Samsung Health is getting an AI assistant that can likely be of some use to people who own a Galaxy device of some kind. While AI is already integrated in Samsung Health, the AI interactions happen in the background and are used to display data to the user. For example, the Sleep Score you get from recorded sleep data is powered by Galaxy AI. You can see this type of data after wearing your Galaxy Watch 8 to bed for a certain number of nights in a row.
The new AI assistant works differently, though. It’s essentially a chatbot, so you can ask it questions and get real answers. Much like you would with the Meta AI chatbot in Messenger. It’s not clear when Samsung is rolling this out, but it is clear that it’s not yet publicly available.
The Samsung Health AI assistant will give you responses based on your recorded health metrics
This is how this new tool is going to help users. It’ll account for recorded health metrics that were gathered by your devices, such as a Galaxy Watch 8 Classic or Galaxy Ring, and then it’ll issue a response based on that data if there is any relevant data to begin with. The new feature was spotted by SammyGuru (via 9To5Google), who notes that the assistant will be able to read responses out loud.
So, if you ask it how to improve your sleep, it can look at your sleep data, then tell you how to improve your sleep out loud so you don’t have to read it. This could be especially useful if you’re doing something where you aren’t really hands-free. It could also make it easy to use such a feature with devices like the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro.
This feature is reportedly in testing, which suggests that a small number of users may have access as part of that. Samsung Health doesn’t require a Samsung phone, so it’s possible this feature will be available to non-Samsung device users. Though at this time it isn’t clear if that will be the case.
