The Verdict

The native companion app for Samsung Galaxy Watch and Ring users. HRV tracking is automatic but less emphasized than in dedicated HRV apps. Good for Samsung ecosystem users who want integrated health tracking.

  • Body composition (select devices)
  • Integration with Samsung ecosystem

Pros

  • Free with Samsung devices
  • Automatic 24/7 tracking

Cons

  • HRV data less prominent than competitors

Automatic HRV Collection

Samsung Health automatically collects HRV data during sleep and periodic spot-checks throughout the day. The stress measurement feature uses HRV as its primary signal.

Samsung Ecosystem Integration

The app works seamlessly with Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Ring, and Samsung phones. Health data syncs automatically, and the unified dashboard shows HRV alongside sleep, activity, and other metrics.
