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 bench press 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.
Excuse meIt'd be nice if you all could read blood sugar like you read.Everything else are those fancy watches from asia.Read blood sugars on top of everything else
That is likely not going to happen, even though it would be nice. For one thing, it would require FDA approval, so it would take years even if they wanted to add it. The current CGMs on the market require piercing of the skin for the most accurate reading and the best location for that is the arm or stomach. I don't see a way of doing that with the watch. If one could measure blood glucose through sweat or skin oils, It would not only be revolutionary, there would likely already be a device for that on the market, and I have not seen any. We can dream, though, can't we?

Ability to set weekly exercise goals. Most exercise targets and guidelines are based per week (eg 150 minutes of cardio a week or strength training 3x a week). Most people do not or should not exercise every single day. Every other fitness app I've used had this and it was very helpful for tracking and also motivating. Very surprised and disappointed this is missing from samsung health and I will likely be switching because of it.
Ability to track "intensity" minutes or aerobic zone minutes. A very common metric and exercise target is at least 150 minutes of aerobic exercise a week. There is no way to track this in this app. I only see "active" minutes, which includes activity such as walking around the kitchen. This is very different than aerobic exercise.
Better and easier tracking of active minutes, aerobic minutes, strenght training etc. Basic fitness tracking should include ability to easily see how many aerobic minutes per week and month, and the trends over time. Am I maintaining my exercise time or improving since last month or the last3 months? This is critical information that is missing and sadly it's also demotivating.
Add notifications tat are actually helpful, actionable, or motivating. My prior watches and apps had occasional notifications such as a notification towards the end of the week "30.min of aerobic activity needed to reach your weekly target". Very helpful and kept me on track! This is the purpose of a fitness tracker
My name is Gabriel, Iโm from Brazil, and I have multiple sclerosis. I use the Medication feature a lot to help me with reminders. Since the feature is not officially available here yet, Iโve been using it in developer mode through the US server. However, I noticed some points that could be improved:
1. Critical alerts
Add an option to bypass Do Not Disturb mode and display a full-screen alert on any screen (not only on the lock screen).
2. Smarter scheduling system
Allow scheduling by intervals (e.g., every 12h), not only by fixed times.
Example: if I set a reminder for 8 a.m. but take it at 9 a.m., the next reminder should be automatically adjusted to 9 p.m.
This would also fix a common issue: if I configure a medication for every 12 hours and start at 8 p.m., the app still schedules one at 8 a.m. on the same day, which shows up as โmissed,โ even though it shouldnโt exist.
3. Measurement units
Fix the drop system: currently, each drop is counted as 1 ml, which doesnโt reflect reality. For instance, if I register 10 ml as the remaining volume and confirm that I took 5 drops, the app deducts 5 ml, when it should deduct only 5 drops (~0.25 ml).
Increase the maximum volume limit: today itโs capped at 99.5 ml, but in some cases (e.g., nasal rinse), I use around 240 ml every morning.
4. More practical inventory management
Add the option to insert pre-defined quantities.
Example: if I have 5 capsules left and buy a box of 28, instead of adding manually, I could just select a pre-configured button (28) to update the stock.
5. Daily health notes
Although not part of the Medication feature, it would be very useful to have a health notes system, similar to the one available in the Cleo app by Biogen.
6. Older Start Dates
The ability to select a start date that is more than one month in the past.
