Lets Start Group Challenge Feature in Samsung Health

January 7, 2021 Off By Rowena Cletus


Say goodbye to dull and monotonous workout sessions and say hello to fun and engaging ones where you can have a Group Challenge feature in the Samsung Health app, allowing you to invite up to 10 people for a health competition and see who can move the furthest or the fastest.

Being home for the holidays or over-indulging in food may have gotten in the way of your fitness goals, but that does not mean getting back on track is a daunting task.
Beginning January 12, Galaxy users can join group challenges in the ‘Together’ portion of the Samsung Health application to find out who can reach a certain number of steps first, or who can gobble the most steps in an allotted time frame.

If you activate the challenge, you can then invite up to 9 friends to join, even if they aren’t already using Samsung Health.


Discover your fitness motivation
Samsung Health app users who use the fitness Challenge feature walk over 22% more than the average Samsung Health app users. Samsung’s research concludes that motivation and competition are essential to achieving your health goals, which is why Samsung continually adds new features and capabilities to ensure you have fun while maximizing fitness. Group Challenge is the most recent extension of the Samsung Health Challenge program, which is accessible through the Together tab on the bottom of the Samsung Health app.


You can also compete against other Samsung Health users globally by participating in one of our most popular challenges, Global Challenge, which enables you to track your progress each month against every other Samsung Health user around the world. In addition, you can create Groups so you can see each of your friends’ progress when you’re not together, and even create more than one Group to challenge your entire family or work team.
