Install the Samsung Health Monitor app
First, make sure to install the Samsung Health Monitor app on both your watch and phone. Once you download the app on your phone, it should automatically install on the watch as well.

1. Navigate to and open the Galaxy Store on the connected phone.
2. Search for and select Samsung Health Monitor, and then tap Install.
3. When it's installed, open the app and follow the on-screen instructions to set it up.
