So just read about the live update today for new Galaxy Watch 3... no word about when we'll get it. Thoughts?

Samsung screwed owners of the options they promised which is the reason I returned my watch within the return period.

Yup. I traded mine in for the watch3. None of the promised health monitors happened when they said. I love the watch3.

Samsung did say at the launch event that these features won't be long like last year. Supposedly they are already approved for the states and launched in South Korea

I find the ecg app but not the vo2 app.

Funny, ECG is not listed in What's new. VO2max can be checked during exercise according to the description. For ECG to work you have to download Samsung Health Monitor app.

Yes received the update in AZ today for VZ LTE version.
Look forward to see how the messaging response on the fly shows up.
Also:
Anyone use the Vo2Max aspect in exercise yet? How did you find it?
And are we going to see a BP module like So.Korea or is this all up to US FDA?
Thanks ✌

Got the update last night, was a big one. Still couldn't see Samsung Health Monitor to download. Gave up and went to bed, then this morning the widget suddenly popped up in the widget section of the wearable app where it could be added to my watch. Once it was added through the wearable app, the watch had a link to download the monitor app, which then appeared on my phone. First ECG reading was successful! However the phone shows the Blood Oxygen (what we in EMS call SPO2 or Pulse Ox) widget available to add to my watch, but I have added it several times and it never saves.

I'm really interested in the SpO2 as well. And I don't see its widget on the wearable app to even add!
What does it look like?
Oh BTW, maybe you've reached the 15 widget limit so delete one and maybe it'll show up! Good Luck

It says I'm only using 10 out of 15 widgets, so I'm not sure what's up. I add it, hit the save button, and then it's right back where it started lol.

When I try and add the widget directly from my watch, it's not even an option listed.

I'll try and attach a photo of my screen in the widget section of the wearable app.

 

[Hghlndr]

Wow... and there you have it! And I don't... ha.
As always with this phone tech I'll just watch... (NPI) ✌

I don't have it either. ECG is there, Samsung Health Monitor installed.

 

[SeanD_Colorado]

I have ECG, but not V02. Is V02 only available on GW3 and not Active Watch 2?

 

[tmccormick87]

I just got another watch update today. Now the SPO2 widget is gone entirely, whereas I had it previously, but it would never save to my watch. Guess they just aren't ready to have us have it lol.

 

[malachijd]

So I have it on my phone but not my watch as well and when I try to add it to my watch it acts like it will work but once I hit save it doesn't add it. Also I still haven't been able to do a ECG. It never works for me and says I need to moisturizer my skin and try again. And yes I've tried that and still nothing

Got a small update tonight, 16mb, but no VO2Max
