For example, the Watch Active will get a centralized activity tracker that uses color codes for displaying things like steps taken over a day, whether the user has moved around in the last hour, and how many minutes they have worked out over the course of the day.

The Galaxy Watch Active will also make improvements to existing fitness features, such as heart rate tracking. With automatic continuous heart rate tracking enabled, the watch will alert the user if their heart rate goes above a certain threshold when they’re inactive for more than 10 minutes. The watch should also be able to automatically detect more types of exercises.
