driving, and my phone is in my pocket. Every watch recorder I tried gave me audio files, and the transcription apps I tried wanted an account and my recordings on their servers. I wanted text, on my own phone, with nothing uploaded.
What it does
One tap from a tile or a complication starts recording. It keeps going with the screen off and your wrist down.
Your phone does the transcription itself. Your audio is never uploaded and there's no account. The speech model downloads once on first run; after that it even works in airplane mode.
Long recordings work too: a meeting, a dictation, a walk-and-talk. With the phone nearby, it transcribes while you speak, so the text is ready soon after you stop.
Phone out of range? The watch keeps the recording and sends it when the phone is back.
Notes are plain Markdown, one file per day, with the audio next to it. Point it at your Obsidian vault and they just show up.
I add you to the test, usually within a day. The form's thank-you page has the two install links (bookmark it); open them once you're added, then install Murlivo on your phone and from the Play Store on your watch (same Google account). Play shows it as "com.odezio.murlivo (unreviewed)" until Google finishes its review; that's normal.
Open it on the phone, pick a folder, and let the speech model download once: about 265 MB (or 150 MB for the lighter one), so Wi-Fi is best.
You need an Android 11+ phone, and a Wear OS 3+ watch if you want the wrist part. I've tested it on an OPPO Watch X3, an OPPO Find X9 Ultra and an Honor phone, so I'd really love to hear from Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch and TicWatch owners.
What would help me most
Does recording from the tile and the complication feel quick on your watch?
Try a longer recording (10 minutes or more) and tell me how long the text takes.
Record from the phone app too, and from the watch with the phone far away (then bring it back).
Does the note land where you expect, in your folder or your vault?
Your language: the app is in English, German, Spanish, French and Portuguese, and those are the languages I've tested for transcription. Others are in there, but Japanese and Korean are still weak.
About privacy, honestly: your audio and transcripts never get uploaded by Murlivo; they stay on your devices and in the folder you choose. The app does send usage stats and crash reports under a random install ID (event names, counts and timings; no name, no email, never audio or text), and you can switch that off on the About Murlivo screen in Settings.
I'll be around to answer every comment and I'll post updates here as I fix things. Thanks a lot for reading!
AI chat that runs on your watch. Talks straight to your provider. No account, no server in the middle, no analytics. Paste your key, pick a model, go.
OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, plus any OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
Why
Every AI app on Wear OS either mirrored my phone or assumed my watch only deserves 3 lines. Small screen ≠ dumb answer. I wanted to read actual technical stuff on my wrist.
What works
Streaming with Stop, Retry, Edit. Editing is linear: replaces the message, kills everything after it, regenerates. No branches.
Markdown done right: headings, lists, quotes, code blocks, tables laid out for a round screen.
LaTeX + Unicode math. Wide formulas pan sideways instead of getting shrunk to mush. Matrices, cases, aligned equations.
Keyboard and voice, both first-class.
Swap provider or model mid-chat, one continuous history.
Keys locked in Android Keystore AES-GCM. No plaintext fallback.
History stays on the watch.
What's rough
Debug-signed APK. Android will complain. Not store-grade.
adb sideload only, no Play Store.
Everything tested on emulator (Wear OS 5, round 466×466). Never touched a real watch. Voice untested on hardware.
Math is source-fallback, no native typesetting. Readable and pannable, not pretty.
Hello everyone. I’ve been using a Xiaomi Watch 5 for nearly 5–6 months now, but its sluggish performance is becoming increasingly frustrating. Is there an app available—similar to those used on smartphones—that allows for one-tap system cleanup? Regarding the ECG feature: I live in Türkiye, and it still hasn’t been enabled here. The watch’s Singapore-region product page indicates that this feature is supported. When I enable power-saving mode, the feature appears, but I cannot activate it; the system prompts me to switch back to normal mode, yet once I do, the feature disappears entirely. Is there any way to enable this without voiding the warranty? Thanks in advance.
