androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-11 06:30:24

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority In mid-June, a Samsung official hinted that the company might soon monetize parts of the Samsung Health experience, likely by placing future AI-enhanced features behind a paywall. Personally, I don’t mind paying for a service if it adds value to my life — what’s more valuable than good health? However, paying to unlock more features won’t fix the existing issues with the platform. To be fair, I don’t dislike what Samsung is doing with Health. The current expe

Best Pillows for Back Sleepers, Tested by a Sleep Expert

Regardless of your sleeping position, you need the right accessories to get a restful night's sleep. However, getting a new mattress can be expensive, so a supportive pillow might be a better option. The perfect pillow for back sleepers strikes the right balance between height and firmness. It should be supportive enough to ensure your neck and spine are properly aligned, but not so firm that it leaves you with a stiff neck.
