Samsung Health Feature Requests and Feedback

[user24cEoILQGX]

I have a feature request that would be a very helpful for weight training, to have a page to add and customize your workouts like squats and benchpress etc, as well as create a routine that you can follow with integration on samsung health on the watch, example apps jefit and strong lifts.

This post was merged with this thread because it was deemed to have a similar topic with this thread (which seems to cover all Health topics). It appears that when threads are merged any tags from the original thread are lost. So let me add to this that this is for the app on Galaxy Watch 6.

I recently got a Galaxy 7 watch, my first smart watch. I'm especially interested in using it to track my sleep - which it's been doing fine in Samsung Health, but I was also hoping to use the "sleep animal" for better sleep coaching.

When I went to set up the Sleep Animal, I was asked to input my days of the week off. I'm recently retired - ALL my days are days off now! But it doesn't allow you to select all seven days of the week (or no days). You have to select at least one but no more than six days off. This does not allow for my presumably common situation.

Please update to allow all/no days off.

I did not think the sleep animal was of interest to anyone.  Personally, I think it's one of the most useless features of the health app -- even more useless than the badges.

How do I get rid of that stupid sleep animal?1?  That was certainly a mistake to investigate that, and am now stuck with a stupid penguin.

Well, I would have liked to see for myself whether the Sleep Animal was useful....but knowing that people find it useless (or worse), I won't sweat it. Thanks for the replies!

I actually love the sleep coaching, but as with anything, you have to desire to improve that area to begin with.

Can we have an option to adjust the sleep timing for the energy score? I try my best to have a good score every day, however I work night shift and go to bed between 6 and 7am and keep getting a bad score due to this 

[realaud]

Set your sleep target and sleeping hours in the health app. Go to the sleep tile, tap the dots and select "set target". The enter your bedtime and wakeup times. It could slso be that the energy score is based on the "normal" sleep schedules and doesn't take ino account other sleep cycles for the calculation. But set your target hours snd see if that helps.

I also would prefer to have this window of sleep start time to be customizable. It should be at least changing slowly across time to follow your own circadian cycle, assuming this cycle can change a bit based on the individual. Or, explain in more detail why this is not how the scoring works.

I do get that you cannot get a perfect score if you work night shifts. But it should be explained a bit better, if that is what it is.

Is there a way to submit new medications to be reviewed in order add to the overall database?
