Samsung Electronics is upgrading an integrated health solution for runners by combining 14 years of Samsung Health data with precision sensors in the Galaxy Watch. The platform goes beyond basic activity logging to cover posture analysis, heart rate tracking and recovery management, offering metrics used by elite marathon runners in an accessible way. The company also runs a Running Coach service that assigns running levels and recommends training programs, alongside daily indicators such as sleep, mental health and nutrition.

Samsung Electronics has begun a phased rollout of blood pressure tracking for Galaxy Watch users in the United States, bringing a feature previously available in places including South Korea. The function works on Galaxy Watch 4 and later models running Wear OS 4.0 or higher and shows systolic and diastolic readings alongside heart rate. Users must calibrate with a separate cuff monitor and recalibrate about every 28 days. Use requires the Samsung Health Monitor app and a Galaxy phone running Android 12 or later.
