Hi everyone, it’s Fjordstrm. I have a new updatefor you guys for your Samsung Gear Fit 2 with iPhone compatibility. The lastupdate was from December 2017, so about five months ago, even six months ago, andthank you all guys by the way for watching my videos and for reading myblog posts. This blog post has been very popular the past months, so thanks againand thank you also for commenting on my videos and for sharing my videos. Well,today there’s a new update for the Samsung Gear Fit 2, today’s May 2 by theway, so I’m really happy that Samsung’s still paying attention to this thingbecause this yeah this device is almost 2 years old, let’s say?Yeah, this summer it’ll become 2 years old; last year they had the Samsung GearFit 2 pro and maybe that’s why they’re also still expanding with theirfeatures for this thing. Anyway, this update is I think for all Gear Fit 2owners, not only ones for iPhone users but also for Samsung Gear Fit 2 ownerswho have an Android phone, so I think this is interesting for all of us.So, what’s new?Well the first thing we’ll look at, is exercise. Let’s tap here on exercise…They have this layout right now, so you have “WORK OUT”…And then you can choose your activities, I’ll just choose running and so of course it’lltry to get my heart rate and also GPS will pop up here butit’s gone right now because my flight mode is on,but GPS will go on as well. Then you can set a target and you can set yourworkout screen beforehand. OK, I’ll tap on location to turn it on and here we goGPS is trying to find my location, so this kind of layout is actually new andyou can customize your workout screen beforehand. Before you could do it during yourworkout but it wasn’t really that handy especially while running, you can’t really…It wasn’t really that user-friendly, but now you can choose itbeforehand and it will be saved as well, so you could use your speed, how longyou’ve been running already, and your beats per minute… and you can just setit up the way you like it, so for example I wanna have my time here, and then my beats perminute here, my heart rate…You can also choose other kinds of.. There are really many choices here. The amount of calories… so this is anice addition. It will be saved and you can getting can start your workout, so if I tap on Start Running, then it’ll count down like usual with a vibration… and here we goThis layout is different as well, so you have your your target here at 30 minutesand this bar will start like counting down how long you’re runningalready, so this is nice Then here, you have your screens that screens you’vechosen earlier in the previous menu. This is nice. In their changelog, they call it “better visibility” so that is really thecase: it looks much easier to read while, especially while running.Okay so I get out of it… Then tap finish… And then it’s saved. As usual, you can get your your summary and the map if you have an Android phone. Alright, then what else is new… well nice new addition is you have this screenhere, this here is new. Before, you just had your circle with everything that wasunder it, but now you have a division between running, so like really activeminutes, then your walking minutes, your normal active minutes and then your resting period, so currentlyI haven’t been resting and if I would tap on this then I get my normalnormal timeline like it was before, but every day, like if go back toyesterday, every day has like a summary. Like yesterday was a very lazy day,it was a bank holiday, so four hours of resting… xD Let’s go back to the home screen,so this is a new screen.That’s not the only thing… I have to add new screens,because there are new screens, or widgets as they called in the changelog.Calories has received, this already existed before, but this has received anew look… like a new clean layout, then we have Exercise as well a new cleanlayout, but what is new here… Okay food, it also got a new layout so if I would add it… I don’t really register my food but you can add here and then choosebetween dinner, breakfast so this is slightly better now, I mean moreelaborate… Let’s have a look: Health Summary seems very good so if I’ll tap on that then you can seemy health summary… So if you prefer this over the circle they can add this toyour home screen totally on the left but if you haven’t noticed, you can now justtake it and drag it into the right order. This has been possible since the update from December. This one here, “Multi-workouts” is a very nice feature.Oh, I can even edit it! That’s cool…So you can add like… It’s like a quick start for running,cycling, another workout… you can add other workouts like step machine…So from now on I can just swipe to the rightchoose running and then start running. So this is a very nice shortcut thatyou can add through the widgets. Then we have Togetherthis widget already existed before but yeah… The rest hasn’t changed… We have nice widgets available on our devices. So what else is new, well, I had to quickly take pictures of the changelog before it started updating by itself, I’ll just quickly translate what it says…connected to the Samsung health app tohelp you lose weight or to help you So this has been an updatefor the Samsung Gear Fit 2 and also the Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro for iPhone users, oractually also just in general for all users.
