Wheelchair mode

[omaramir]

I recently got a smart watch for Samsung and for the most part, I really like it, BUT I can't believe we are in 2023 and tech had advanced so far yet we can't even have a simple 'wheelchair user' option on the watch.

I've gotten the watch reminder thing to get moving and walking and I can't tell you how frustrating it is to see that. Even just rewording could be a really simple change. I would love instead of tracking 'steps' maybe it could be renamed to 'pushes'. Instead of 'get walking', maybe it could be 'get rolling'. It's really simple changes. It's literally just software. I'm disappointed samsung hasn't already had this.

I didn't want to say this but apple already does this. Why is Samsung not?

Maybe go into the support section on the Samsung Members App and leave feedback there.
Feedback will be sent to the relevant development team

Thank you, didn't know I could do this. Sent it to them!

This could be easy to do aswell. On my old watch,as part of the exercise routines, it had a mode for those ski machines. This would be similar to "pushing" your arms. So yes I don't see any reason why it couldn't work.

It's 2026 in a few days time and guess what...my fitness software and watch think I'm not moving ad much as I should...because it cannot detect my movements in a wheelchair....Samsung, come in now, really....at this point it starts to feel like either wheelchair users are not so important to you, or just discriminated against. It's shameful that you cam build Trifolding phones, but not update your software to be actually inclusive of wheelchair users!!!

It's ridiculous. Samsung usually leads the field and so it seems inclusion isnt important to them
