  2. S health does not differentiate calories and kilocalories. Example 1 green papaya salad =203 calories = 0.2 kcal. There is no option to type 0.2

  4. Has S Health updated their app as I’ve been trying to look for it on my note 3. It was there this morning as it was calculating my steps and when I went back to check the progress after 6pm it was gone. Can anyone help?

  5. I have setup my S health with a password. Unfortunately, i forgot my password and couldn’t open it any more. How can I retrieve or reset it?

  7. The podometer has the same figures that one week ago: 2,999,698 steps (1,373.3 miles). There are still 35,928,879 users and my ranking position is 58622°. In the people of my age (60-69 years) there are 902,078 users and my position is 2405°. However, in the past week I walked another 114,309 steps since Monday, August 10 to today, August 17 at 21:17 hs central time. Why it is not updated???

  8. I try to update S Health past 3.5 but I am told my phone is incompatible. I’m running a Note 3 with Android 5.0.

    Is there a way to update to 4.5?

    Reply

  9. Update sucks. Why do the app devs remove parts of the app that work well like weight loss and other types of exercise like dancing and swimming? So they can still it as an add on? They shouldn’t fix something that doesn’t need fixing.

  11. my steps stopped counting so I thought if I uninstalled and then reinstall it would work on my NOTE 3. Now it tells me the app is not compatible with my device how can I get the app back on my phone?

  12. Hello, I’ve been using S Health for quite sometime and loved it much. I wanted to know the Pedometer and Exercise calories counted is it the Net or Gross calories burned. Is the calories recorded in the Pedometer and Exercise accurate according to our weight.

  13. I just started using the app. and everytime i go in to the app i have to login. is there a way to bypass this.

  14. Hi, S Health won’t even open anymore. Checked app manager there is an app called S Sensor that is disabled. I can’t get it to remain enabled therefore my guess it operates the bridge between the watch app and the phone. Rebooted it, removed battery nothing seems to work.

  15. So disappointed that I can no longer manually enter my workout on the eliptical machine. Can seem to get the cycling exercise tracker working properly either.

  18. Ok, I don’t know if this will work for everyone, but my problem is already fixed. I was going through my upgrades in google play store, and saw this things called ANT radio service, and ANT + plug is service, I never knew what those stuff are for, but I read it is a background sort of advanced allien bluetooth thingy, and that it helps apps like the s health and similars work, it also helps your cellphone connect with your gadgets such as the galaxy gear and similars. Anyway, I upgraded it and then tried with the galaxy apps and tried AGAIN with the s health (with little hope) and it worked!!! I don’t know if it has something to do, but, give it a shot. ☺

  19. My S Health has not been working since yesterday 15 February, 2015. I have been utilising this app for a fairly long time. Until it promted me to update the S Health latest version on last Saturday dtd 14 February, 2015. Since I have updated the S Health last Saturday, it did not function as a pedometer and exercise tracker any more.Can you advice me how to rectify this matter ASAP.

  24. Error

    Product does not exist in this store. (4002)

    i am trying to sync my watch data to the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and all i get is the above error code.

    Specifically my “walking mate” pedometer tracking.

    This needs to be fixed very annoying that my gadgets stopped working properly. Like the rest of the Samsung customers I did pay a good amount to have it not work they way it’s supposed to.

  26. Using s health on note 3 brilliant. Updated now nothing. Main screen is locked. The arrow wheel spins to update info from gear 2. Again nothing happens. Have reset everything. This app is crap, frustrating. Forcing me to another app. Just like music hub. I lost all of my paid for music. Maybe I should sue.

    Reply

  27. Anyone else getting “Unlock S Health” notifications constantly? It’s getting to the point I’m going to remove the application completely. I get at least 6 per day. I’ve even turned off notifications on the S Health app.

    Reply

  28. I put the update through on my Note 3. And Now I get an error message that says “Health Service app needs to be updated. Tap okay to proceed or cancel to close the application.” I push okay, it attempts to take me to a new screen (Im assuming Samsung app store) but I then get a new error that says: “Product does not exist in this store (4002).” I loved using this! What happened and how do I fix it?!?

  31. good post – useful info – thanks. Two questions:
    1) Can I have multiple profiles (people in my family, etc.)? It seems you can only have 1 person at a time, and if I let someone else use the heart monitor the info will be tracked under my name which will mess up my stats
    2) Can you access S Health anywhere on the web? It’d be nice to see this stuff in the cloud and play with it there as well as on my phone.

    Cheers!

  32. This update has ruined my evening. I’m going to switch back to mapmyrun. Why do companies keep changing things that work perfectly fine???

  36. I love using “Walking Mate” and have been doing so for 1 month. Then one morning I wake up and the walking counter is not working or stuck and it is not counting any of my activity. What could cause this? Could it be from dropping the phone, or do I have a “setting” I need to adjust? Looking for help and thank you.

  40. when in weight I can’t see an andriod menu button on the left on arrow to move from day to day. The main menu , weight log and linked scales (top right) then bottom left graphical representation. Nothing about resetting goals. Or adjusting the calories intake as i would like to set that myself. Any thoughts
