Hey! 

I have the Galaxy watch ultra and it's been amazing and really good with fitness tracking. But Samsung seems to be lacking versus the competition when it comes to the health app. Firstly it doesn't have a training load tracking option so for people looking to get more insights into their fitness that does become crucial and I hope they'll add it later. Secondly Samsung does not offer advanced running training plans like for a half marathon or a full marathon and just goes up to 10K which is another thing that they need to improve on because there are more serious runners and people more serious about fitness that would like to use Samsung but can't because of the limitations. 

To the Samsung health team, please please please consider adding these features. I'd appreciate it and I'm sure the fitness community would as well! 

Thanks!

It's called Samsung Health, yet it doesn't allow you to enter your body temperature, something that every medical practioner records when you visit their office, along with blood pressure and respiration. So... Good luck with your request. You'd be better off finding a specialized running app IMHO.

Who records their body temperature unless they are sick? Also, I was given to understand that the watch 5, 6 and 7 have a body temperature function.

Some women will track their ovulations by their temperature.

And yes, if your sick, it would be helpful info to hand over to medical staff should you worsen and be hospitalized.

Yes, my Watch6 tracks my body temperature during sleep, but only then.

Also, if you live in cold or heat environments, it could help against hypo and hyperthermia during other activities.

Well, that's why they make thermometers.

Yes, they do make thermometers, but it would be nice to have that information available on the app, just like my heart rate or O2 levels. It's just another helpful data point. I would imagine that runners and open water swimmers would find the data helpful as well.

That's just my point of view, and while I appreciate your statement, I find that it does not add to the conversation as it is an obvious remark that adds little to the conversation.

If you require such specialized measurements, you should perhaps see if there's anything on the market that records such things.
