Why in the world would you take away the ability to back up our watches manually in the Wearable app? Make it make sense, I have to wait for what is now "PERIODICALLY" to back up my watch, how often is periodically? If you switch to store backups to Samsung Cloud, how does that work, when does that happen?
My watch stopped backing up back in May and I have no idea why... wifi is good, it's signed into my samsung account, it's connected to my phone
I did notice that in the "devices" section of my samsing account, I don't see my watch at all. Even though in my watch settings, I see that I'm logged in.
On my watch when I went to "accounts and backup" on the watch settings, if you scroll down it had a little link to "on your phone set backups to be saved to Samsung cloud" I clicked the link and it opened the setting on my phone about the watch backup. Mine was turned off. Hoping it'll backup over night now. I'll keep you posted. You might try that though.
