2024-12-13 | Mike T | [EDIT 12/12/2024 - Play Services is still allowing apps to update without users' knowledge or consent] 07/22/2024 - I've never used this app. I'm wondering how it updated despite my device being set to never allow automatic updates. | |
2024-10-08 | Eric Potter | I hate it! Don't use it because of extreme battery usage and privacy. It gives itself permissions after I deny them. Can't be uninstalled from my watch. Hate it, hate it. Get out of my business Samsung!!! | |
2024-10-08 | Aury | BLOATWARE, might as well be spyware or even malware!!! My health issues are none of Big Tech's business. (And neither are my financial details, personal photos, website history, etc.) This is the LAST Android phone ever for me. | |
2024-10-06 | nu no | With updates you RUINED a good application and made it UNUSEFULL! Any attempt to track a workout with GPS, your application count imaginary paths with enormous kilometers and abnormal speeds for any related workout. You can see this data, but you JUST DON'T CARE! Cheap policy to push owners to buy a new watch. Shame on you! | |
2024-09-21 | Ian Hobbs | It doesn't even show I only found out about it when I updated my phone apps and found it there so uninstalled as I don't want apps I never asked for or am likely to use. They are an INTRUSION. | |
2024-09-06 | Joe Sebo | Get this garbage app off of my Galaxy watch ultra. Runs in the background consuming battery. Can't be closed, disabled or uninstalled. It does nothing. I don't need it, don't want it. Samsung Health does what I need. | |
2024-02-11 | Kristin Abreu | Great way to track health related items, all organized in one place. They send reminders about important health related items that you don't want to forget (if you have the notifications turned on for the app) and you can easily download all data to print or email to your health care provider, or simply to keep for your records. You receive "attaboys" for achievements reached, such as workouts and steps in a day, and they have tons of work out routines to do at home in your leisure. | |
2023-09-03 | Kye Nic | App is pretty unreliable. It thinks I'm climbing stairs when I'm not. I thinks I'm riding a bike when pushing a shopping cart. The meal/calorie tracking is completely useless. Samsung needs to try to keep up with other tech companies and step up their product. | |
2022-12-16 | De Duke | The app is of no use to me, Samsung has installed a lot of suspicious apps on all of my phones and made it where I cannot even disable, delete or get into the apps because most of the buttons to access are grayed out. I would never use a Sumsung phone again, I would prefer use an old fashioned flip phone that are too old to get any apps installed. I think Apple might win over lots of Samsung customers. Visiting small fix it shops that might sell older flip phones just to avoid Samsung. | |
2022-11-05 | Satiety Spirit | This is spyware that you can't uninstall. Digital Health is another one. They both keep track of EVERY WEBSITE that you visit, EVERY PHOTO on your phone and the pictures and videos that you take of yourself and others, ALL of your apps, ALL of the credit & debit cards that you use to purchase things, etc... I mean EVERYTHING ! Had I known of this ahead of time, I would have never purchased this phone. I spent over $ 1,400 for this phone. What a mistake, and a costly mistake at that !!! |
