A decent app most of the time. I would expect it to be much cleaner and smoother coming from a tech giant like Samsung. A5 least it gets the job done most of the time. However, my biggest problem is that when it updates, I get a notification access error. When I go in to fix it, then ALL my notifications go away for other apps. This is the fourth time this year! I have to manually restart my phone from scratch in order to get everything to work again.

Like many others have said, the May 2019 update completely broke every "smart" feature of the watch. Completely useless. Now it's no more than a basic Fitbit, except that you have to charge it twice a day... That said, the Galaxy watch/gear apps have always been TERRIBLE. Awful, basically useless. Likewise the software written for the watches has also always been subpar at best. Much like the Galaxy phones, amazing hardware crippled by bloated and non-functional software.

I've worn this watch since I purchased it 2 years ago. It's my daily motivation to get more steps. I love the samsung health app. Every month has a new challenge to get 200000 steps. I went from barely getting it, to killing it , almost 400000 plus a month. It keeps up with my weight, sleep, calories. I can text, call, listen to music. I've held my phone less this year, because I don't miss a call or text if I put it down. I've had zero issues with this watch and I'm sure it's a older version.
