First 10 things to do with your new Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 or Watch 8 Classic
The Galaxy Watch 8 works fine out of the box, but the experience really improves once you customize things and change your settings.
If you specifically have the Watch 8 Classic, you can edit the third Quick button; it defaults to Samsung Health exercises but can open your stopwatch, flashlight, water lock, camera controller, or voice recorder instead. Its companion is the Shake gesture: Twisting your fist up 90 degrees will also dismiss alerts and timers, as well as decline incoming calls or return to the main watch face from a notification. I've always found customizing on-watch to be really finicky, so I recommend using the mobile Galaxy Wearable app, where you can see more options at once, including tons of "Premade" styles with varied colors and backgrounds.
