Does Okta Verify support Samsung Galaxy Watches?
I'm currently using Okta Verify on Android (Samsung Galaxy S8+) with an Android Wear watch (LG Urbane). The push notifications come over to the watch and approving them works great. I about to upgrade my phone and watch to the latest Samsung Galaxy devices. Will the Okta Verify app on Android work with the current Tizen-based Samsung Galaxy watches?
I saw a post on here, "Okta push approval has stopped working with Samsung Smart Watch" (https://support.okta.com/help/s/question/0D51Y000081m7Ju/okta-push-approval-has-stopped-working-with-samsung-smart-watch), that reported the push approval broke back in March. That post did not have a resolution.
Hi Chris,
We don't have a native Android Smart Watch app anymore. However, as long as your Smart Watch is able to receive the notifications from your phone and take action on it (approve or deny), then you should be fine, and it'll work just as well as it has for your current Smart Watch. Be sure to reset Okta Verify before switching phones to avoid getting locked out - here is how you do it: https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Mobile/okta-verify-enroll-new-device-existing-users.htm
