Samsung Discontinues Vascular Load Feature in US Smartwatches

Source: Date:

Samsung is set to remove the Vascular Load feature from its smartwatches in the United States. This change will take effect with the rollout of Samsung Health version 7.0 and One UI 9 Watch, expected in late July.

The new Galaxy Watch9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, anticipated for unveiling on July 22, will come pre-installed with One UI 9 Watch. Previous models will receive this update gradually thereafter.

After Vascular Load is removed, users will no longer see this data in Samsung Health. However, it remains possible to download personal data by navigating to More options > Settings > Download personal data.

In place of Vascular Load, Samsung will introduce a new feature called Blood Pressure Trend, available on the upcoming Galaxy Watch. This feature will periodically monitor your blood pressure, displaying trends over time, and offering tips to promote healthy habits. To begin tracking your Blood Pressure Trend, users must first connect a blood pressure cuff to set up the Galaxy Watch.
