The “Open App > Heart rate” action opens the Samsung Health app on the watch, showing the Heart Rate sub-page of that app.
The Samsung Health Monitor app (ie. the EKG app) only monitors blood pressure and EKG, but not heart rate.
So the issue still remains - let’s look at it in the form of a logic statement:
- IF the “Open App > heart rate” action opens the default health app on its Heart Rate sub-page;
- AND IF the default health app also has a Step Count sub-page;
- THEN it stands to reason that it should be possible for WFS to also have a “Open App > step count” action too.
Regarding statement #2 above - does the default health app on Wear OS always have a Step Count sub-page? The answer must be “yes”, because Step Count is one of the SystemProviders that all WearOS devices must support. And this is proven by the fact that WFS supports Step Count as a default provider, which wouldn’t be possible if Step Count wasn’t available on all Wear OS devices.
Again, can you please ask the devs about this? I want to know if they can add Step Count to the Open App actions list, and if not, then why not.
I know there’s an app shortcut complication, but that’s not what I’m asking for here. I’m just asking for an Open App action that can be used to open the Steps page of the default health app.
But every Wear OS watch has a default health app!
