From what 7 owners of the Withings ScanWatch Nova reported between July and October 2026. Earlier generations are not counted.
Owners treat the ScanWatch Nova as a good-looking everyday watch first. One owner wears an Apple Watch for exercise and keeps the Nova on for work, dressing up and general health tracking. One owner who moved to it from an Apple Watch Ultra and a TAG Heuer Connected decided to stay with it.
Where owners struggle is workouts and data. Two say heart rate during exercise is unreliable, one sees the watch and the app disagree sharply on calories, and another lost Active Energy syncing to Apple Health after it had worked for months. One owner wants a more flexible band than the steel bracelet, and another lists missing basics such as a configurable sub-dial, notification history and music controls.
It is meant for buyers who want Withings health tracking in a dressier diver-style watch and already have, or don't need, a dedicated workout tracker. Anyone hoping to use it as their only training watch should note the heart-rate reports.
