ENABLE AUTOMATIC LOCATION DETECTION
The Galaxy Watch 4 comes with automatic exercise detection for walking, running, swimming, etc. Once the watch detects that you are exercising for a fixed period, it will log in all the details.
However, the watch doesn’t have automatic location detection enabled by default since switching on GPS at all times can hog battery life. But if you go for walks and runs outdoors, it’s wise to enable Location Detection. This way, it’s easy to track the run, the miles you have run, and the calories you have burned, among others.
To enable Location Detection, open Settings > Samsung Health on your smartwatch and choose Auto to detect workouts. Next, scroll down until you see the option for Record Location, and toggle the switch next to it.
