Galaxy Watch 3 hand gesture for answering a call
Galaxy Watch models already let you take a screenshot, but with the Galaxy Watch 3, the method to do so will change. Right now, you are required to press the bottom button while swiping left simultaneously to take a screenshot. With the new wearable, you will have to hold both side buttons at the same time to take a screen capture.
The Galaxy Watch 3 will also let you silence alarms and incoming calls with a twist of your wrist. To capture a picture or video in the Camera Controller app, you will have to make a fist and open it.

The APK teardown also reveals that the Galaxy Watch 3 will get a fall detection feature. If the accessory suspects you have fallen down, it will ring for a minute and if it doesn’t get a response from you, it will send your location and a five-second voice recording to your emergency contacts. Additionally, you will also be able to ask the watch to place an emergency call.
The new watch will also have accessibility features for the visually impaired such as enlarging the size of text and icons and reducing eye strain using Color Lens.
