An update to the Tizen powered Samsung Gear 2 smartwatch has rolled out Tuesday morning, taking the software version to 2.2.1.2. The update is available from the Gear Manager on your watch, and includes improvements to S Health. The update also adds a new notifications muting feature called Blocking Mode. If you aren't in the mood to be reminded that someone is looking to get in touch with you, these notifications can be blocked.
You can even set up the watch to turn off notifications in the middle of the night, while you are dreaming about smartphones, tablets and wearables. While we don't have a changelist to provide you with the improvements made to S Health, we are told that there are some changes to improve the general stability of the watch.
