New Samsung Galaxy devices join Google ARCore family
Google’s ARCore SDK makes it easy to develop Augmented Reality apps but also ensures a consistent experience across all devices. For this purpose, the company verifies devices with a specific process that ensures camera, motion sensors, and CPU operating as expected. For example, an ARCore certified phone has access to the 3D Animal Library at Search and Playground and has been tested for effectiveness with these services.
Most of the time, users take ARCore support lightly – if you have a good enough phone, you can just assume it will work. But that doesn’t make it any less interesting to see changes coming to Google’s list of officially supported devices, sometimes allowing the name of future hardware or reminding us of uninstalled calls.

Recently, Google app developer released another device list, which is fully certified to comply with Google’s ARCores guideline. In the certification, Samsung Galaxy users have a good experience with your AR application. This is primarily related to sensitive motion tracking, which is done by combining the camera image and the motion sensor input to determine how the user’s device moves through the real world.

To ensure each device, the Google app developer check the quality of the camera, the sensor’s motion, and the design of the device to ensure that it works as expected. Also, the device needs to have a powerful enough CPU that integrates with hardware to ensure optimal performance and real-time performance statistics.
Google app developers are constantly working with manufacturers to ensure that Hardware and their design meet these requirements. At the same time, they work internally to ensure that ARCore integrates well with every model we guarantee to provide the best user experience.

Samsung Health will drop support for some older Galaxy phones. The input comes from an APKTeardown, uncovering an upcoming Notice to the platform. Most users will remain unaffected by the change in requirements set to apply in the future.
The most recent version of the Samsung Health app isn’t supported on much older Galaxy phones. One UI’s Health app version 6.27 is no longer available for devices running Android 9 or older. AndroidAuthority noted that the change was already rolled out late last month.
“You may still use Samsung Health, without upgrading Android OS, but will only be able to use limited services and features without further support,” reads an excerpt of the notice.
Galaxy phones running Android 9 or older won’t be supporting Samsung Health anymore. It will prevent users of phones like the Galaxy Note 9 and S9 from using the Health monitoring app. The app’s minimum OS requirement has been bumped to Android 10 or higher.
Notably, the change applies to the latest update to the app. Older versions still working on phones with Android 8 and Android 9. The old version may continue to work, but users should forget about official support in case of bugs and no new features will be provided.
Samsung smartphones like the Galaxy S8 series and older, Galaxy Note 8 and older, and a host of older A and J series won’t receive an updated Health app. Many of you may have been using your old Galaxy as a secondary device, so it isn’t a concerning matter.
Back in 2021, the South Korean tech giant revised the Health app’s OS requirement. That time, the company ditched support for Android Marshmallow and Nougat devices. We guess that the next minimum OS provision might arrive in three years.
