Hi, thank you for the video. I have a question please. Did you manage to allow the Galaxy Fit app to continue running in the background? I have iPhone 8+ and noticed when trying Amazfit or Mi Fit apps that they do not continue running in the background after double clicking the home button and sliding the app up though all settings in the app or privacy are set to “Always” continue running in the background. I don’t face the same issue with gamin connect app for example so wanted to know how it is with Galaxy Fit app. You can easily figure out that the app is not running in the background by losing 2 main features; weather updates and find my phone. Do you have the same issue with Samsung wearables using with iPhone? Thanks.
I have the iphone 7 but the moment I leave the phone in the house and go outside the band wants to reset. Can the band work when it is not close to the phone?
Hey I cannot connect the galaxy fit 2 to my iphone (7 plus). It shows on the bluetooth devices list and it says to be connected, but once i open the samsung fit app it does not show. Any insights on what i should do to connect it? Thank you!
I've just charged up my new fit 2. Is the only way to use this in conjunction with your mobile phone? Do you have to go through your phone to get this up and running or is there some other way???
ionut I chose samsung fit2, I highly recommend it, I had the chance to compare it with mi band, Samsung screen quality is very high, application is more stable and I think it is more stylish, have a nice day.
Liked your video. I'm trying to have my galaxy fit 2 recognized by the iOS Galaxy App. It doesn't see the sport band. What puzzles me: I goto Bluetooth setting and I see the galaxy fit 2
@@SHELTECH4 Thanks for taking time to answer my question. I was trying to male it work on an iPhone SE (1st Generation), tried on my with iPhone 6. Nowhere I've found that it supported on select iPhone models.
Hı ı have a question ı use iPhone se first generation ı want to sync fit 2 on iphone se. I dowmload the galaxy fit app and ı dont see fit 2 another User help me please
Hi! Does it show how many calories have you burned? Can it appear on the band like we can add from the widget just like our steps or heart rate? Or is it shown only through the galaxy fit app? Thanks in advance!
I think most of the features work with the iPhone. I don't have a Galaxy so I am not sure. But I did hear from someone that some phone controls like txt notifications and answer are more detailed and have more functions available if you use a galaxy phone. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.😟
Just got it yesterday.. why is delay starting to count steps..🚶♂️ Hold on did I heard you saying working more accurately with your phone near by? I meant I hope that's not the case for example I leave my phone behind when I go for a walk or run etc..
Hi! How are you? I wanted to ask you if you recommend the Samsung fit 2 for an iPhone 11 pro? I am quite doubtful to buy it due to the incompatibility that many of the iPhone users raise
When used with an iPhone 7 or greater you don’t get all the functions that a Samsung phone would get. You get most but not all. It all depends what you value most in a smart band and can live without
Can you tell how to turn on sound while using the “Find my phone” feature of Galaxy Fit 2 with the iPhone? The phone just vibrates when I use the Find my phone feature on my band, when it’s supposed to make a loud sound.
You may have to reset your Bluetooth. Open Bluetooth , forget the fit2 and reconnect to the fit 2. Also connect the fit 2 to its charging cradle while resetting your bluetooth.
Question: Does anyone have a Fit 2 connected with a non-Samsung device? Does the calendar notifications work (if not the device's one, then the Google calendar app)?
What i have to do when i dont have my device in choose ?? I need help bcs i have that app and i have fit 2 and there are only gear 2 and galaxy 2 pro 🙄
Does it work on iPhone 6? I couldn't connect Fit 2 with my sisters iPhone 6 but it works on my Samsung s20 FE. I update Fit 2 by Samsung s20 FE but nothing changed. Is there any solution? Thank you.
Oh well just realized that there are only 3 devices available on Galaxy Fit app and "Galaxy Fit2" isn't on the menu, only Galaxy Fit, Gear Fit2 Pro and Gear Fit2 on the list and I was trying the "Gear Fit2" option.
My experience was so much better when I had an Samsung;( Now I have an IPhone 12 and so much features are gone/useless. So now I’m considering buying an Apple Watch like Apple wants me to/is kinda making me too lmao.
Currently samsung have no replacement band for the Fit2!! Why? If you broke your brand new watch band, you can not use your brand new watch anymore... maybe months while maybe have replacement bands...
@@SHELTECH4 new and? :D new things also can be fail... xiaomi sell bands instantly.... why? I mean, this is a very important step, what samsung do not care...
Very informative video :) Any idea if the music control works with Spotify Premium? Or is it exclusively for Apple Music or downloaded songs in our music library?
Not every app is supported. In the app under notifications you can see what notifications are supported. Gmail last email should be supported, I get twitter updates and my ring doorbell notification

Is its belt suitable for oraimo tempo c band
But what can you do to connect the samsung gear fit one to connect to your phone I can’t connect it is it to old?

Yes most fitness trackers need a phone to set up. Once wet up you can use without phone although not all functions are available

Why is the band so hard to connect. I purchased it from Amazon Canada and the user manual is not available in English.
to the point and very useful, thanks.

Check your phones volume and Bluetooth and location settings. It's probably not the watch but you can double check in the wearable app as well.

You must have an iPhone 7 or newer. Try forgetting it in Bluetooth settings and discover it again.

No problem!
I want a link for the galaxy fit app because I can,t find it
Should be in App Store under galaxy fit
Thanks
So you can't quick reply to messages on iPhone? I'm guessing that's an android only feature?
Only Android
EarPods don’t work while band is connected with iPhone
How do you connect he heart rate
Add the heart rate widget on your phone to measure.
Sadly for iOS is limited I own one and recently I changed to iOS from a galaxy s20 and there’s a big difference
