As the topic suggests, I'm trying to configure my daughter's watch so she can wear it on her right wrist.  I can configure the watch there physically by swapping the bands but I can't find the software settings to allow the watch to operate properly instead of being upsidedown.

I've tried to make changes in the settings & Health Monitor App with no luck even after the battle with 2 Factor Authentication.  Googling has offered no solution.

Is it really this complicated or am I missing something?

Thanks for your assistance!

Hi, Please follow the below steps on your watch and check if it works fine.

1. Tap (Samsung Health) on the Apps screen.
2. Swipe on the bezel or swipe upwards or downwards on the screen, open the exercise.
tracker screen, and then tap Work out.
3. Tap on the repetitive exercise type you want from the exercise type list.

The screen where you can set the details of the exercise, such as the target, will appear. When you want to start exercising immediately, tap the exercise type.

When there is no repetitive exercise type you want, tap More workouts and select the exercise type you want.
4. Tap Target, select a target type, and then set the details of the target.
If you select Basic workout as the target, you can work out as much as you want without a limit on time or repetitions.
5. Tap the Workout screen to customize the workout screen.

6. Set the various options for each exercise type.
• Rep counter: Count the number of repetitions with beeps.
• Wrist-worn on: Select the wrist that you wear your Galaxy Watch Active2 to improve the counting accuracy.
• Screen always on: Set the Galaxy Watch Active2’s screen to remain on during workouts so you can view the workout screen.

So, you can't wear your watch on your right hand and flip the screen so the buttons remain on the left side of the screen?
