Buds 3 in z fold 7 App wearable

[Jonatan]

I have a Z Fold 7 and Samsung Buds 3, but they won't connect in the Wearables app. How can I pair them? I don't know why the error occurs, since it's all Samsung...

You now have to pair them inside of the phones bluetooth settings Earbuds were removed from the wearable app

@Jonatan Starting with UI 8, the buds no longer connect to the wearable app. The settings for the buds show up in the Bluetooth settings.

It's also on your settings page right under your profile when the case is open.

You can also get to the Buds Manager on the settings page right under your profile when the case is open.

Does anyone else feel like this was an insult? I love my Samsung ecosystem. Then they had to go and part it? The amount of money we spend on the top tier stuff and it gets separated!? Say it isn't so? Tell me this is a temp thing due to UI 8 being a real pain to get out. Otherwise we just bought the latest Fold 7 only to have my Buds pro 3s no longer be with my watch in wearable app. Instead we connect to OG way back to Bluetooth. Might as well be rocking someone else's brand if that's the case. 😡

This is a good thing, in my opinion. You don't need the wear app if you only have Buds. There are 4 different ways to access the Buds Manager:

1. Bluetooth settings, by tapping on the cog wheel.

2. Settings page, right under your profile when the case is open.

3 In the Quick Panel on the volume slider by long pressing the slider.

4. The Buds widget, by far my favorite.

To be fair yes all that is accessible. The widget was my main way to use then, which that's all great. However using and adjusting all my goodies in one spot was my main point. Buds, watch, ring. One spot for all makes me want all Samsung stuff in that app. Without that, if feels like doesn't matter what Buds I use now if it's all by BT only. Had they never merged and the unmerged, I probably would not be on here. These are my opinions I'd like Samsung to hear.

I agree with Doggodaddy. I, as a user, prefer to have all my accessories in one place on the Wearable app, it was perfect. Now, in my opinion, they damaged it.
