    Sync issue

    Not sure if this has already been posted but I noticed that if I haven't synced my watch and phone for a few days that the sleep app keeps up to date but the pedometer will only do the present day.

    Does anyone use their Gear 2 as a watch?

    It seems to be OK. I burn around 900 calories on a typical bike ride according to the watch/phone and last year when I found a calculator online that I plugged my age/weight/average heart rate and time into it came up at around 900 calories, so I'm guessing the Gear 2 is pretty accurate.

    New Gear Manager

    I had a firmware update yesterday on my Neo and then the Gear update today. I haven't noticed any difference but it did say better integration with S Health was supposed to be in the update.

    A barometer/altimeter/compass would be nice like on my Casio Pro Trek.

    How about the ability to set multiple alarms throughout the day. I can't take my phone into work. A calculator would be nice also.

    You and your kid better slow it down a little before someone gets hurt.

    shealth sync

    I have a Note 3 and it doesn't even recognize the Gear 2 in S Health. It seems like they really rushed this thing out the door.

    My Hopes...Android...Moto 360...

    S Health

    I actually have been considering returning the watch. I do like it for some of the other features though and am torn between waiting for a fix and continuing to use it. Does the S Health app work properly with any of the Samsung phones?
