This is very frustrating, such an easy conversion that could be added for usability! If I had know I couldn't record my weight in Stones and pounds I wouldn't have bought samsung! Very Disappointing

This would be really useful as all other health apps have this option, because this isn't a option, I only use Samsung health to sync it's data to other fitness apps, but I'd much prefer to use Samsung health. So this would be a nice feature request.

Would be nice to have stones & pounds as a measurement option for Samsung health, which is a measurement used in the UK, all the other leading fitness apps have this. Current Samsung health only does KG and pounds. Due to this measurement not being apart of Samsung Health, I tend not to use the app as my primary fitness app and only use it to sync data to other fitness apps. But Samsung health does have a really nice interface and useful features. So it would be nice to use it as my primary fitness app. So yeah this feature would be appreciated!

Totally agree. Fed up of googling my weight for conversion (especially as I can't type so have to say it out loud every time!). I think unfortunately that the UK is the only country that uses stones so I can't see Samsung making allowances for us. I mean I only got my August security update on my fancy flagship S23 last week, so it shows what they think of us here (ie not much)!

Such a simple update, can't understand why they don't?

I would love stones and lbs as a weight unit. I came from Fitbit and would like this option.

Does anyone from Samsung even look at these? How do you submit a feature request?

Can we have the option for Stones & lb in Samsung Health please? I think the UK is the only country to still use that system but it's annoying that Samsung still doesn't give the option. Other health apps have the option available.

I've had a look & this is the way to do it. I've done it again this morning but I don't think Samsung is bothered about the UK. Can we say they're discriminating by not doing it? 😄

If you go into the support section on the Samsung Members App and leave feedback in there for developers to see
Unfortunately this forum is not the best place to highlight to developers features you would like to have implemented.
Best place is the feedback section

Hi guys,

This was put forward to as a suggestion to our R&D team a bit back. The developers replied then that as it stood the current options were the most popular and best supported by vendors, so it wasn't in their plans. But, they'd also monitor for more users who would like the option.

I've merged a few related threads to help show the user demand a bit better.
