If you tend to exercise often while wearing your Galaxy watch, you’ll be glad to know that the Galaxy Watch6 series will create a personalized heart rate zone based on your activities. This feature takes your lifestyle, body, cardio endurance, and training regimen into account when creating your zone.

1. To begin using this feature on your Galaxy Watch6, navigate to and tap the Exercise tile, and then tap Running.
2. Tap the Settings icon, and then tap HR Zone guide.
   
   
3. Tap the switch at the top to enable the feature, and then select your preferred zone. For instance, you can choose Maximum, Weight control, or Low intensity.
4. The available HR zones may update and change as you continue to exercise while wearing your watch. You can use the previous steps to alter your HR zones if needed.

This brand new feature automatically detects irregular heart rhythms and then alerts you! Your Galaxy Watch6 will then prompt you to take an ECG (electrocardiogram) test to confirm your current health.

1. When the ECG test appears on your Galaxy Watch, tap Take ECG, and then allow the permissions if prompted.
   
   Note: You may need to open the Samsung Health app on your connected Galaxy phone to continue. Follow the on-screen instructions.
   
   
2. Using your opposite hand, lightly rest one of your fingers on the watch’s Home button for 30 seconds. A countdown will appear at the top of the watch’s screen.
   
   Note: Do not press the Home button during the recording process.
3. When the recording has finished, the ECG results will appear on your watch. Swipe up and down to view the results.
4. If you are experiencing any symptoms or are feeling unwell, swipe to the bottom of the screen, and then tap Add. Select your symptoms using the provided list, and then tap Save.
   

Once you've finished with the measurements, a report will be generated that you can share with your healthcare professional.

You can rely on the Galaxy Watch6 series to get you through your busiest days, whether you’re at the gym or the office, thanks to its increased battery capacity of 300mAH. The Galaxy Watch6 and Galaxy Watch6 Classic also feature a 20% larger display than previous models, and are composed of sapphire crystal glass and stainless steel for durability.

Previous Galaxy watch models included a rotating bezel, and although this bezel has made a return with the Galaxy Watch6 series, it’s now slimmer and easier to use than ever before.
