Question Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Blood Pressure

[dkearns]

I just purchased a Galaxy Watch 4 (USA) and it is not recording my blood pressure. It's LTE but I am only connecting to my Galaxy Fold 3 via Bluetooth. I have Galaxy Wearable/Samsung Health Monitor and Health Monitor+ all loaded on my phone. It records my heart rate just fine. Any idea/tricks to get the blood pressure function working?

Damn. I just found this
"That FDA approval wasn't ready when the Galaxy Watch 4 launched, and as such, it doesn't have the blood pressure feature in the U.S. even though it's present in other countries ".Oct 13, 2022 :-(

@dkearns you have to calibrate it every 28d.
Did it once and it was quite accurate.
Mine it R890 connected to N986b.

Edit: sorry. Didn't know your's is so much different.

I'm new and just read this "To enable ECG and blood pressure monitoring on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 in unsupported locales or with a non-Samsung phone, you must first install the modded Samsung Health Monitor app from XDA Senior Member Dante63."

How do I locate members?

Thanks! Dante responded with a link for the mod. Not sure I am tech savvy enough to make the changes. The video showed using a PC and I got complete lost :-D
