Samsung's Galaxy Watch4 is getting a software update that expands its gesture control and fall detection features.

Watch4 owners will also find more customization options for their devices, including four new watch faces and the ability to add a GIF from My Photo+, Samsung said. The new update is available from Wednesday.

Currently, Gesture Control can trigger Watch4 features through simple hand movements, such as moving your forearm up and down twice to answer calls. With the update, the Watch4 will now recognize a tap of your wrist as an action trigger.

For example, the configured action could be turning on a connected light, opening an app, or creating a new reminder. There’s no word yet on whether we’ll see other gesture controls in the future.
