Hi guys, with new firmware for Garmin Fenix GPS watch, i can connect my LG G2 to Fenix witch no problems over bluetooth 4 LE. Please some more experienced dev, tell me some hints if its possible to write some app for use smartwatch functions like notifications etc. At now Fenix works like smartwatch, shows notifications etc. but only witch iphone. I want to write some app but dont want to loose time if its not possible and somebody can tell me it.
Edit: Simply ma question is. Is it such easy like i can use android bluetooth api, few lines of code, or is there some bigger magic?

Hi, Does anyone know of a really good sports type gps tracker software?
I'm a keen cyclist and i'm sure there are lots of other outdoor types who would welcome a good, easy to use application with a full feature set. Samsung have just launched a phone with this in mind, Nokia already have one so it must be a growing market.
I had a Nokia N80 and downloaded Their Sports Tracker application and it was great. Just the stuff you needed - Timers, average speed, max/min speed, altitude, climing speed etc, even took out standing time (i think). You could upload to google maps if you wanted which was fine but not essential.
The Samsung mentioned earlier has music too geared to your activity.
I've tried lots of PPC apps like tracky and trackme and GPS tuner but the just dont seem to fit the bill, they are either too heavy and complicated and use too much memory or they are too simple with not enough usefull data.
I'm really suprised Windows mobile haven't got a better app for this - or maybe there is and I just don't know it yet.
Any Ideas - suggestions?

i agree, Nokia's Sports Tracker is GREAT !! no WM application can do that kind of stuff for now for FREE !!
so developers here is niche app to develop and get famous !
I think run.gps is really great, but it's not free.
Hi, do you only check for free app ?
If not you can try Run.GPS, very nice and perfect for many sports !
Hey guys,
I'm looking for a free Run.GPS or GPSTuner alternative like GPS Cycle Computer. GPS CyCo is a very good tool and has all the functions I need but I miss the essential livemap (i.e. GoogleMaps).
Do you know an application which is free and has the same options like GPS CyCo plus livemap?
Thanks a lot!

This function will be added in GPSCycleComp...
Thanks for this information.
Think I have to read the whole GPS CyCo Thread

Hello!
I wondering if it is possible to make a emulator or something alike, for the Gamin Edge® 705 or similar GPS software's. I have some topographic carts and want to use them to my workout. And get a descent GPS training software to my mobile phone.
If this is even possible please tell me. If not, please tell me other ways to turn your mobile phone into a "training GPS".

I am using SmartRunner. It is free and runs smooth... Another possibility is RunGPS.
Best regards,

ive asked for this to be moved to proper scetion
Thx Real Justus, I will try run GPS. But do anyone know if it is possible to make a emulator or something alike, so you can run garmin software like, ex. Edge® 705?
I and many others like me want MAP support to enable features for in car reading of text messages.
My Windows phone works perfectly Google state that both 4.4.4 and 5.01 support MAP but as far as I can tell OEM's such as Samsung don't use it HELP!

Hi Guys,
I am in the market for a smartwatch, which is sleek enough to wear every day as a smart watch, but also I can use to cycle and use for navigation with GPS.
I am looking at the Sony Smartwatch 3 as it looks quite nice and has built in GPS.
However, there are more stylish looking watches I like the look of from the likes of Asus, LG and Moto.
So... Is it possible to use the GPS on my phone which will be in my pocket, and use the watch for instant navigation instructions?
I am thinking about apps such as Ghostracer for GPX files for example
Thanks in advance!
