Various methods, including root access and community tools from Reddit and XDA forums, are available for installing apps on Tizen watches after support ends.

Consumers are encouraged to upgrade to newer smartwatches, such as the Galaxy Watch 8, Galaxy Watch Ultra, or Google's Pixel Watch 4.

After support ends, users can still use previously downloaded apps, but once deleted, they cannot be re-downloaded, and no further updates will be available.

Since 2021, new Galaxy smartwatches are exclusively shipped with Wear OS, with Tizen now only developed for other devices like Smart TVs.

While the Tizen Store remains accessible until the end, no new free content has been available since June 2025, though existing apps can still be used.

Samsung's Tizen OS for Galaxy smartwatches is approaching its end of support, with the Galaxy Store set to cease offering content starting September 30, 2025.

Support for Tizen on Galaxy smartwatches will officially end on September 30, 2025, including the shutdown of the Tizen Store and app installation options.

This transition affects a range of devices, from the Galaxy Watch series to older models like Gear S3, Gear Sport, and Galaxy Gear, with the last Tizen-based watch being the Galaxy Watch 3 released in 2020.

The phase-out began with the discontinuation of paid content in September 2024, followed by free content in March 2025, and now culminates in the final shutdown of new downloads.
