You can start, pause and end your workout and follow your workout details on the watch. This means you’ll still need to carry your phone with you, but you don’t have to take the phone out of your pocket.
How it works
To start using the Sports Tracker app on your watch, you don’t need to do anything as long as you have the Android Wear and Sports Tracker apps installed on your phone.
It’s very simple to start a workout. You can do it directly on the watch (or with the phone if you wish) and also with voice commands. Google provides a few defaults (start running, start cycling and start a workout) which can’t be modified at the moment. Note that if you have multiple fitness apps installed, you need to configure which app is launched with the voice commands from the Android Wear app.
Starting/pausing/ending a workout is done on the first page of the tracking mode. You can then swipe between pages as in the phone app. Once you end the workout, you can see the summary in just one screen by scrolling down.
To follow your heart rate, we recommend using a heart rate monitor that uses Bluetooth Smart technology.

Kuinka siis kytken Sportstrackerin Samsung Gear2 kellooni? Kellosta ei löydy, eikä Gear managerista löydy.

I want standalone app for Android Wear. I want record my track without phone ((
Martin
I agree with what many users already have written here. The app needs to be stand alone on the watch without the need of bringing the phone to be really useful.

Hi. How can I install the extension for my Sony Smartwatch 2? I don’t found in google play store. There’s another place where can I doumload it?
Katja/ team Sports Tracker
Hi Arlei, We don’t support the Sony Smartwatch 2 unfortunately as it’s not an Android Wear.

Can’t see pace and heart rate in a same place. This is not very convenient.
I am using Sony SW3.

Hi,
I would like to know, if you’ll release an update, where user could personalize each screen in the wear app?
None of default ones is satisfying for me while I’m running.

Kiitos tästä! Tämän takia vaihdoin Sports Tracker Premiumiin. Muilla ohjelmilla wear-tuki ei ole näin monipuolinen. En edes osaa vielä sanoa mitä haluan siihen lisää. Kellona minulla on Sony Smartwatch 3.
Katja/ team Sports Tracker
Mahtavaa kuulla Janne, kiva että kelpaa. Hyviä treenejä!
Rolf
Very satisfied with the upgrade. A wish is possibility to integrate with Android fit.
Garry
I have used Sports tracker for years now and subscribe to the premium version. I want to know if Sports Tracker will be compatible with Samsung’s Gear Fit. As a test Endomondo seems to work fine please don’t make me change.

Este foarte bun. Cu certitudine
ben fatto
I’m so sorry but today 1st time I used the runkeeper app because it works stand alone (without smart phone) tracking with my Sony Smartwatch 3. Would be fine if sports-tracker could do the same.
Aécio Pereira
I agree.
Ivan

Thx. I have such a nice story with you guys … I’d love to stay and not go for another app that offer this option …
Katja/ team Sports Tracker

This need to. Work on s gear without having phone with you, then it will be brilliant and stand out from the rest be a use right now you are the same as Nike running edmondo ruistic

Hello!
Will you work on a standalone app for watches that have built in GPS, Bluetooth and HRM? Now we still need to bring phone on workout…
When you do that this will be very very useful.
Chen
I really miss the satellite maps on your website. I think many of the users will agree with me if you conduct a survey. It’s not consistent to offer satellite maps in your app but not on the website. Do you think so? Please!
Jalucena
Very useful. It whould be great to mark laps (vueltas) directly from the watch too. Is it possible?
Deon Joubert
That is great news. I said I would wait for you guys to release something to Wear before I start shopping for a Smart Watch and now that time has come. Here’s to the next 8 years with Sports Tracker!
Katja/ team Sports Tracker
Thanks Deon for being such a loyal long-time user! Glad to hear you’re happy about this news. Cheers!
Javi
Is it possible to use the watch stand-alone with this app? Or you also need to bring your phone? I would like to go running without the phone
Katja/ team Sports Tracker
Hi Javi, no you’ll still need to carry your phone with you as this is not a standalone app for Wear.
Jussi
When will you have a watch which can be used tracking the exercise without the phone? I would be happy to purchase that as soon as you get it. It’s stupid to carry phone with all the time especially when the phones are getting bigger and they do not like moisture.
Chris Phillips
Any plans to update for standalone? I see no reason to carry a phone and a watch, negates teh benefit of having a smartwatch in the first place. Would be great if you add this feature..!
Katja/ team Sports Tracker
Hi Chris, currently it’s not in the plans for the near future, but having said that, anything’s possible, so we’ll have to wait and see.
Michael
Any news on Apple Watch app?
Katja/ team Sports Tracker
Yes, we’re about to release it. Stay tuned!
adam
so you still must bring your phone along? whats the point of using the watch then?
Katja/ team Sports Tracker
Hi Adam, thanks for the feedback. Our users want to use the watch so that they can more easily follow their speed, distance and heart rate, without having to take the phone out of the pocket/ back pack. Very handy when you’re biking or running actually.
Batesy
Yes certainly would be.. been waiting for this for some time for that fact.
Andy
@Adam I totally agree. My workout us not to the point where I need a watch to pinpoint the exact time I started or stopped something. I want a watch so I don’t need my phone. I really like the sports tracker app and wish there was a way I could avoid taking my phone with me on a run…
