Ratings and reviews

It used to be more accurate than it is now. The sleep tracker, in particular, had features that are no longer available, where you would take a closer look at times and sleep cycles. It also used to be very accurate, but it will now completely miss entire several hour chunks of sleep.

This app makes my watch irrelevant and unusable. Is there no other option? It doesn't allow you to correct its errors and it's wrong 96% of the time; wrong sleep times. Wrong exercise sensing. Even wrong heart rate at times. You'd think spending hundreds on a smart watch in 2024, you'd have basic capabilities that their competitors are offering at much cheaper prices. Samsung, are you going to fix this? You have bad reviews on these same issues going back years. Should I return my watch?

For the most part, I really like this app. I love the nutritional breakdown of everything when you keep a food log. I'd REALLY appreciate if you'd also include the B6 & B12 content in the daily log, as these are somewhat important to track. I'd also like the ability to scan the nutritional facts on a food item instead of entering it manually, that would really simplify things, the data entry can take so long. I've really come to use this app a lot since trying to eat healthier. I love it.
