"Great to build and test Tizen OS apps"
5/5
What do you like best about Tizen Studio?

It has a very user-friendly UI and gives almost a similar look and feel like most of the famous IDE like eclipse and android studio, which makes it easy to use. The built-in emulator is very useful as it allows a user to easily develop and test the app's behavior on a variety of Tizen devices without actually having to buy the hardware devices for the test. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen Studio?

The standard emulator doesn't come with a Tizen store, thus it doesn't allow a user to run standard Tizen apps and only the side-loaded ones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Inevitable pain"
1/5
What do you like best about Tizen Studio?

There really isn't much to like in Tizen Studio. The only advantage in my opinion is that it's based on Eclipse IDE, thus inherits its keyboard shortcuts and layout. Also you don't have to pay for this software - it's free to download and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen Studio?

Random errors, requiring relaunching the app, or commenting and then uncommenting the code just to build. The community is small and error codes are ambiguous, so searching for a solution of particular problem might be really troubling. The IDE lacks dark mode, the certificates sometimes take few hours to be issued, and the default settings add another layer of diiscomfort. Issuing a certificate requires creating at least one account, which is rather time-consuming. And after creating the certificate, you might want to create another one, because you just got a new type of smartwatch, which wasn not included in the first certificate. In the end, just preparing to code takes lots of time. And when coding, it's not much better - one of the worst errors in my work was the compiler not seeing a library, while the IDE was actively suggesting its name. In the end I had to redo few hours of coding from scratch. Even the connection with smartwatch isn't reliable, and requires trying over and over again, just hoping it would work at some point.

"Very helpful IDE to install a custom application on Samsung Smart TV with Tizen OS."
5/5
What do you like best about Tizen Studio?

The ability to create, compile and install custom applications on Samsung Smart TV powered by Tizen OS. You can start with already pre-built demo applications and extend them to your expectations. The API is powerful and fully documented. There are a lot of examples and code snippets on the internet. Just google for "Tizen Studio web application example" and you will see that. For example, to start with developing an application for your Smart TV go to this article https://developer.tizen.org/development/training/web-application/getting-started/creating-your-first-tizen-tv-web-application. I completely recommend this IDE as a simple and stable product to dive deeper to the world of developing media applications for Smart TVs. And one more very nice thing is that this IDE is completely free. You can download it right now from the official site https://www.tizen.org and just start to use it. Good luck!

"Tizen Studio is similar to Android Studio, but simiple in interface."
5/5
What do you like best about Tizen Studio?

I like it's simplicity. The interface is similar to older models with just that of Visual Studios. There are less icons and and options making it easier to navigate around the application. I also like that you can develop in either C, HTML, JavaScript and CSS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen Studio?

What I dislike about the application is it's hard to navigate to the preview of the emulator. I wish it would just load up when I start the program. I had setup a file, and it's nice to run the emulator, but I wish I could have seen the template when I loaded the file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not Intuitive"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Tizen Studio?

Tizen is necessary when developing applications for Samsung products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen Studio?

Compared to other C/C++ software programs, Tizen is not intuitive and is more difficult to use. It is also harder to navigate, and there are a lot of software accompanied when downloading Tizen Studio.

Also since not many people use Tizen Studio, it is hard to find support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
