Endomondo released an update on Google Play today that now supports the Gear Fit. Can someone smarter than me tell me if its possible to make this app recognize the Gear 2 (Neo)?
Endomondo support
- Thread starter lordmorphous
- Start date
I read that the just announced version only supports SS Fit. Article also said next release would include SS Gear 2...so you'll have to wait.

I looked but must have missed that article. At least there is still hope. Endomondo is my favorite sports tracker app.
enodmondo released for gear 2 neo
today, i installed endomondo on gear 2 neo. i was waiting for it for 2 months.
it works, but with flaws:
- after the screen turns off, when you flip the hand to turn on the screen, you can only see the watch; to see the running exercise you have to use task manager or to click the app icon again, but this is not ok, requiring another 2-3 steps, not ergonomic
- the heart rate works only 'till the first screen off, after that it remains blocked at the last value - fixable only by restarting the app on the watch (and resetting the exercise)
- the customization is not available for the moment (the phone app has settings for Gear Fit only) - probably it will be solved by the next update
i was about to sell my gear2neo, but this release just changed my mind. i hope they fix the bugs so we can enjoy it.

Onihay:
Do you have a SS phone?
I'm sure a lot do not and we will need to learn how to download the widget and install on the Gear2. I'll research it
Now the problem is that it doesn't work with the Endomondo Pro app. And the free app doesn't allow for custom intervals. ?
Scratch that... The free version is picking up my custom intervals. All is good!

On my Note 3 works fine, but on my K Zoom i can't download/install Endomondo on my Gear2Neo. Is it incompatible?
Any idea how to make it work?
Edited 25.09 - i know solution - need to edit build.prop file and change model from sm-c115 (kzoom) to for example S5 (which is sm-900f)

Regarding the issue of the screen turning off. This is a setting on the Gear 2 neo under the gestures. You can tell it to go to the clock screen or the last viewed screen. I changed my to the last viewed screen and now I can see the app that was running with no issues. I have also seen issues with the heart rate monitor but that is also with the stock exercise app as well.
