How to enable ECG and Blood Pressure features on the Samsung Galaxy Watch

[thumbtak]

The Samsung Galaxy Watch offers support for a wide array of health tracking and fitness features. However, some of these features are not available to all users. For instance, the ECG and blood pressure features are restricted to certain regions, and you can’t use them when the watch is paired with a non-Samsung phone even in supported regions. Thankfully, there’s a workaround to get these features across all regions, even on non-Samsung devices. If you’re using your Galaxy Watch with a non-Samsung phone or don’t have access to the features due to regional restrictions, here’s how you can enable ECG and blood pressure on your Galaxy Watch.

These are the steps to get it working …
