Restore heath data after update

I updated to the new version of the Samsung health app and tried the new layout. I didn't Iike it, so I synced my health data tk the cloud, and deleted and reinstalled the app hoping to get the old version andahout back. Unfortunately that didn't work. What's worse is now, Ive lost all of mh health data and I can't fix a restore data in the settings if the new version. Anybody experiencing the same or able to restore their previously synced data?

New Samsung Health makes Galaxy 7 useless

Since the update, my galaxy 7 seems useless, and I need to get the 8 or higher to see all the values.

That's frustrating because I have now an app with some data.

Also the UX is so bad, by do I need to tap on any of the indicators instead of seeing the data in the widget?

Since the update, the app is wildly inaccurate

Since the update the calories are wildly inaccurate. I started my app to track a hike I went on. (I've done this hike before). It took me 2 hours and 46 minutes to hike 3.31 miles (I'm slow and fat but I'm doing it) at 89 degrees Fahrenheit. Previously to the update it would tell me I burned 1,900 on this hike due to the heat, steepness and my pace. Today it said I only burned 549 calories, which is wildly low. The even crazier thing is that it I put the data in (see picture 2), it shows that I burned 2,800 calories.

Anyone else see something crazy like this?

C'est totalement faux!

J’ai respecté scrupuleusement les instructions, debout, bras écartés, ne pas toucher les mains entre elles, à jeun le matin. Et le résultat est totalement faux ! Quand j’ai eu la montre y a 1 ans c'était plus fiable.. là c'est n’importe quoi ! Je ne suis pas du tout musclé... des conseil ?

I dont want to be a landlord anymore and I feel stuck

bought a duplex back in 2020 when everyone was saying real estate is the best investment. maybe it is but I hate every minute of it. I live in one unit and rent out the other but my tenant is a nightmare. late on rent every month, complains about everything, pretty sure theyre damaging the place slowly.

I work 50 hours a week and I dont have the energy to deal with this anymore. I just want to sell the whole thing and move into a small apartment where nobody calls me because the dishwasher is making a weird noise.

the problem is the place needs work. not crazy stuff but enough that selling to a normal buyer would mean fixing it first. new paint, new carpets in the rental unit, the roof is getting old. I dont have the cash or the time.

a coworker told me about Ips Cash when I was complaining. said they buy as-is no repairs needed. I looked at their site quick but havent reached out. I'm scared of getting lowballed but also scared of being stuck with this property for another year.

has anyone here sold a rental property that needed work? how did it go? I just want to be free of this thing."

Is Using Health Tracking Apps Compatible With Minimalism?

​

I’ve been trying to simplify my life for the last year - decluttered a ton, cut my wardrobe in half, deleted most social apps, etc. What kicked this post off was a chat with a coworker yesterday who showed me their Apple Watch stats for literally everything, including “energy” during the day.

Now I’m torn. Part of me likes the idea of tracking sleep, stress, HRV, all that, to see what’s actually draining me. I sometimes crash hard around 3 pm and just power through with coffee and I’m starting to feel like that’s not sustainable. But another part of me feels like adding more graphs and numbers is just digital clutter. Maybe I’m looking at this the wrong way.

While googling around I saw stuff like ENSTA mentioned alongside other health/energy trackers, and it made me wonder: is this kind of tracking compatible with a minimalist approach or is it just another form of obsessive data hoarding?

How do you all handle this? Do you track health/energy at all, and if yes, what’s your minimalist way of doing it? Or do you consider all these apps just noise?

This is for people who track their sleep..

I've tried basically every wearable and health app out there, and they all have the same problem: they just give you numbers. More scores, more charts, more stuff to stare at, and none of it ever tells you what to actually do.

Like cool, I had a bad night, here's a sleep score of 38. Now go figure out your day, good luck. I don't need a number to confirm I slept bad. I already know. I can feel it the second I wake up, zero energy, zero drive to do anything. The number just confirms what I'm already feeling and then leaves me hanging.

That gap annoyed me so much I ended up building the thing myself. It's called RizeAI. The whole idea is the opposite of another score, it takes your actual sleep and recovery data and just tells you what to do with your day. Not a number. A plan.

It pulls your real metrics, sleep, recovery, HRV, resting heart rate, all of it, and builds your day around them. When to have your first coffee and when to hold off. When you're gonna crash and what to do before it hits. Whether to push at the gym or take it easy. When to hydrate. It'll even tell you which supplements actually make sense for you that day, when to take them, and why, instead of the generic "just take magnesium bro" everyone repeats. Low recovery day, it adjusts the whole thing. Slept great, it builds on that instead.

And honestly the part I'm most proud of: it's actually tailored to you. No two people get the same plan, because no two people have the same data. It reads your numbers and builds a protocol for you specifically, then gets sharper the more you use it. The longer you're on it, the more it learns your patterns.

The whole thing is just: stop tracking, start fixing. Your wearable already told you the bad night happened. This is the part that comes after, the part that turns a red recovery day into a day you can still get something out of. That was the gap I kept running into, and now it's literally the thing I open every morning.

Anyway, genuinely curious what people here think is still missing in this space, because I'm building in it every day.

I want more control

I want to be able to remove this area. I find it useless. All it does it take up space that could better served by delivering helpful information.

If I can't get rid of this, and since downgrading the Health app back to the useful 6.x version requires more configuration that I want to fuss with right now, what's a good Android alternative ecosystem to Samsung now that they're getting less user friendly?

This new update is good and bad

So, this is what I get when I try to see why my Galaxy Watch Ultra can't track somethings like vitals for instance. Not to mention not pulling my data to GymRats even though it says it's connected to it on Samsung Health.

Is it because I use a non Samsung phone?

Can't use my heart rate sensor on my phone after the new update.

I have a samsung s10 with a build in heart rate sensor, and after the new update i can no longer use it. I do have a watch, but it's the galaxy smart watch 6 so it still won't be compatable with the new changes in the app.

I don't understand WHY they would render the sensor on my phone absolutely useless. what about people who can't afford being the latest gadgets? i sure as hell can't. I had to buy my phone second hand, and the watch i got as a gift 1 year ago.

I have an existing heart problem, so I need to keep track of my heartrate. why the fuck would they do this to their customers? i will NEVER buy another samsung product after this. I am so insanely disappointed in them.

sure my phone is old, and I could see them doing the update so you would have to buy a watch of the later models, but THIS??? just make it so that the new update isn't compatable with this old of a phone instead of completely fucking us over. THEY were the ones who put the sensor on the phone to begin with??

it's the same type of shitty as if they did this to your watches too, it would render them absolutely useless even though they have a built in sensor. it's obnoxiously greedy of them to do this.

NEVER buying a samsung product again.

GFY samsung.

I dislike the new Samsung Health

I have to admit the new customization options and new features are nice, but these colours are just not it. They should have kept the previous colors and also this new pastel colour are not it especially in the daily activity overview. Also the widgets contents are not centered and I am even having problems with syncing to my Samsung Account. I also miss my water cup icon for water intake. 😣🙁

Colours on food bars?

I've got a bunch of questions about the food log and I can't seem to understand this... I'm going crazy so I really hope one of you can help me! I'm fairly new to Samsung Health and the new update.. I've tried googling but can't find any answers.

Firstly, when I open the overview of how many calories I've eaten the last week I don't understand why one bar is green and why the other one is blue? Are there any more colour? What do they mean and which colour should I aim for?

Secondly, when I look at the calories I've eaten during a specific day there are also different colour and grey patters on the horizontal bars. What does green, blue, stripes and plain gray mean?? I also thought the bull's eye was the calories eaten in total, but it's different? I'm so confused!

Pleeease help :')

Is there a way to get rid of the Steps card?

It feels redundant to have Steps, if I already have Daily Activity showing the full details, yet there is no - icon to remove it. Only the option to enlarge it

i think i found a gap in the market

For most of my life I tried to be someone else. I'd find someone I admired, decide they were better than me, and copy them. That mindset pushed me into a business I never enjoyed and only started because I looked up to one specific guy. It failed. I felt completely lost.

Around that time I was obsessively tracking my sleep with a Whoop, trying to optimize it. I kept getting good recovery scores. And I was still exhausted, yawning through entire afternoons, dead by 2pm. That's when it clicked: the score doesn't do anything. It just confirms you slept well or badly. Cool. Now what? Knowing isn't fixing.

So I built the thing I actually wanted. It takes the data your wearable already collects sleep, recovery, heart rate, and turns it into a daily protocol instead of another number. It tells you what supplements to take based on your metrics, predicts your most productive hours and gives you the exact time window when you should do deep focus tasks and light focus tasks, it tells you how much caffeine you have in your system left based on your first coffee taken and notifies you when you should take the next caffeinated drink for maximum productivity, it even tells you when to nap so your energy lasts the whole day instead of crashing and much more...

It's on the App Store as RizeAI https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rizeai-maximize-your-energy/id6762402079. i built by myself, it's early stage right now, and I want honest feedback, what's confusing, what's missing, what you'd never use. Tear it apart.

Samsung Health Web App – We need this!

I love using Samsung Health on my phone, but I've been wishing for a proper desktop dashboard to see all my data on a bigger screen. I mocked up what a web app version could look like, based on the current mobile UI.

Imagine having all your "Energy Score," "Daily Activity," and detailed reports laid out on a full browser window. It would be way cooler.

Samsung, please make this happen! What do you all think? Would you use a web version?

App not syncing

Has anyone else come up with not being able to sync your data to Samsung Cloud? After checking in Settings I try to manually sync but I'm stuck at a black loading screen... I'm new here so idk if this has already been addressed.
