Thanks to the Samsung Health app, some details of the advanced health features of the upcoming Galaxy Ring have been revealed. This app will be responsible for sharing user data so that another family member can access it and get alerts on certain age-related complications with an incredible feature of the Galaxy Watch 7, which is said to include an index of advanced glycation end products (AGEs).
The AGE index from time to time plays a vital role in the development of certain age-related diseases such as diabetes, strokes and heart attacks. Samsung has reportedly partnered with Diagnoptics to develop this capability in its upcoming Galaxy Watches.
From the Samsung app, you can create a reading index of the data collected by the Galaxy Watch. What’s exciting about this technology, according to Android AuthorityThis would allow device owners could measure AGEs non-invasively; Recent studies have identified that AGEs have a fluorescence that could be easy to calculate. What happens is that a good part of the monitoring processes remain invasive.
So, Samsung could be getting closer to Apple with the Galaxy Watch 7, which continues to be considered an industry standard in health monitoring. In fact, one of its shortcomings is the ability to share health data between family members, just like Apple does in its ecosystem with the iPhone. A new leak claims that This feature is coming to the Samsung Health ecosystem.
Again, some lines of code were found in the Samsung Health app that indicate that a user can see the health data of his family members such as parents or children and thus be aware of their progress to review them in the event of complications.
Sharing health data with family members
Of course, the family member must have a wearable device, like a Galaxy Watch or the upcoming Galaxy Ring. Privacy is also secured with an approval process by the father’s Samsung account to access the data of the little one in the house.
And access can be removed at any time and control the types of data shared. Other measures are the guardian’s consent to access the child’s health data and the information will stop being shared in case of a period of high inactivity.
It’s unclear at this point when Samsung plans to launch this feature, but with Galaxy Unpacked on July 10th very close, it’s safe to assume that it could be revealed alongside the announcement of the Galaxy Watch 7, Galaxy Watch Ultra, and Galaxy Ring. There’s another mystery, according to Android Policeforks Whether this feature will reach the rest of the Galaxy Watch remains to be seen. already present on the Spanish market under the name Galaxy Watch 6.
