Samsung has given a first glimpse of how its smartwatches will operate in the future, after its in-house operating system Tizen is no longer around, at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

According to Samsung, apps can be installed automatically on your smartwatch when you download them on your smartphone, and the appearance of the settings menu will adapt to the layout of the corresponding mobile app. The list of phone numbers that are blocked on the smartwatch will also be synchronized with the smartphone.
