Endomondo adds support for Samsung Gear Fit and Gear 2

The Endomondo Sports Tracker app is getting support for the Samsung Gear Fit and Samsung Gear 2, allowing owners of 17 Galaxy smartphones to link their smartphones with Sammy’s wearables.

Paired with the Gear Fit or Gear 2, Endomondo allows users to start, pause or stop a workout without reaching for smartphones. Data such as distance, time exercising, calories burned and more can be displayed, and the built-in HR monitor is supported on Gear 2. In addition, users can also set the smartwatch’s display to be light or dark for easy viewing.

“Our goal is to make Endomondo the leading companion app for fitness fans, so syncing with Samsung devices is a logical part of our ongoing development for wearable technology entering the mobile fitness space,” said Mette Lykke, Endomondo’s CEO and co-Founder.

Gear Fit and Gear 2 support is part of the latest Endomondo Sports Tracker app, which can be downloaded free from Google Play. Gear 2 users must also download the Endomondo companion app through the Galaxy Gear Manager.
