One other version:

Thanks for the tips everybody

It seems like “still” means whenever it’s not tracking an exercise. But exercise includes walking more than a few minutes. It automatically records when I walk a lap around my office during break, so that’s enough to trigger it

I use DNS66 downloaded from F-Droid. It registers itself as a VPN, but it’s actually a DNS filter, not a VPN. It works to filter ads on most apps, and you can individually disable it for specific apps if needed.

I also use the Firefox app, which supports a few add-ons (much less than the desktop version), including uBlock and some similar options

I’d recommend one or both. They’re working great for me on a non-rooted Pixel 4a 5G

I have the Galaxy Watch 4 and I like it. Here’s a screenshot of the heart rate settings. On my current setting, it monitors continuously while exercising (including a long walk) and every 10mins while still.

It can also monitor blood oxygen continuously, but only during sleep (presumably to check for sleep apnea). While awake, you can take a manual blood oxygen measurement

I’m typing this on Pixel 4a 5G that I got shortly after its launch, and I’m still very happy with it. Can definitely recommend it, or any Pixel really - my family has used many Pixel models over the years

Oh, there’s also Floatplane with basically the same model. I don’t have that one, but I think it’s mainly tech YouTubers currently

Same. A lot of science and history YouTubers post there. And there’s a lot of early releases and exclusives like Real Engineering’s amazing D-day series. Pretty inexpensive and totally worth it
