Aerobics workout on Samsung health app on phone but not in active 2 watch

[Comet1]

I can't find aerobics as a workout on the active 2 watch. It is on Samsung health. Is there a way to add it? I would have thought the workouts on the watch would match the app

I have the same issue. I do not have a workout that is arm curls only etc but I do have aerobic only workouts and they're no the watch 😬

The same issue, very annoying, considering that I do aerobics only((

I have the same problem. I have aerobics on the phone samsung health app but I dont have it on the samsung active 2 watch. How do I add it it? I do aerobics more often especially now with this corona virus lockdown. I need to monitor my exercise closely. Please help.

Same here.  Very frustrating as you know Samsung reads this is and is likely very aware of the issue.  For what it's worth, the aerobics calorie estimate entry on the app is the one exercise that actually comes closest to actual calorie burn as recorded by my HRM.  All the other categories record calorie burn much lower than actual.  So I'd like to be able to use it on the watch while working out.   Come on Samsung!

Hello, what you need to do is click other workout on your watch. Once you are done and it syncs to your phone you can change it to aerobic. It will correct you calories burned based off of what your watch has detected.

Oh, thanks.  That's helpful.

Thanks. I changed other workout that was synced from my watch to my phone to aerobic, but it didn't update calories or anything. Everything stayed the same.
