The Samsung Health App provides personalized insights to help you understand your daily activity, manage weight, stay motivated with fitness challenges or get support for quitting smoking.

Samsung Gear S, a Samsung-branded wearable device, has an internal gyroscope inside. When the wearer is sleeping, the gyroscope can detect motion which contributes to measuring sleep patterns.
