If I was still using a Samsung phone, this change would've definitely helped me feel better about myself.

Summary

According to an article on sammobile.com, Samsung Health is getting rid of Weight, Food and Caffeine tracking and deleting all of the related data by the end of the month

Why would a health feature remove 2 of the biggest health related factors... Are they going to stop tracking activity next? 

Dirty Windows Peasants :P ?

Well I guess it's useless now. Not sure what to use now

I wouldn't say it's useless. In fact, I use Samsung health quite a bit and I have not used the weight, food and caffeine tracking.

I use it for tracking exercises (although I use a separate app for things like rep and weight tracking) like distance ran, my pulse, my sleep and steps.

 

 

It feels weird that they would remove these functions though, as I don't really see them as being anything that costs money to maintain.

My guess is because it wasnt measurable by the phone, so nobody used it.
