Galaxy S24 Ultra Users Experiencing Circle to Search Issue
Circle to Search is an AI-powered feature that enables users to search for anything that they view on the screen. Initially, this feature was available on Galaxy S24 devices, but unfortunately, it seems that the feature is not working as it should.
According to reports, some users are claiming that when you use the Circle to search, it is not able to provide accurate results. As per SamMobile, “It looks like there aren’t many great matches for your search.” However, when the phone was reset, the issue was temporarily fixed, but after a while, the issue reappeared.
Another user noted that it has also suffered from the same issue. Later, it installed a previous version of the Google app, which is directly connected to the Circle to search. After installing that, it has recovered from that issue. It indicated that the problem specifically arrived with the latest version.
However, it is also worth noticing that the issue is not appearing on all the units of Galaxy S24 series devices; even after updating the Google app to the latest version, some users are not facing any issues.
If you are also one of the users who is facing the issue, then you can use the above-mentioned methods that may help a little bit or temporarily, but if you want to get rid of the issue permanently, then you have to wait for the next significant update. However, the company hasn’t addressed the issue until now. But we assume that it could send the update to the device in the next few days.
In a meeting at Samsung Medical Center in Seoul, Dr. Hon Pak, SVP, and head of Samsung’s Digital Health Team discussed AI, wearables, and their ability to revolutionize healthcare.
The discussion in the meeting emerged around two key themes: first, how advancements such as generative AI could be harnessed to improve healthcare, and second, Samsung’s ability to contribute to the future of healthcare was a key focus, possibly due to their ongoing innovations.
Professor Myung Jin Chung, Director of the Samsung AI Research Center at Samsung Medical Center, highlights the necessity of “lifelog” data assembled by wearable devices for a better understanding of the patient’s medical history. According to him, the future of AI is to extract this information straight from the user’s daily life and offer a better understanding of their health status.
A cardiologist, Dr. Blum, states that it will be better to continue health monitoring through smartwatches, which is key for early disease detection. He also highlights scenarios such as high blood pressure and atrial fibrillation where previous intervention is essential. He believes that smartwatches can offer valuable data for doctors to understand the root causes of the disease whereas AI helps to analyze this data and translate it into actionable insights for patients.
A diabetes specialist, Dr. Klonoff, punctuates the growing use of glucose monitoring, not only for diabetics but also for those pursuing a healthier lifestyle. He also considers it an essential as well as powerful tool when combined with other health data such as sleep, blood pressure, and activity. It is expected that this data, analyzed by wearables and AI, could offer a better understanding of overall metabolic health.
Recent reports reveal that the South Korean giant is also working on the implementation of wearable technologies capable of reading the glucose levels of its users. Apart from this, the giant is also deciding to develop non-invasive solutions for blood glucose monitoring, which would lead the company to get ahead of its long-time rival Apple in this area.
