Moto Body

[Teejai80]

Motorola this morning pushed an update to moto connect. They also made moto body it's very own app.

We get enhanced heat rate detection, something most moto 360 owners have learnt to forget about. For me it does pick up my heart rate a little more consistently, however, it's far from 100% of the time.

With the new app is also a new watch launcher.

The phone app brings a drastic change and finally some useful information. You will need to fill in your personal details again. Moto body now also syncs with Google fit. This will be interesting, hopefully we don't see double up figures, with the built in fit.

Graphs, graphs and more graphs. We now have graphs for everything.

This is something I have wanted from the start and it's great to see Motorola putting in a great effort on the health front.

I have tested this on my moto 360, however, not sure if it is just limited to that watch. If you have an Android wear device let me know if moto body works on your watch.

I have enabled the option to sync Moto Body data with Google Fit, something I have wanted from the start (using only Body on the watch because Fit is a battery hog but having all the data still showing up in Fit). But as of now, the Moto Body data doesn't show up in Fit. Am I doing something wrong or does it only sync the data starting from now, but not the previously recorded data?

Have you set moto body as the activities in Android wear?

Just checked mine and it is showing up already.

Yes, everything is set up accordingly. Double-checked on the watch and on the phone.

But seeing that it does indeed work is a good sign. I will look into it again on my end. Thanks!

Yeah I just thought that data is probably from 30mins ago if not a little more. Maybe it's just slow, you could always try a sync as well.

Does the new Moto Body have a place to enter your weight?

 

[Teejai80]

Yep it sure does. In settings with height as well.
