Body composition won't load past 67%

[DakotaDad]

I'm having many problems with the watch 6 Classic. I can never get past 67% when trying to take my body composition. It always stops there and gives me all sorts of reasons, like don't touch anything but the button or try wetting your fingers ,or raise your arms ,or,or,or........ While I'm at it samsung health used to announce current and average speed ( current speed 3.9 mph, average speed 4.0). It now only announces step count. Please bring back current and average speed. Thanks. I never had a problem on my watch classic 4 getting  my body comp. I hope it is a software problem and not physical.

Mine is doing the same....

I was having the exact same problem with the body comp.  I tried resetting the watch, using moisturizer as suggested, and moving the watch further up my arm, but nothing worked.

Then I realized I had swapped the original watch band, with a nicer metal one.  Curious if the metal in the band could be the issue, I switch back to the factory plastic band.  Body comp works every time, never hangs anymore.  May be worth a try?

Body composition is a bogus measurement anyway.  As for the walking workout stats, you can change the data sets that show on your screen, and I believe it also translates to the spoken guide.  In the watch's health app (or tile, if you have a screen for it), center the workout you want to change the data set for (walking), then tap on settings.  When you are in the settings, scroll down to workout screen and tap it, select data screen 1 and change the information layout to the one that includes the information you want.

That worked. Thank you!

This still happens on the galaxy watch 7. Exactly stops at 67% no matter what. Still not solved.

Good morning. It's Monday which to me means it's time to do my weight and record my body composition. I have been on a weight lose journey since 2019. Having the correct information is very important to me. When I went to do my composition this morning I noticed 2 other composition that I didn't do. I only do this on Monday. How do I delete these 2 entries?

@userUGncQxUCH5 Try this:

1. Open the Samsung Health app
2. Click on the Weight widget (if you have body composition on that day, it will show that in addition to weight)
3. In the chart, click on the date where this erroneous body composition is located. 
4. Click the 3 dots in upper right
5. Select delete.
6. You can choose all items, or the individual items. You could have individual items if you entered your weight alone and then later did a composition.

That worked. Thank you so much

Yep, me too - "galaxy watch 7. Exactly stops at 67% no matter what. Still not solved." 

I have restarted the watch, turned off auto detect workouts and turn it back on, made sure I have all the updates, tried wearing watch tighter, looser, higher, lower, on the inside wrist, outside wrist, etc. Tried every stupid trick that is suggested on the internet and nothing works. Actually fairly infuriating at times.

This watch did test one test properly for me when I first got it within the last 2 weeks and after that it has never worked. Piece of **bleep**. Samsung never fixes these things. I also have issues with the sleep portion of their app where they never updated to let us adjust sleep times, or add or subtract naps etc. in fact I think they took those options away from us a couple years ago. Apple and Android that's really all we get to choose from? We're **bleep** lol

Wow, and the forum AI edits out words like "cr@p" with **bleep**?! Gimme a break
