### 4/5 — Not realistic

*2026-07-29*

How possible this

If you mean 1 lakh (100,000) steps in one day, the distance depends on your stride length.

On average:

* 1 step ≈ 0.75 to 0.80 metres
* 100,000 steps ≈ 75–80 km

A quick estimate:

* 100,000 × 0.75 m = 75,000 m = 75 km
* 100,000 × 0.80 m = 80,000 m = 80 km

So, 1 lakh steps is approximately 75–80 kilometres for most adults.

but for most people it is extremely difficult and not practical to do every day in 1L steps!!!!!
If 1L steps on everyday means 

* 100,000 steps ≈ 75–80 km of walking.
* At a normal walking speed of 5 km/h, it would take about 15–16 hours of continuous walking (not including breaks).

My opinion is

For general health, 7,000–10,000 steps per day is a realistic and beneficial target for many adults, though the ideal goal depends on your age, fitness level, and health.

So it’s fully scam recorded steps and achievements 

So plz tell me anyone is it correct challenge????

### 3/5 — Review of Step Count Accuracy in Samsung Health App

*2026-07-21, version 1.15.3*

Overall, Samsung Health is a very good app with many useful features. However, I have concerns about the accuracy of the step count rankings. Some users appear to record over 120,000 steps in a single day on a regular basis, which seems highly unrealistic.

These figures raise questions about the accuracy and fairness of the rankings. They can also be discouraging for people who are genuinely trying to stay active and improve their fitness, as it becomes difficult to compete with what appear to be inaccurate or inflated step counts.

I would encourage Samsung to review how steps are tracked and validated to ensure the leaderboard reflects genuine activity. This would help maintain user trust and provide fair motivation for everyone using the app.

### 4/5 — Help plz

*2026-07-11, version 1.15.3*

can samsung gear fit 2 run samsung health accessories  iphone 17

### 2/5 — only some of the features work

*2026-06-07, version 1.15.3*

If the app doesn’t transfer over data of tracked workouts only steps what good is that? now i have to completely rely on the watch itself to find details about my workouts instead of this app that’s syncing the steps, my heart rate, but won’t sync tracked workouts? a bummer almost makes this app unusable

### 2/5 — Nice app missing Galaxy 8

*2026-05-23, version 1.15.3*

Love this app, nice layout but missing the Galaxy 8 watch, please add the model. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Best app I’ve used only thing missing is food tracker

*2026-04-22, version 1.15.3*

Calories intake and food pictures to track a better healthy diet.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2026-04-16, version 1.15.2*

I know this is for Samsung but I have used it for soo long that when my phone broke n my son gave me his iPhone I thought getting it on there it would still be the same n absolutely not..I do not have a full screen I can’t see all my goals n won’t let me scroll over I don’t see all the options when adding meals as it don’t let me scroll down I have to put evening snacks as morning snacks n change the time to evening even tho it is labeled morning snacks I want to continue to love it but I can’t anymore as I am to poor to own a Samsung now n have a hand me down iPhone

### 5/5 — Full App

*2026-04-01, version 1.15.2*

This is a lovely app. However I notice that not all the available benefits are available on iOS as  on the android version 
.

### 2/5 — Can’t view history

*2026-03-24, version 1.15.2*

I moved from a Galaxy to an iPhone and thought I could use this to view my historical data since I no longer have my old phone. There’s no way to see my data from my 5 years using this app on my Samsung phone, so it’s pretty useless

### 4/5 — Steps

*2026-03-23, version 1.15.2*

If you don’t check your steps everyday it stops counting

### 5/5 — Tracking buddy

*2026-03-23, version 1.15.2*

The only reason I can stay on track! I need to see metrics to drive results and this is perfect. It’s like having numbers to compare week to week for success and adjustments. And the group step competitions feed my type A personality!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-03-11, version 1.15.2*

Very useful information helps me understand exactly what my heath is doing.

### 5/5 — Best health app handsdown

*2026-03-08, version 1.15.2*

I cannot understate how good this app is. I have used it for years, and I have tried other apps for health tracking which don’t measure up. The simplicity of the interface and vast food database with free macro tracking is second to none. Please never change.

### 1/5 — App is trash

*2026-08-06, version 1.15.3*

"The Together friend sync feature is completely broken for iOS users trying to connect with Android users. My friend is on a Galaxy S25 and sees me on his list, but my iPhone app shows 0 friends. We have tried QR codes, email IDs, phone number searches, direct text links, challenge invites, and making a new Google account. None of these work because your regional servers are completely locked. Please fix the cross-platform cloud sync between iPhone and Android users."

### 1/5 — Does not play nice with iPhone.

*2026-07-12, version 1.15.3*

Makes my watch useless. Returning the watch. I hate it when companies lock down their products. Makes me never want to use a Samsung product again. What a waste of two hours.

### 1/5 — Does not sync

*2026-06-28, version 1.15.3*

App does not accurately sync to watch. Each shows different activities/readings even when auto-synced.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate step and mile tracking

*2026-05-13, version 1.15.3*

Inaccurate step and mile distance tracking when phone screen isn’t open

### 1/5 — What happened

*2026-05-03, version 1.15.3*

This app used to be great. I got back into fitness recently and this app was an immediate download again. I just walked 9k steps per my watch (on top of daily total) and this app did not count a single step. I used this app for years and then stop for a couple months, now it doesn’t work. This sucks.

### 1/5 — I love bees

*2026-03-30, version 1.15.2*

No cuenta mis pasos adecuadamente, yo camino más de los pasos que cuenta.
Siempre me roba mis pasos y miente al decir que camino menos .

### 1/5 — Creating UI on iPhones similar to Android - track sleep scores

*2026-03-12, version 1.15.2*

Could have been more helpful if the UI was same as the one with Android phones, that would allow one to track the sleep scores as well. Moreover, if possible try to upgrade it to higher versions of watch and not just S4. Some of us really like Samsung watches but incompatible issues with the iPhones is a big kill.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iphone

*2026-01-31, version 1.15.2*

Wildly inaccurate. Useless for training. I removed it after two days.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t sync well with iPhone

*2026-01-06, version 1.15.2*

App doesn’t update with all steps sources regularly. App was usually 2k to 3k off from Apple total and the globe challenge was 5 to 6 k off!!

### 1/5 — App não registra kcal perdidas

*2025-12-28, version 1.15.2*

Corri por 40 minutos e o app indica que perdi apenas 10 kcal. Não é confiável

### 5/5 — Me

*2026-08-25, version 1.15.3*

Great channel

### 5/5 — Great and easy to utilize

*2026-08-02, version 1.15.3*

Using this since 2013. Helps me make good nutrition decisions and better health choices.

### 5/5 — Much more than just Samsung

*2026-07-29, version 1.15.3*

This app has been a staple in my fitness life. It’s so good that when I switched from Samsung to Apple I had to bring it with me.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-07-19, version 1.15.3*

I’ve had this app with me since the 2010’s and it’s helped monitor my progress throughout the years. Even when I wasn’t attuned to the app it saved and managed my information to be uniquely me.

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-07-05, version 1.15.3*

Many thanks

### 5/5 — Search Within Favourites

*2026-06-12, version 1.15.3*

This is a great app and I use it everyday! One quality of life feature that I think would be such a helpful thing is if I could search within my favourited foods. I’ve used this app for years now and I have accumulated a large list of favourite foods but it’s hard to find what I want because I have to scroll through a huge list. As a software engineer I know this would not be hard to add and would be such a huge benefit users!

### 5/5 — Great health monitoring

*2026-06-08, version 1.15.3*

I’m very happy to see my health progress. I know well ahead where I have to pay attention to monitor my health being highly diabetic and having arrhythmia.

### 5/5 — Great tracker

*2026-05-30, version 1.15.3*

I’ve had this app for a long time and it’s helped me realize the power of moving and to keep moving no matter what. 💪🏼

### 5/5 — 要望

*2026-05-18*

ランニング中に毎キロメードル完成時に通知してくれたら嬉しいです。

### 5/5 — Able to Monitor

*2026-04-24, version 1.15.3*

This is a brilliant app that helps me monitor my intake of food and calories which then results in good control of my weight. I can also ensure good daily exercise. Sleep monitoring and recording is also a useful tool.
