Now that we are familiar with how to use the Gear Fit 2, let’s talk about some accessories that can be used with the phone.
Using the App
Now that you have your Gear Fit 2 connected to your phone via the Bluetooth connection, you can use the app to sync your watch with your phone. Simply select which watch you have, and then tap on Sync. This takes a few seconds to happen, so make sure you also have your smartphone nearby so you can check on your watch.
Once it does happen, you can use the app to view data from your watch. You can see data such as heart rate and exercise levels, or data such as calories burned during a workout.
