S Health app updated, working and very cool

skatergirl · Apr 20, 2015

The S Health app update came and went last week, pulled because of bugs, and the new update rolled out for me this morning.

I really like the new features. You can track water and coffee. Hiking and sports has been added to track and there are a number of activities to choose from under sports. More partner apps have been added as well.

I am soooooo happy Samsung decided to finally get to this update. The previous version of the S Health app was pretty lame. This is awesome. Going on a cool trip to Ship Bottom New Jersey this summer and this app will help me achieve my beach ready goals. Woo hoo!

I love T-Mobile and will never quit their service but this waiting is getting annoying.

Happy to hear an S Health update is coming (I'm on T-Mobile, still on S Health v. 3..5.5.0036). I never thought I'd use it but actually find it pretty handy.

For those who've received the update, what version number is it?

Is this a different update from the one everyone has been complaining about?

I like that you can track BP and glucose. Not overly thrilled with the actual design, but I'm still tinkering with it.

I like that you can now turn off the steps tracker. Before the update you could only turn it off by disabling a health.

Edit:nevermind. It's still on. I thought the off button would turn it off on the lockscreen.

Doesn't show up when I search the Play Store. That's why I thought it was just the Samsung store only.

There was an article on Android Central about it yesterday. It's only available to select phones running Android 5.0 or higher

I can't believe TMobile is so far behind with the Lollipop update.
