In a major move, Samsung India made Health Monitor Blood Pressure and ECG Tracking features available in India on the Galaxy Watch 6. Surprisingly, the same features are also live for the Galaxy Watch 5 and Galaxy Watch 4 Series too. After bringing support for Samsung Pay early this year in the country, the BP monitoring feature was the last that was absent in the Indian market on the Galaxy Watches.

Samsung Galaxy Watch users can now conveniently monitor their blood pressure and track their ECG using the Samsung Health Monitor App. The app is available on the Galaxy Store, and users can follow on-screen instructions to monitor their blood pressure. The Samsung Health Monitor App received clearance and certification from India’s Central Drugs Standard Control Organization.

The feature is only compatible with the Galaxy smartphone; otherwise, you may not get these features. However, you also require a separate blood pressure measuring machine to calibrate the Samsung Galaxy Watch every month.

Steps to Measure Blood Pressure Using Galaxy Watch

Below are easy steps to check your blood pressure using the in-built photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor, which can record systolic and diastolic pressure, as well as pulse rate, and record it in the Samsung Health Monitor app.

Prerequisites:

• Download the Samsung Health Monitor App on your Galaxy Watch and Galaxy smartphone
• Calibrate the Galaxy Watch using a blood pressure machine and on-screen instructions.

Steps:

1. After downloading the app and calibrating, wear the Galaxy Watch on the same wrist as calibrated using a strap.
2. Open the Samsung Health Monitor App on the Galaxy Watch.
3. Tap on blood pressure, and then follow on-screen instructions to start blood pressure measurements.
4. After 30 seconds, the user can see their blood pressure on the watch or smartphone itself.

A similar process is followed to measure the ECG on the Galaxy Watch. The user just needs to select ECG on the Samsung Health Monitor App. It detects the electrical signals produced by the heart with each beat and records them on a graph. The app lets you record, save, and share ECG data in a PDF format.

Beyond design, the Galaxy Watch 6, Watch 5 and Watch 4 series introduce personalized health guidance, providing users with valuable insights into their well-being. Purposeful design upgrades enhance the overall user experience, and the series promises an improved mobile experience for a more informed and healthier lifestyle.
