Samsung Health 4+

I really like this app, but some of its bugs make it unusable

I just wanna say I do not hate this app whatsoever I love this app very much and I’ve been using it for a couple of months now. I use it primarily to track my eating habits and to track my cycling and mountain biking progress. I normally go on biking trips for up to two hours and track from start to finish. recently when I finish my trip and I look back on my progress the app crashes and all of my progress is gone. this is extremely disappointing. i’ve also recently encountered a glitch where when I add my food The nutrition score stays at zero and does not rise. and that’s not because I eat non-nutritious food, my eating habits havent changed much and it used to actually show a score a couple of months back. I would totally give you guys a five star review with these two issues can be addressed and fixed. this app is incredible and it is help me lose weight in the past but these recent issues make this app unusable.

Used for years

Very few issues that I’ve ever had with this app. The biggest reason I gave a 4 star rating is the transfer of info from one device to another. I’ve had this app for a long time, over the lifespan of many telephones and as things happen on one of those times my telephone number had to change. My Samsung account to reboot my old info requires a two step verification and it is totally like Samsung cannot believe I have a new telephone number so they send the cold to the old number no matter how many different ways I go about changing it. So I have restarted using the app from scratch 3 or 4 times now. Other than that, the app keeps pretty good track of your workouts, I have noticed some features it seems to baseline on. I use an elliptical trainer on days that I can’t go outside and run. I can have a burn out session on my machine for 30 minutes. My elliptical may say I’ve covered 2100 steps in 30 minutes and burned 550 calories and the tracker on the app alway seems to say, 30 minutes on and elliptical is 311 calories…every workout. I love the kayak feature but I’m just starting to use it. I paddled around for an hour last night and it said I burned 33 calories, 🫤 c’mon man! I burned 33 calories unloading the boat!
With that said…I absolutely love the food tracker and the food score, I love the walk/run tracker. I have had apps that I have paid for that is no where near as well made as this app, everything in one place. It is awesome

Missing the running coach metrics

I have loved the Samsung Health app on my Samsung phone paired to my Samsung smartwatch. Recently I switched to an iPhone but kept my Samsung watch and still use the Samsung Health app for my workouts. A few questions/issues I have come across since I switched phones though. 1) After I record a run on my watch, there is no longer a way I can view my running metrics like symmetry, stiffness, air time, etc. Is that a function that is not available though the iOS version of Samsung Health? 2) On a bike ride with my Samsung phone and watch, I used to get the audio coach to my Bluetooth headphones (non Samsung or Apple) every mile. The coach still comes across my watch speaker but no longer through my headphones. Do I have a wrong setting or is that not supported? The headphones will receive music and phone calls like they did with the all Samsung setup. 3) Lastly, on my Samsung device I was able to pair MyFitnessPal (MFP) app to the Samsung Health app. It would allow me to record my weight in MFP and record workouts on Samsung Health. Then all of my steps and workouts would show up in MFP from my Samsung Health activities. Now I can’t seem to figure out a way for the two apps to talk on my Apple device. Is that feature unavailable? Thanks for your time and thanks for making an overall great app.
