Hi,
One of the most important problems that I have with my watch (Galaxy watch 4 Classic), is auto detection for cycling, that currently does not exist. I searched a lot in internet, but didn't find any solution for it.
I am one of the serious fans of Samsung and would like to request you to add this important option to watches because it is very important for the people who go to work by bike everyday and also in comparison with apple watch (that have this option) it doesn't seem good.
Best Regards

Samsung you need to get this feature implemented. My GW 3 worked perfectly in this case. Cycling is my most regular exercise. It is all very well catering for gym equipment but I like to be outside in the fresh air for exercise on a real bike!

I have exactly the same problem with my watch 5 pro, even my gear s2 classic used to detect cycling automatically albeit after some minutes of cycling. I don't understand why a later and much more expensive watch model is not doing better at it. Samsung, you need to resolve this issue ASAP. I am seriously considering returning the watch and switching to a more intelligent smart watch if nothing is done about this seemingly simple matter in good time.

Rather than returning, you could use the Google Fit app? It detects cycling for me

This has been a massive disappointment that I've realised since getting the Watch 4. I had the Watch Active 2 which auto detected cycling just fine, and the fact that a newer watch doesn't have this feature feels like a massive downgrade in usability, and a really bad call on Samsung's part. To add insult to injury, the watch seems to be quite adept at picking up on stops at traffic lights when I manually set the watch to log cycling, auto pausing the work out. So this was a conscious choice to leave out it seems, not anything to do with the watch's abilities. How stupid.

I commute by bike, do calisthenics 1 a week and sport-climb another 2-3 times a week. My Galaxy 4 is terrible at all of them. I mainly use the watch for checking time a and weather. What a terrible mistake was to buy this watch. Never again Samsung. Though, If somebody ask me for a watch to count repetitions in the gym, having to reach your watch every series, will highly recommend it. Good running and walking tracking, a pity I hate running.

Do Samsung actually respond to such requests?
