Smart Things Family Care and Samsung Health

[DeLoreanCowboy]

I do not know where to put my feature request. So I figured I would start a thread here. 

I just set up for my Mother the Family Care section of the Smart Things app. 

I live with my mother and take care of her. Its nice to know when she's actively using her phone. She doesn't carry it around with her and she wouldn't wear a watch or ring for the step counts. 

But it's nice to know where she is. At all times. 

I go into Events and I want to add her medications. However....

It would be nice if since Smart Things is able to get her step count from Samsung Health why wouldn't Smart Things be able to get her Medications from Samsung Health?

That would be the bare minimum. Sync her Medications from Samsung Health. Let me change her Medications on Smart Things and have that sync to her Samsung Health app...

Id like to be able to mark that she took her medication on my phone like I do my own. And then get updates when she is running low on a medication like I do on my phone. 

Maybe even be able to sync weight, blood pressure, etc would be great. 

Sorry for the long post. Its just dealing with ailing family members is hard sometimes. And I dont want to have to take her phone from her every time.

To submit your feature request to the developers, go to the support tab of the Members app, follow the instructions here: https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Tips-Tricks/How-to-Send-Feedback/ba-p/3001692 chose the category "others" or "apps and services".  Preface your request with a header that it is a feature request.  Type out (or copy/paste) your request, uncheck the "send log" box and submit your request.

Thanks. I just sent it. 🙏

That's actually a good, logical, idea though.  If they are going to have a "family care" feature, they should include remote actions for caregivers.  Otherwise, what's the point?

I just noticed theres Health Data Sharing in Samsung Health. Im gonna try to get her to share it from there when next I talk to her and see if that gets me the information I need.

[AAbbott]

I think that will only share the info, not let tou make changes to her med schedule

[DeLoreanCowboy]

Yeah... thats possible.

[DeLoreanCowboy]

Unfortunately I dont need this anymore... but i hope they make these changes for others who need to take care of their family.

I hope that means she moved into assisted living and not expired.  If it's the latter, sorry for your loss.

[DeLoreanCowboy]

Thank you... its the later.
