What do you prefer on your watch: Samsung Health or Google Fit?

Hi everybody,

Today I noticed that Google Fit is available for Galaxy Watch 4!
If you go to the store on your watch you will find Google Fit. I installed it and it works on the watch!
Do you also have it and if so: what do you prefer Samsung Health or Google Fit?

Google fit for Watch 4 has been available for many months .
I had Google Fit ( Watch 4 ) installed , as well as Google Fit for Phone .
I used a 3rd party app , Health Sync app , to sync my data (Samsung health ,Google Fit and Polar .)
Health Sync app indicated that i had to uninstall ,Google fit on watch, as it was causing errors / duplication of my daily data ,

So my setup is on Watch 4 is Samsung Health ,when i go for my daily jog i also wear a Polar M Vantage M400 watch with chest strap .
I also found that in my daily exercises , my Hart Rate readings ( the Samsung Watch 4 , as well as all my previous Samsung watches ) to be , not as reliable / consistent with its readings ,

If i compare my Polar watch ,with chest strap ( 99 % accuracy , hart rate readings) to all my previous Samsung Watches and my Watch 4 ,i found that when you really start to " exercise" ( increasing your pace /sprinting etc , the Watch 4 was slow to adjust / way off ,with its Hart Rate readings sometimes ,by at least 20 bpm .
Above reason is why i sync all my data with 3rd party app to avoid duplication

good luck
