Manage sounds and vibration on your Samsung smart watch

You can modify the sounds on your smart watch to hear every notification and message, or customize what alerts you'll hear. You also have the option of using a number of temporary modes like Do not disturb, Theater mode, and Bedtime mode to silence everything while you're occupied.

1. On your smart watch, navigate to and open Settings.
2. Swipe to and tap Sounds and vibration. From here you can adjust the options for volume, ringtone, notifications, and more.
   

The following options are available:

• Sound mode: Set the default sound style for your watch. Select Sound or Vibrate if you prefer to be alerted immediately, or select Mute if you’d rather look at your alerts later. To have your watch vibrate while it rings, tap the switch next to Vibrate with sound or Vibrate while ringing.
• Vibration: Adjust the vibration settings. You can change the vibration's length (Short or Long) or strength (Light or Strong) depending on your preference.
• Call vibration: Change the vibration pattern for when your watch receives calls.
• Notification vibration: Change the vibration pattern for when your watch receives notifications.
• Volume: Choose the volume for your ringtone, media sounds, notifications, system alerts, and Bixby Voice.
• Ringtone: Pick a unique option for your watch's ringtone, so you can hear exactly what you want when someone is calling.
• Notification sound: Select your preferred sound for notifications.
• System vibration: Enable or disable system vibration. If this feature is disabled, your watch will not vibrate when receiving system notifications or when performing certain functions.
• System sounds: Adjust different settings for the watch's system sounds. For example, you can have the watch vibrate every time you select something.

You can control your smart watch's sound settings directly from the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone. The same options on your smart watch will be available here as well, so you can easily adjust your watch without having it on.

1. Make sure your phone and watch are paired, and then open the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone.
2. If you have more than one device, make sure to select your watch. Tap Watch settings, and then tap Sounds and vibration.
   
   Note: On some device models, you don't need to tap Watch settings; you can tap Sounds and vibration directly from the watch's Home screen in the app.
