Galaxy WatchToday, I have been watching Youtube videos and one Youtube videos mentioned in having all of the sensors on by going to the settings on the Samsung Health on the watch, click on share data with devices and services, click health platform "Allow All" for the data permissions. In addition I have changed the clock face to a simple face that does not have steps and the HR number. I also have clear the cache on the Samsung Health and the Galaxy Watch 6 in the apps. Tomorrow, I will see what the comparison will be between the Galaxy watch and the Fitbit as i didn't know about the tips from the Youtube video since this afternoon so at midnight will be a clean start. With my Fitbit, I can still get steps counted when mowing the lawn with the lawnmower unlike the galaxy watch 6 that I have found out that mowing the lawn does not count as the arm is not moving. To me the feet are moving which should count. The sensor should not count arm movement. I carry my phone on the left hand and the galaxy watch is on the left hand so I wonder would I be missing out on steps. I will test it tomorrow again😊. Thank you sooo much for responding 😊.

Galaxy Watchright about the blood pressure as it is not approved by FDA for the United States but approved in other countries. I will be doing another test tomrrow pushing a shopping cart and chair on wheels to see if the watch count the steps.

Galaxy Watchalways wondered about somehow strapping my watch onto my ankle while mowing just to see how far I actually walked, but haven't done that yet - does seem like GPS could figure something out. I've not used a treadmill workout, wonder if that would be more similar to mowing?

Galaxy Watch@cwinkler today I have tested walking on my sister's treadmill at 1.4 mph with the galaxy watch 6. With both arms on the treadmill, the watch did not record the steps. With only one arm on the treadmill that had the watch on (right arm), the watch did not record the steps. With the left arm on the treadmill and the right arm (watch) swinging, the watch recorded the steps.
Last week ,I have did a smimilar test but with a chair at work with wheels and got the same results. Pushing the chair on wheels with the left arm and having the right arms swinging (watch), the watch recorded the steps. A couple days later, the left arm that was doing all of the work in pushing the chair, was in pain, sore that I was taking ibuprofen and the left arm is still sore today.
I also mow the lawn and I need both arms on the lawn mower handle. It will be impossible to push the lawn mower with one arm without damaging the muscle in the arm that does not have the watch on.
