The popular Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 series, including both the regular and classic styles, won’t work with iPhones. This is due to a software incompatibility between the watch’s operating system (Wear OS 4 with Samsung’s One UI Watch 5) and Apple’s iOS.

While older Samsung Galaxy Watch models like the 3, Active, and Active 2 functioned with iPhones, the newer ones starting with Watch 4 have switched to Wear OS, making them incompatible.

This isn’t just a corporate battle; it’s about software. The new OS allows for features like Google Assistant, Maps, and advanced health tracking, which wouldn’t work on iPhones.
