When I bought the watch, inactivity reminders were only notified for continuous 50 minutes of inactivity, if between those 50 minutes I did some activity it restarted again, not sending the inactivity reminder until it counts 50 minutes of inactivity.
And also after the inactivity notification, if I did some activity it send the message 'you are active again'.
After a while, I don't know if because some update, it sends the inactivity reminder even when I was active just some minutes ago, and after that, if I did some activity it doesn't registers anything, not sending any new notification.
So I have disabled it, if it works well again I will be glad to be notified so I can activate it again, so far I can only tell that inactivity reminders doesn't works on this watch.

Very bad or lazy work for samsung, a 200€ watch that can't do a basic task that other less than 30€ watches does... and BTW, set the option to change the fixed 50 minutes.
As @JBPX says, each update brokes something and it's not solved, and also resets some of my configurations, having to set them again, and again, and again for each update.
I'm about to renew my tv, soundbar and phone, all of them are Samsung now, but they are losing points to keep the same brand

Yesterday it worked as it is supposed to do. Today it doesn't works.
Also yesterday to exercise monitoring goes to a worst state, I was running and each time I see the watch to monitor distance and speed it has returned to the time, I have to open the activity each time.
What it's happening with this watch? Is there any quality check before updating the app?

I have it configured to start at 8:00 am, for some reason when it fails to manitoring it sends the first alert at 8:20, not monitoring any activity related to the activity alert since then.
Every day that passes with this error, my feeling of having made a mistake in buying this watch grows, and with the new update that makes it more uncomfortable to see the active exercise routine, I only feel like throwing away everything I have from Samsung.

So it looks like trying to activate the inactivity alerts I activate the steps and the achievents notitifications, when I received some of those (for me) silly notifications I disbled them, but it looks that this doesn't dissables that alert, it disables all notifications from health, and for some reason it also provoques the wath to not keep the exercise screen while doing an exercise, it returns to the home screen.
This happens to more people: https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/wearables/watch-screen-returning-to-home-screen-during-exercise/...
And the en of that thread is a link to the solution: https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyWatch/s/xFY7SM2XKv
Which it was: Go to settings> notifications> APP notifications> Samsung health - Turn it on
I keep trying to get the inactivity alert while not receiving other notifications I don't want and keeping the exercise screen while doing an exercise, it should be easy, but it looks it's not... and when it works for a few days, a new update brokes it all.

So today it wasn't working, first activity warning at scheduled time, without taking note of any previous activity, I was walking just a few minutes before the alert, and after the alert, I walk again but it doen't sends the 'you are active again' message.
I shutdown the watch, started again, and now it works tracking activity, only sending the inactivity alert 50 minutes of the last activity, and if the inactivity message was sent, resetting the time after it registers activity, sending the 'you are active again' message.
No configuration changed, just a restart of the watch. Let's see how many time it keeps working as it should be.

Only 2 days working, today it has failed again to control activity, nothing changed on the watch and it just stopped working.
The only thing I can note is that yesterday I didn't move after the last alert at 14:52, when it ends at 15:00.
Today I get the alert activity just at 8:00, when it begans, and no activity control since then.
And if that's not enough I have just received like 10 notifications of silly Global Goals non asked updates
I'm starting to hate this watch too much, I will start looking to buy another and I will get rid of all my samsung things.

The only way I found to make it work is by turning it off and on again each day, then it works for that day.
