GPS Tracking with the Gear S3? - Samsung Gear S3

Is there anything that would allow me have the S3 track my movements/route and then be able to export this later to a .GPX file? I was thinking about being able to use that file in Lightroom to geo-tag photo's.
Any GPS tracker should be able to do it but as I have the Gear S3 Frontier I thought it might be able to?

I am not entlrely sure if the S3 alone can track and create a gpx file. If you trigger S-health on the S3 to follow your activity, then S-health when running on the phone will have an option to EXPORT to gpx after you complete the hike or bike ride. Now I don't fully understand the gpx format but the file exported as gpx from S-health has to be converted for my Garmin Mapsource or Basecamp program to understand it. I use GPSBabel to convert it to gpx but one that the garmin programs understand.
In the past, I've used Basecamp to geo-code the photos. It matches the time on the photo to the time of a trackpoint and tags the photo.
Here's today's bike ride, map and some trackpoints

[Q] Good locations or "places" app to mark favorite places

Hi guys,
I have been using Evernote to mark down places that I like. It's simple, just take a picture and I have the GPS coordinates already saved, and the snapshot is under a "places" tag. But Evernote does a poor job when you want to find the location again.
I wonder, how do you save favorite places down, and more importantly, how do you look them up later?
Do you save them as contacts on Google (but then how do you find them affectively?)
Do you use something like foursquare? (I don't need the whole social aspect of it).
If you do use Evernote, do you like it, and how do you find the place fast?
What is your solution, are there any good apps out there?

Any decent Note Apps for this phone?

I was wondering if there were any decent note apps for the phone. I just ordered one off Amazon. I use to use my iPod nano as a note app. I would write down notes and save them and jpgs and load them on my nano to see them through the gallery. Just wondering if there's an easy way of loading notes or writting notes on this here watch.
My suggestion: Smartnote
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.app.smartwatch2.smartnote
This is a dedicated note-writing app for Android that posts your selected notes to the SmartWatch 2 The advantage over SmartWatch Note Extension (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.simthing.weardevice.sony.smartwatch.notes) is that it syncs with the phone/tablet notes, so you don't have to re-send and delete following an edit. The disadvantage is that it doesn't sync with a web app like Google Keep.
sweet, this might work. I will have to check this out once I get my Smartwatch, thanks!

Export .GPX from Health tracking app

Hello,
is there some way to export .gpx file from Huawei Health app? It's a tracking app and the ONLY one that seems to not crash while tracking (the much reported problem on Huawei/Honor phones). But when the recording is done, I can't export the workout anywhere else, there's no option of exporting .gpx I almost thought that the GPS tracking problem is solved by using this app, but I obviously can't export the results and put them somewhere else (e. g. Endomondo, Strava etc.).
Does anyone know a way to export or extract the .gpx file from the app? Thanks
anyone?

Extract sport data from NPlus app

Hi!
I want to buy a smart watch which communicates with a specific application (NPlus). I'll buy this smartwatch only if I can get running data (GPS coordinates, etc.) because I use Runtastic app for running and I want to import data into it. Could it be a database file contains these informations. As I know there is no export function.
