It is not a fault to be fixed, it is excluded as an available option on GW4.
See:
Use automatic workout detection on your Samsung smart watch
Automatic workout detection on your watch will record your exercise data as you're working out. It’ll happen automatically so you never need to worry about it.

Hi to all.
I've a little problem: I go to work with a motorcycle and my S2 recognize it as a sporty activity (cycling): is there a way to stop this behaviour?
Thanks

GS, I'm with you. I have the exact same problem. Every day I have to zero out the record for that day and then I turn off the cycling tracker (hoping that it just might stay disabled, but of course it never does). I wish there was a way to permanently disable this tracker, as I seldom ride a bicycle and could easily do without tracking this activity...
There automatic activity recognition settings in S Health. Just go to settings
Sorry but I don't have this option...
It seems that you can disable all automatic detections, and that you can not select with detection disable...

I have this same issue, the only solutions I've found are:
1) Download S-Health and disable it through manage items, but that does nothing.
2) Contact Samsung for support, which I've read is basically the first solution.
I want to set my watch for all my notifications but I think it's weird how you can't disable a function like that. I also tried factory resetting my watch to no avail...
Same problem here.
I don't want to disable cycling because i DO cycle sometimes and want to record it.
What annoys me is everytime I step in my car or ride a motorbike it detects me as cycling for a few hours.
Seems to be no way to disable it.
Anyone found a fix?
I'm still having the same problem. Strangely, it only seems to happen in my truck. When I drive the sedan, nothing happens and my watch works as intended. i'm not sure what I do in the truck that has my watch convinced I'm cycling down the highway at 70 MPH.
I've had to run off auto-detect which makes me sad because I forget to log my walking and my elliptical all the time. The watch we very good at detecting these 2 activities.
For future users who end up here with a google search:
the workout auto-detection settings are not the the S-Heath (or now "Samsung Health") app on your phone, they are in the S-Heath app that's on the watch itself. In last screen, "settings"
Hi, I've connected my gear s2 with gauzy note 5. I can't find any option to turn on sleep tracking despite I can see a screen shot on the official s health app page on google play showing sleep tracking data. Can someone help me to find how.......

For now, your only option is an app called Sleep as Android. Get both the watch app on the gear store and the android app on google play. Takes some set up, uses a lot of watch battery, and still a work in progress. But it works.
There's also a stand alone app called G'night

Thanks for the help. I've tried both, sleep as android and G'night. I think sleep as android is more intuitive and informative. I really didn't notice much battery drainage on both devices with a little tweaks.
Hi!
I just bought a Gear S3 and I want to have the smart sleep feature. I tested Sleep as Android, but it isn't a standalone app and it drains my battery a lot.
I just bought G'Night app but I can't seem to remove the HB sensor cause I don't need it. And I can't put the time for example between 6:10 and 6:40.
Anyone have an alternative? Did anyone test this app? Does it get updated regularly?

Is there a reason why you can't use the SHealth sleep monitoring feature?

If I'm not mistaken, s health can't wake me up when it is the good time in the morning depending of how I sleep. Sleep as Android or gnight watches that and wakes you at the correct time in your cycle (I sleep very bad :/ ).
I contacted the maker of gnight but no response (HB sensor, s health sync, time to wake).

Is there a way to turn off certain apps in the watch like the fitness crap? It keeps telling me how many steps and how many miles I biked. I don't want that how do I disable it?

You can disable the Auto Detect feature. On your Gear S3, tap the S Health and swipe or rotate the bezel all the way to the right to see Settings. Rotate to Workout Detection and turn off every single one of those items. Hope this helps.
Hello there,
I have been trying to calibrate the altimeter on this amazing watch. I checked both on the watch and the Huawei Health app, but there is not an option to calibrate the altimeter when you are at a point with a known and certain altitude.
Anybody could help please?
This is such a simple option that would allow to make this watch way more reliable for mountain use.
Thanks a lot

Nobody knows??
Then I assume this altimeter is useless. If you cannot calibrate it, then it doesn't work in the mountain at all. It is not reliable.
This issue persist even from original first Gt watch. Was never fixed. Due almost non existent support from Huawei, I'm almost certain it will never be fixed. On the other hand I see on Honor GS pro there is an option to do so but barometer not. And it always shows wrong readings. Strange.
Whatever...at the end of the day it's China based company, what did you expect
