New update brings integration with Samsung TVs to Galaxy Watch 5

This update was released to the Galaxy Watch 6 series a few days ago.

Galaxy Watch 5 gets Samsung Health workout integration with 2024 Samsung TVs, Smart Monitors, and projectors

The new software update for the Galaxy Watch 5 and the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro comes with firmware version R9x0XXU1BXB7 and has a download size of around 244.14MB. It brings the March 2024 security patch that fixes dozens of security vulnerabilities. The update also brings the ability to display health and workout metrics on a Samsung TV released in 2024 featuring Samsung Daily+.

With the new feature, when you follow an online workout on a Samsung TV or Smart Monitor, you can choose to display your heart rate, calories burned, and other workout data from the Galaxy Watch 5 on the big screen. This way, you can stay in the perfect training zone. This feature also works with Samsung's lifestyle range of TVs and projectors which were launched in 2024.

How to install update on your Galaxy Watch 5?

To install the new update on your Galaxy Watch 5 series smartwatch, open the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone, head over to Watch settings » Watch software update, and tap Download and install. Not every Galaxy Watch 5 user will get the update on the same day, so be patient and keep checking for the new update once every few hours.
