Samsung Gear Fit 2 Apps

[@MayitoTek]

Hey guys, I did an updated video on how I got spotify to work on the gear fit2. Many of you mentioned having issues installing and using it. Link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZ3Gf4Onrblsask

[@sangeetkayastha3247]

thanks !!

How can I install calculator app on my hand gadget? ( to calculate direct on watch) thanks.

[@RussNoKa]

I'd like to thank you. I have been struggling with insomnia for years, but after listening to your monotone voice I was asleep in minutes

[@MayitoTek]

hehe!! make sure you add it to your favorites, you never know when you will need it again . You are right.. Not one of my best videos ( I don't do scripts anymore because of this same reason ) .. but that this is the only way I can make something and improve. People who hide behind a keyboard and judge others are the ones that never get anything done in life, while others do things without caring what other people will think .

[@RussNoKa]

[@philnolan7193]

Great video Mario. It is your personal experience that matters the most in a review, but it is also great that you have done some research to find out where others have experienced problems.

[@MayitoTek]

+Phil Nolan thanks for the feedback Phil, that will make great content for the next video..

Wow your video keeps getting better and better Mario! very proud of you I've seen how far you've come :) Much respect from Australia

I want to buy gear fit2 pro but I have a few questions: 1. How can I download music? 2. How can I download apps? 3. Does it have alarm app and calculator app? 4. Will I get the notifications even when I forget my phone at home? 5. Can I answer the calls and the messages? 6. Can I listen to music without my phone nearby? If you know the answer in any of these please reply

[@MayitoTek]

1. How can I download music? - Many ways, one is to transfer them from your phone or computer to the watch using Bluetooth connection 2. How can I download apps? - there is an app you install in your phone which will allow you to install the apps in the watch when connected to the phone 3. Does it have alarm app and calculator app? - yes 4. Will I get the notifications even when I forget my phone at home? - tricky , the watch can connect to wifi, and can work with some apps without the use of the phone, like spotify .. but mainly your noticiations will come from the phone to the watch . 5. Can I answer the calls and the messages? - kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4LWl5JjaKenm5o 6. Can I listen to music without my phone nearby? - yes, you can listen to the downloaded songs in the watch. My fav is downloading playlist from spotify in the watch which I can listen to while I dont have the phone or the watch connected to wifi

[@7Regneva]

Cool review. Are there apps where you can record your workout. Like enter how many reps and what weight. Like an excel? Long time ago, I write on paper at the gym. Like example: Date #### Name of work out #### Weight ### Sets ###

[@MayitoTek]

sorry for the late reply.. Not that I have come across one , I plan on making another video on the apps so I will keep that in mind if I find one. The apps installed on the watch, do keep a log of you workout history, but not as detail as we normally do on a spreadsheet

[@loknath9]

Another great app which I like is gear fit2 navigation, though its not for free.

[@MayitoTek]

thanks for the info

[@willderix]

How did you get the Fit Evolution app on your gear fit? I can't find it on the Samsung gear app

[@MayitoTek]

+Blutch just checked again and was able to find it.. I went to toe "Gear" tab and just searched for it in the search bar..

[@chuckgarrity7230]

Wonder if any of these Apps will be available with iOS? At the moment, only the weather app is available.

[@MayitoTek]

I haven't tested it on an iphone.. hopefully I can get my hands on one soon so I can review it

[@TheKSProduction]

Does this work with the dexcom app? It tracks blood sugar. But idk if this can support the dexcom app.

Hi ! I just checked the gear app store and I don't see that app as a supported app for the gear fit

***can I leave my phone at home and go for a run and use the gps tracker and listen to music? also what's the battery life like on one of these?***

[@MayitoTek]

+Red Adonis it has a built in GPS tracker and internal storage memory so you can do both. You are expected to get up to 3 days of battery life depending on how it is used.. average I can go up to two days without a recharge.

The annoying thing about the Spotify app is that every time I put my watch on the charger Spotify opens on my phone.

[@MayitoTek]

interesting , I personally haven't had that issue.. will need to look into it

[@dustinhiggins6358]

i cant seem to get mapmyrun on my gear fit 2...its like i can only use default fintess apps. how can i get it to show up on here?

[@MayitoTek]

Dustin Higgins I installed the app on my mobile device and I'm the gear watch.. didn't have issues getting it to show.. I did made sure to update the gear with the latest update before installing any of the apps

[@daniellepadovano5376]

you did not mention making or receiving phone calls or texts - are these possible with this item?

[@MayitoTek]

+danielle padovano you can answer a call while it is connected to the phone, but you still have to use your phone to have the conversation

[@MayitoTek]

+danielle padovano for text there are preprogrammed messages you can use to respond from the watch..but again.. it will send it through your mobile device

[@BryanVella]

I've been looking around for a while now. Is 8fit (app) available on this watch? would appreciate if anyone can look into it before I buy this watch.

[@חייםסניור]

All the apps is free to. Use? They want account in phone

[@MayitoTek]

They are free, some of the apps may be limited on features for the free version.. Depending on the apps, they may require an account

[@חייםסניור]

MayitoTek map my run is free?

[@MayitoTek]

Yes

[@MayitoTek]

[@joycehill8746]

The steps counter stop counting my steps and the heart measure shows my rate for 5 hours ago and it doesn't change. How can I reset or restart those features?

[@shaunofthedead5059]

[@iFrashi]

mayo can I download my spotify playlists? Can I download music onto the device?

[@MayitoTek]

from what I read you are able to do it if you are a subscriber. Since I am not an actual spotify subscriber I wont be able to give you details on how it works. But I will live a link to their site with more info if it helps support.spotify.com/us/listen_everywhere/on_other_devices/samsung-fit-gear-2/ From the site: Premium subscribers can also:Use the app as a remote to play on different devices with Spotify Connect.Download music to the app so you can listen offline. Play music over WiFi.Play to Bluetooth connected headphones or speakers.Search using text and voice controls.Note: Premium features are only available for iOS users.

[@HerreraChiang]

I just got a gear fit 2, I installed Spotify from samsungs app, it installed but the name changed to "Spotify old" whenever i launch the app from the band it says " please update the spotify app from your samsung gear app, but when i go there it says it's the most updated version, any help? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but still get the message, I can bypass the message but it's annoying. Any ideas on how to fix it?

[@MayitoTek]

+HerreraChiang I have the same issue, seems like is a glitch.. sometimes it works fine and sometimes I get the exact error

[@MayitoTek]

I noticed that if I open the app from the phone first it will sync up with the gear.. when I try to ope the app first from the gear is when I get that error

[@drickrod]

Can you use Map my Run in your Fit 2?

[@chuckgarrity7230]

The Gear Fit 2 and the Pro ONLY have the weather app at this time when using iOS unless you count adding the Alarm and different watch faces. However, with the latest firm wear and using iOS, it's a great sports watch. In addition to vibrating when you have a phone call, it also shows texts that you can read ON the watch. No replies though. Min is very stable in maintaining the Bluetooth connect with the phone nearby. My holds the Bluetooth when the phone is downstairs and I'm upstairs. The GPS works great, step count agrees with other devices, instant pulse, and a few other nice features. The Gear Fit2 Pro is now reduced to $149 from $199. If you can find a Gear Fit2, it's available for $119 or less.

[@MayitoTek]

Thanks for sharing Chuck. That is valuable information for many people who are looking for one at the moment.👍

[@RNDorianne]

You can reply to texts with short pre existing replies that are in the app, and you can create your own in the app.

Last time I check Uber was not one of the supported apps in the galaxy app store

[@mohitgrewal9654]

Sir how is the accuracy ..??

[@MayitoTek]

Hi Mohit , this is not going to be always accurate.. in my opinion it did a good job in the overall tracking.. but def is not 100%... the issue that I see is that for a lot of the features you have to enter the information manually .. not sure if your question was for a particular app, let me know !

[@mohitgrewal9654]

My question was about steps count , HR & sleep tracking .

[@MayitoTek]

steps was pretty close, I never had issues with the tracker.. Heart rate was not always consistent , I even tested it out to compare it with other machines that measured heart rate... I don't think you will be disappointed, but will not be 100% accurate. I tried to use it to keep track of all the info but it got repetitive after a month and didn't care for it anymore.. It is still a very cool watch just to wear, so I still use it just to have it when I go out .

[@josecollazo3614]

How can I install the mapmyrun application in my gear fit 2?

[@MayitoTek]

+Jose Collazo first you need to install "Samsung gear" app in your phone.. once you install it and sync your gear to the app, you will be able to search for "mapmyrun" and install it through there(Samsung Gear)... once you have it in the gearFit2, you can go to playstore and also install it in your phone

[@josecollazo3614]

MayitoTek I tried it that way, but it tells me that there is an application with that name, it will be because the application I have in an iphone?

[@MayitoTek]

+Jose Collazo not sure ,but is possible.. when you connect it to a new device it will reset the gearFit2.. it really hard to tell what is causing it.. if you don't have anything important, try reseting the gear,but before you install any apps make sure to update the gear
