Does anybody know if you can use the gear as a mobile hotspot

Hi @mrathb, 

I've had a look through the spec/user guide and I don't believe this is an option.

If any of the community are using one, I'm sure they'll update you shortly. 

Thanks,

Hi @mrathb

Kay had a look through the spec/user guide yesterday and couldn't find anything to indicate this would be possible. 

I've just has another look myself and it doesn't appear you'll be able to use the Samsung Gear S as a mobile hotspot. 

Thanks,
