Hello, the jumping rope workout is available on the s health app on the phone but not available in the list of workouts on the samsung galaxy watch active. Can this be added on the watch so that we can be able to start the workout directly on the watch and therefore track heart rate data.

I regretted not reading up enough before buying this piece of junk. Who will have thought such a basic feature will be left out

Ok, now that many people are without the use of gyms I thing it would be worth considering adding one measly workout to the list on their watch that alot of people realistically are probably doing. I have adopted the use of a jump rope for cardio to replace the cost of a gym membership as I'm sure many have for various reasons. I believe it's a small inconvenience for a large company that many would appreciate, please consider re evaluating your decision.

This is very weird that what is on the S Health phone app will not be on the watch. Especially common workouts like rope, zumba / dancing, crossfit. Most people with the active 2 are likely to do a cross section of this than be serious runners. Is there anyway this can be included as part of an update? Just realized this post purchase.. Feel silly 😕

Please listen to your own reply.  Does it not sound absurd? 

 

How is jumping rope not a basic and popular exercise, especially during the COVID period when everyone is more confined??  For many gym and fitness enthusiasts jumping rope IS a fundamental exercise for fast weigh lost, building/toning muscles and coordination improvement.

 

As a customer on the Samsung ecosystem I will like to demand for jump rope tracking to be included in Galaxy watch ASAP.  

 

Please listen, thank you.

This really doesn't make sense that Samsung will put it on the phone, but not the watch.. no one would choose to carry their bulky phone over wearing the watch while jumping rope.. this is the one exercise that shouldn't have any excuse..

This is far from solve! How can it be so difficult to add a jump rope tracker? One of the best cardio exercises widely extended around the world moreover in these days with the gyms closed. DO SOMETHING SAMSUNG!

That makes absolutely no sense. If the activity is on the phone, put it on the watch!

Samsung R&D get your ***** together, add all the workouts to the watch. What is your issue? We don't want "simplicity", we want our "smart watch" to actually be smart!
