To commemorate World Health Day, Samsung Latin America shares new data on the use of the Samsung Health platform. Consolidated information in February 2026 shows an expansion in the number of weekly active users on the application. In Latin America, the average growth in usage reached 50% compared to last year, 10% higher than that recorded globally. The numbers have peaked, surpassing 400 people per minute actively accessing data on Samsung Health.

These numbers reflect the behavior of Latin American consumers and their focus on improving essential aspects of their daily lives. Samsung shows that Latin America is increasingly connected to its health, seeking a better relationship with food and nutrition, exercise as a daily habit and better rest. Consumers see Samsung Health as an ally to improve these aspects of life, with a simple interface that translates what the body communicates every day.

Community engagement also emerges as a key differentiator, as Samsung Health enables data integration and sharing of pre-selected information among a group of users. This helps create a strong sense of belonging, essential for building new health habits. An example is Together, a feature available in Samsung Health, where the user can share how many steps they take throughout the day and gamify this experience by challenging friends and family.

Among the main factors that influence Latin Americans to participate in these communities are: the motivation to maintain consistency in training, the discovery of new routes and inspiration for activities, and commitment through challenges and classifications. The social component transforms individual exercise into a more attractive and motivating shared experience.

Samsung Health drives a comprehensive understanding of our health

Samsung Health, a comprehensive health and wellness app, is designed to help users track physical activities, diet, rest and sleep patterns, as well as body metrics in a single integrated platform. Seamlessly integrated with this are the latest Galaxy Watch8 and Galaxy Watch Ultra, devices that deliver personalized information directly to the user's wrist, transforming data into concrete actions for a healthier, more connected life.

These smartwatches act as advanced wellness companions, equipped with the advanced BioActive sensor and AI-powered features that offer precise measurements of vascular load, heart rate, blood pressure, mental health, stress and antioxidant levels, body composition and metabolic health, as well as advanced sleep monitoring.

This World Health Day, Samsung reinforces its global commitment to making trusted health information accessible to everyone, empowering people to better understand their bodies and adopt healthier, preventative lifestyles.

Also, during April, users can enter Samsung Health and from the “Together/Juntos” tab, participate in the #MoveteConGalaxy challenge, which invites you to have a healthier routine by doing a little exercise every day. This challenge will be valid until 04/20. Additionally, if you register for Samsung Members you can participate in a drawing to win different prizes.
