I like the app very much. Since the update, it keeps crashing and now it freezes amost every time I try to enter food. :/ Thank you! I still like the app. It's not crashing anymore but the weight calculation isn't accurate. Often, it was off by .1 or .2 ounces. Today, it was off by over a pound. I tried resetting my phone and retaking the measurement but it didn't help. I even added the weight again. Didn't help either. Please help.
Reviews for Samsung Health
The app is helpful. I like that it also syncs with my watch, so I'm able to monitor my sleep, physical activity, foods eaten, etc. I do wish there was a way to give feedback or report issues. When entering food by scanning the barcode, one product shows the wrong numbers on the nutrition label provided by Fat Secret, but on their website, it has the correct label—the app is up to date so idk why the the label is incorrect. There's no way to correct it in the app or report the issue either.
I have updated my rating after the meal tracking fix. This app works great. It's not perfect, but I consistently use it to track exercise and food. I do wish they added more courses for those of us who eat multiple meals a day or let us set that part of the tracking up based on meal frequency. I also wish it would let you pre plan your meals, let' say , 3- 5 days ahead for calorie and cab cycling. Lastly, it would be cool if it would track your workouts for hypertrophy and strength training.
what have they done?? this app used to be very accurate. now it misses tons of data on S24 Ultra and they completely removed the ability to manually add workouts?? I spent 45min on Google and YouTube. the options just arent there anymore. sorta defeats the purpose of having a watch Ultra, a top tier phone, and the fact I purchased a specific scale and blood pressure monitor all to sync with an app that doesn't work.
Sleep tracking data? The app used to show REM, light, & deep sleep. But that data is now gone. This was the main reason for using the app. I had been looking to buy the Samsung ring for a more accurate reading over the watch, but with this change, I'll be looking at different rings and ditching my watch while sleeping.
Something is severely wrong with this app's sleep detection. Shortly after the last update, the sleep data accuracy suddenly went drastically downhill. It used to be pretty accurate, but the last several nights, the app thinks I'm awake for 3 plus hours at night, but I know for a fact I was sleeping. I used to get sleep scores of 80 to 90, but the last few nights, my sleep score has been going down to 20 - 50s. This morning it says my sleep ended at 5:30 am when I actually woke up at 8:30. Why?
One feature that is missing and very much needed is the ability to customize goals based on the day of the week. So on workout days, have the goal be higher, but on rest days have it be lower, and have this predefined data also used when calculating the energy score. My gym days are intense, and always the same days each week, but the app is always either telling me I over did it or that I'm not moving enough, not adapting to very obvious paterns.
My ring is connected, and I can see that it is functioning properly, as indicated by the green and red lights when I wake up. However, my data is no longer being recorded in the SH app. I have reset both the ring and the app, but nothing has changed. When the data was syncing correctly, the app worked amazingly well.
if I would have rated this week ago it would have been five stars... I've been using this app for several years now... I learned today that when they push out updates they don't tell you everything that they changed. If you actually use this to track your fitness goals and they completely changed the calorie burn calculation, it will screw your tracking up completely. As long as you don't rely on it for that, I would say everything else is stellar.
wildly inaccurate readings on sleep, pulse, stress, exercise, basically everything it was made to do. for some reason over the last couple of months, this app has really plummeted in its reliability. it is straight up incorrect. I have other apps that I also track to verify how accurate Samsung health is and it is just way off. this is long overdue for an update. I'm thinking about deleting it all together
