As far as new changes are concerned, the update brings some enhancements to the Samsung Health function. However, Samsung's official changelog doesn't go into detail about exactly what kind of improvements are in store. The update also bumps the security patch level to March 2022. It appears to be a minor update as besides these changes, the changelog doesn't mention anything new.
Update changelog:
- Enhanced Samsung Health Function
- Improved system stability and reliability
If you own a Galaxy Watch 4, keep an eye out for the new software update. To check for the update, open the Galaxy Wearable app on your phone head to Watch Settings > Watch software update. Or, navigate to Settings > Software update on your Galaxy Watch 4.
