Since the last update, I saw that I have problems with H.R. No matter what I did, I restarted, uninstalled and reinstalled Facer but still the same. No matter which face I put the HR on, it remains at 0 or sometimes 77 or 79 appears. Before, I had no problem. Is there anyone else who has the same problem. I use GS 5 pro
No idea about this sorry, but you could check that you have all necessary App Permissions granted on your Phone and Watch
thank you very much for your help, I will check and restart the phone. until the last update, I really didn’t have any problems
Good luck
There have been 2 Facer updates recently after the One UI5 Update from Samsung . Since then the permissions for the Sensors ( HR and SPO2 ) have changed . The whole thing is still being Beta Tested as far as I can see .
Samsung are Desperate to get FDA approval for thier HR sensor . Basically what that means is it has to be ON all the time . Samsung are saying that that will consume no extra battery power ?!?! .
So if you have a Facer Face with the HR sensor on and reboot it you should get a Permissions choice as it loaded . On Permanently , When the App is being Used and Manual .
I have been choosing While Using the App . Sometimes the HR sensor switches off when the Display Sleeps . But mostly gets stuck on .
If you go to the Samsung Heath App there are the same settings there .
I feel there is a conflict between the two settings . I am sure they are not shared .
I am so fed up with trying to get it to work without being On all the time . I am not using ANY Faces with HR on at the moment .
If you are happy for the sensor being on night and day change the settings and it will read Fine .
I am more intrested in a longer battery life.
I also have GW 5 pro and do not have any problem, HR works.
Try everything above (permissions, set Heartrate to: measure continuosly)
and
then try setting any Samsung’s watchface then switch back to Facer.
It helps when steps get stucked, maybe it will also help with HR.
We can only remember the good old times when Samsung was based on Tizen OS, everything worked out-of-the-box…
I love getting my GW Active out . Very pleased Facer still support it .
If we are struggling to make everything work I can only imagine how disappointed “regular” users are, I mean the ones who do not know and do not care about permissions, location ON, tips and tricks…
When I buy any gadget I expect it to work with just a minimum effort on my side.
This is crazy how Samsung/Google are complicating things.
correctly, I think that I will do the future girls without HR. Thank you very much for your help

[/quote]with the steps, I also noticed that you have to select a separate watch face to do, then it returns to normal. Thanks for the advice, I hope to solve this problem
@apostu.alin . Keep an eye on the Feedback . For a long time . We could not rely on a reading of the Phone Battery . That got fixed eventually and provides Symetry in Designs for those like myself who have to have everthing Symetric . We should call this the OCD Club. The HR Sensor thing will be Fixed . It is important to Most . I have Bookmarked this Topic so if there is any Positive news I will not miss it. Some will be very happy to have the HR monitored constantly . Recently one of the Makers was commended for saving a Users Life as his HR was on display on his Watch making it plain there was a serious Emergency . Sadly I can not real the makers nam right now .
If you have a heart condition and want to monitor it I think Samsung is a good Option . Blood Oxygen would be important too . But you would need a GW5 Pro for the Battery life .
I must say that my My wTch battery is lasting nearly twice as long since the recent updates . But WiFi and the Development stuff is switched off .
Im facing same issue. But mine worse. HR and steps showing 0. I have done everything. Remove and reinstall both on my GW 4 classic and S22 ultra. But to make it works, i need to change watch face to GW pre installed face watch (digital dashboard) and change it back. And its work fine until i turn off and on again. Need to switch to GW pre-installed and switch it back.
