Major update for S Health targeting US

On Tuesday, Samsung confirmed a major update for S Health that will help WebMD and Amwell developing the next generation of healthcare. This update may feature a video option for the users so they can contact their doctors via S Health. They can also review their symptoms alongside with their doctors. The users will be also able to make payments by using their credit card number. With the 5.0 update for S Health in South Korea, some of the users are already able to use this features. The next target for bringing this feature might be the United States.

This update is also allowing users to browse their medical history and call 911. It is also rumored for this feature to has voice command options for S Health, but nothing is yet confirmed. There is also no confirmation about the release of this update in the US, but it may well come with the Galaxy S8. The device is for now set for release on mid-April.

The application update will also hit other Galaxy devices, not coming exclusively for the Galaxy S8. It may also hit the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. Samsung though, are not the only company that takes interest into healthcare applications. Google and Apple are also be doing the same, and trying to bring the healthcare applications into use. We hope that more information will come soon and these projects about realizing healthcare applications will become real. They can be of a great help for any user and can ease the work of the doctors.
