Set up the Together feature
Before you can start participating in Challenges and having fun with your gym buddies, you will need to set up the Together feature.
- On your phone, navigate to and open Samsung Health, and then tap the Together tab.
- Tap Get started and then tap Allow to give Samsung Health permission to access your phone's contacts. This is needed so you can connect with friends in the app.
- Confirm your phone number, and then tap Start.
- Once it's all set up, you can add friends by finding them through the Friends page. Please see the next section to learn more.
Connect with friends in Samsung Health
Maybe you want to challenge some buddies to a little friendly competition. Luckily, as long as you've set up Together, you can add friends whether they are hardcore Samsung Health users or have never even used it!
- First, open the Samsung Health app, and then tap the Together tab.
- Tap Friends at the top of the screen, and then tap Connect when prompted.
Note: You can also select Keep contacts synced.
- From there, select your desired method to add a friend: QR code or Invite.
- QR code lets you add a friend by scanning their Samsung Health QR code. Invite lets you send a link through email, text, or other sharing methods.
- Once you've chosen a method, follow the on-screen prompts to add a friend.
Create an individual or team challenge
Once you join Together, you can work out with your best friends or people from other countries. You can select from individual or team challenges.
- Open Samsung Health, and then tap the Together tab.
- Tap Create challenge, and then select your desired challenge. You can choose between Get there first or Go the farthest.
- Get there first creates a walking or running challenge with a certain number of steps. You can invite friends, and whoever reaches the target first wins.
- Go the farthest creates a challenge to see who can get the most steps in a set amount of time. You can invite friends to this challenge as well.
- Once you've decided on what challenge to do, tap Individual or Team under Get there first or Go the farthest.
- Next, enter a title and your other preferred settings for the challenge (the date, the step count, etc.).
- Tap Create, and then tap Invite friends to send an invitation to specific friends, or tap Share link to send a link.
