After that, users can measure the blood pressure through the Galaxy Watch Active2’s pulse wave analysis which uses the smartwatch’s onboard sensors. The results are then synced with the Health Monitor app installed on the smartphone paired with the Watch Active2, and users can track their blood pressure by days, weeks and months and can share data with their doctors if they want.
