How To Get My Galaxy S8 To Count Floors

I wish that was the case for us galaxy watch users but at least you can try what i did and see if it registers floors for you.

How to get my galaxy s8 to count floors.

I purchased this to replace my fitbit blaze and old asus zw2 which is dying and wanted 1 device to cover both of their functionality. I have a galaxy watch 42mm with a manufacture date of 12 31 2018. Tablets and some mobile devices may not be supported. 0ne issue is its not counting correct number of floors i just tried walking stairs by holding my hand low at the bottom then rising my hand high at the top then walked down in the same way but it still did not count.

Connect two bluetooth devices to the galaxy s8 or s8 to play audio through the two devices simultaneously. Available only for certain accessories made by samsung. It has the latest update to the os. The two connected devices may exhibit a slight difference in sound output.

I have a 2 story house and it registered 1 floor all day. Still learning how to use all the functionality. I just got the galaxy watch yesterday black friday and immediately noticed the floor count is useless. Tap the step tracker tap more options the three vertical dots and then tap view your step count data.

First of all on my watch floors are counted inaccurately when using some watch faces but not others. Supported galaxy and non galaxy devices require android 6 0 marshmallow or later. So maybe the galaxy watch wants a walking start so to say before registering a floor. For those who use a samsung galaxy s8 or galaxy s8 plus the instructions are more than simple.

Using the connected phone open the galaxy wearable app and then swipe to and tap samsung health. Now both your watch and phone will be synced and their total will appear in samsung health. Some functions may not be available based on regions service providers devices. Just got my gear fit2 pro last week.

Bluetooth connection is stable even with ambient radio frequency interferences. I hope i made sense. Supported devices also require a minimum of 1 5gb of storage. Choose all steps as your step count source.

Some watch faces count the floors occasionally but not all the time.
