In the Apps screen, swipe right to left until you locate the Samsung Gear icon in the Apps screen.
Next, tap the Samsung Gear icon.
The icon gets your attention: It’s a bright orange box that has the word Gear in it.

You can connect with the Gear S2 by turning on your Gear S2 and then tapping Connect to have the app search for the smartwatch.
After a few seconds, the smartwatch connects with the Gear S2 and a notification appears on your smartphone.
