You shouldn't take my word for it though cause that guy has several watches, you should probably ask the guys in xda for more info.

    Thanks for the info, man! I'm with the US CSC (XAR) and so far no update.

    Does anybody know the languages the Korean CSC supports?

        So far the only region that has the update so far is in korea at the moment.

                        No go for Active 1 ?:(

                          No need to wait for Samsung to release blood pressure software in UK. Use MyBPLab now (just requires a regular BP cuff to calibrate then use your watch (Active 2) thereafter....works very well and is accurate too

                            I already have some of this "new" features in my Watch and I haven't received a new update. I can see photos and the full thread of a conversation

                                leVinchy, 10 Sep 2020Nice, still no ECG though but atleast is something.I don't trust the ECG's accuracy (on a smartwatch) and it doesn't seem to match the "active" watch ethos. Blood saturation is a good option though, to see at a glance if you're alright, and could be pretty reliable on this sort of application.
