Samsung has never been particularly well known for playing nicely with devices that don’t start with the name “Samsung”, so this year has been a real surprise for all Android fans. After announcing that their new smartwatch, the Samsung Gear S2, would be compatible with all devices with Android 4.4+ and 1.5GB RAM, the Korean manufacturer has just opened up its S Health fitness app for all devices with Android 4.4+ also. It’s an interesting move, and likely comes on the tail of disappointing sales for its flagship devices – no doubt the idea is to try and get people to jump on the Samsung bandwagon somehow which will hopefully get them to consider a Samsung device when they upgrade.
If you’re wondering how good the S Health app is, it’s got all your fitness tracking tools which record steps, your intake of calories and even how much sunlight you’ve gotten. Some of the more useful features that other fitness apps lack are graphs that plot out your recent performance and tips that help you keep progressing towards a better lifestyle. And, it’s free – so if your fitness app isn’t quite what you want it to be, perhaps try S Health; Play Store link is below:
