Samsung Health Update Enhances Health Records, Medications, And Food Tracking
Samsung has updated its Health app to enhance user experience by offering expanded health management features, making it easier to access health records, manage medications, and track food intake. These new capabilities aim to consolidate fragmented health data into a unified platform for better health monitoring.
A key feature of the update is Health Records, which allows users to securely access medical information from clinics, hospitals, and major health networks. Through a partnership with b.well Connected Health, Samsung Health integrates electronic medical records (EMR) from leading U.S. systems like Cerner and Epic. Users can track vaccinations, prescriptions, and test results, improving communication with healthcare providers.
The Medications tracking feature, first launched in the U.S., is now expanded to South Korea and India. This feature allows users to easily track medications, view potential side effects, and monitor adherence through an intuitive dashboard. In the U.S., a partnership with Elsevier enhances drug safety by offering warnings about interactions and allergies. In Korea and India, regional partnerships ensure localized support for medication safety and reminders.
The app also introduces a barcode scanning feature to simplify food tracking. In partnership with fatsecret, users can now scan food labels to automatically log nutritional information, helping them monitor daily dietary intake. Initially available in the U.S. and select European countries, this feature will expand to other regions over time. You can download Samsung Health at Google Play Store or Samsung App Store.
And if you’re interested in tracking your calories , check out MyFitnessPal, which is one of the best food intake/calorie counter app we have used (publications like Healthline and Fortune also agree).
