To ensure the most accurate blood pressure measurement with your Galaxy Watch, follow these steps:

1 Wear your Galaxy Watch on the same wrist as during the calibration and make sure the strap is snug but not too tight.
2 Avoid alcohol, caffeine, smoking, exercise, and bathing for at least 30 minutes before the measurement.
3 Ensure your arm and wrist are dry and free of excessive perspiration or skin lotion.
4 Take the measurement in a quiet, indoor location.
5 Sit in a comfortable chair with your back well-supported, legs uncrossed, and feet flat. Place your arms and forearms on a table.
6 Rest in this position for at least 5 minutes before starting the measurement.
7 When you begin the measurement, remain still and do not move your arm or speak.
8 Breathe normally during the measurement. Do not try to deepen or slow down your breath.

If you continue to experience issues with your blood pressure measurement despite following these precautions, you can send log data along with a screenshot of the problem to the relevant department for review. To obtain log data, reproduce the issue on your watch and then go to Samsung Health Monitor Apps on your mobile device. From the More menu, select Contact us, then Error reports. Check the "Send system log data" box and send the report. It's important to obtain the log data immediately after reproducing the issue.
