- Samsung has been spotted working on an AGEs index feature that could help gauge users’ biological aging process.
- AGEs are said to predict the risk of diabetes, heart attack, and stroke, and the AGEs index could make Samsung Galaxy Watches an early warning device.
- We’ve also spotted a UI screen for Continuous Glucose Monitoring, but we are unable to draw any conclusions from it.
We’re marching towards the launch of the Galaxy Watch 7 series, which is expected to arrive at Samsung Unpacked on July 10, 2024. While the new watches are exciting, Samsung has done a fairly good job at bringing newer features to its older smartwatches, presuming the hardware is capable of doing so. We’ve seen rumors of the Galaxy Watch 7 series coming with some type of blood glucose monitoring feature, and while that might still turn out to be true (or not, we don’t know), we’ve spotted clues on how Samsung could deliver some sort of tracking for cardiovascular and diabetes risk, thanks to its implementation of an AGEs index.
In a recent version of the Samsung Health app, we’ve managed to activate the UI for a new feature called the AGEs index. As shown in the screenshot below, the AGEs index feature is marked as (Labs), indicating its experimental nature.
