How to turn off Samsung Health alert messages?

[Casey Cheung]

I go to Galaxy Wearable app, open Samsung Health app, click on menu to open Settings, open Notifications, Show notifications is turned off. So why am I constantly getting messages on my screen congratulating me for number of steps walked, doing a great job walking, etc, etc. I find this highly annoying. How do I turn off these pat on the back alerts popping up all the time?

By the way, I'm referring to the Galaxy Wearable app on my Samsung S9 phone.

Agree, highly annoying. I turned mine off ages ago.

On the watch: Open S Health, scroll to and select Settings. Scroll to and select Workout Detection. Turn 'Alerts' off!

Wow, dang! That was well hidden deep in layers of menus to get there! Thank you much!! Fingers crossed! I'm tired of these useless messages!

Yeah, you get used to the menus after a while, not always the most intuitive!
There are some other pop ups which might annoy you such as 'wear the watch more tightly' etc. For those when they pop up, scroll down with the bezel and you'll see the option to disable them permanently.

Hope you are enjoying your new watch otherwise

Yes, thank you! I think I also noticed some "tips" that would pop up. How do I disable those tip alert popups?

Try on the watch: Settings/Account/Customisation Service
Turn this off so it says 'paused'.
