Discovery Vitality [2018]

[Recallza]

Looks like Samsung Health will remove 3rd party app support for all except Strava. Those of you who sync your SH point with Discovery may no longer be to do so directly via the Discovery App.

That will be highly disappointing if this does happen. I wonder how else we'd be able to sync it then? Gear -> S Health -> Strava -> Discovery?

I currently use SH for my steps. I have a Nokia 5. What other app can I use to get me steps that will sync with discovery?

Discovery doesn't accept data from Strava

From reading the article it is my understanding that Samsung is removing the ability to sync workouts from other apps to S Health except Strava.

Doesn't necessarily mean that S Health won't work with Vitality anymore.

Just my 2c.

I find the Discovery app very buggy.

My Vitality Rewards is showing 0/0 for my goal this week, even though I've hit 1000/900 this week (in the breakdown of activities, it says "achieved"). Something broken somewhere...

I find the Discovery app very buggy.

With weird interface issues. Like the digital card thing that pops up whenever I redeem a reward. What am I supposed to do with that? They seem to have implemented their very own clumsy digital card system.

It asks me for my password at weird times. And I had problems with some screens just refusing to load.

Symptom of the South African brain drain?

It looks like kids eye gym is not free this year, unless I am having a token issue? Anyone know, it was definitely free last year....

I wonder if they are replacing the goal streak with anything else?

Hope so...

Has there been any formal communication regarding changes to the rewards? I cannot find anything....

Not that I've seen other than their email to say it's been discontinued in preparation for their new 2019 awards

My Suunto is not showing up in the devices section, S Health is, and I can't add any devices. Anyone have any idea what changes they have made?
