****Update 06/30/2013****
Bug fixes and now allows offline use
There are a lot of health apps out there. Some simple with not a lot of features. Others a lot of features but not simple.
Just Lose it Health is some where in the middle with its easy set up and clean user interface. Just enter simple things like your height and weight and you're good to go.
JL Health let's you track calories burned, calories consumed, and calories you burn when walking.
You don't have to be a health nut.
Hey, I am on a developer's forum so I know some of you maybe sitting on a computer all day coding. That's what I'm doing now. Anyone can use it because it's that easy
You don't need to be on a diet to use JL Health, you just have to start counting.
Now available on the Google Play Store for free
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.johnlicoski1204.myhealth
My Health is out of beta and ready for public download ^^^
You need to make it easier to select you're weight and height and age. Android has built in APIs so you don't have to write it. I downloaded you app and then immediately uninstalled because of that.

I thought the buttons were an annoying idea at first. It's being replaced with number keyboard input in the next update. (Monday)
Thanks for the suggestion.
Word of advice, don't insult the people you advertise to. It turns them off from the product. I don't think I'd want to use this app if I was one of those overweight nerds lol. That said, try a popup dial for the height/weight input.

Oh that might work better, thanks.
My Health is now known as Just Lose it Health or JL Health.
People had trouble searching for My Health in the Play Store so I gave it a better name.
So now you can search for Just Lose it Health or JL Health in the Google Play Store (Both brings up the app)
As promised, JL Health now has a refined user interface at start up. Thank you for those who bared with me and kept the previous version.
Anyone who uninstalled it or has never used the app, download it. The update will be live around midnight.
Please look at the screenshots above to see the new set up screen.
Update is out earlier than expected ^^^^
Update ^^^^
JL Health finally reached 50 downloads, who wants to mess with a devs OCD and make it 51?
I am getting several notifications from "s health ecosystem" and I am wondering how to mute them. They are pointless and kind of ugly being that they have a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle of it. If you touch them they do nothing, and the explanation detail is truncated.
Anyone figure out a way to get rid of these? They seem to be triggered by data passing between the watch and the fitness app.
i have the same issue . now that i got the gear 2 neo at times it will get 70+ notifications
very annoying

I believe it's happens depending on your sync of smasung account to health app, i changed mine to sync every 6 houts and haven't gotten it yet. But yesterday non-stop i was like really!? lol
related to launcher?
It seems like these notifications are related to the fact that I'm using the Nova launcher instead of Samsung's, so I'm being warned about some nefarious third-party contact. I can't even get to S Health from Nova, but my Gear Fit seems to be trying to communicate with it. It's a bit if a nuisance that I can't get to S Health, because the Gear Fit Manager doesn't provide nearly as much functionality. I hate all this walled-garden nonsense...
UPDATE:
A footnote on the Samsung App site (use the three blue lines in the upper right or scroll down in the left nav to Device and Content > S Health): "As of April 2014, these S Health features are only available on the Galaxy S5. Soon they will also be available on other devices, via app updates." I wonder how long that will take?

Hmm, I am using Google experience launcher - so maybe it is a launcher issue. Anyone running TouchWiz having this problem.
On the note 3 you have to delete s-health and health services. side loading these cause problems with the fitness with gear app. if these aren't installed the fitness with gear app will sync with your samsung account and work fine. by installing both it causes conflict as both are more or less the same. Not sure why everyone is hell bent on having s-health as fitness with health works great. as for the notifications, that pops up when the app syncs your data to your samsung account. i have mine set at 12 hours. there is no way currently to stop the notifications only changing the time period it syncs. hope this helps.

I am having this same exact problem. Running stock touchwiz and not rooted.
Same problem here as well.
Is there a resolution to this issue?
This sucks, these are annoying. I might expect this kind of thing with a hack or custom rom but I am bone stock note 3 and this seems kind of ridiculous. Makes you wonder if anyone at Samsung actually used this thing for a week before releasing it.

I've got a Samsung S3 Frontier and want to use it to for hiking. I use All-Trails on my Android phone but they don't don't provide a S3 app. Does anyone know of an app that will let me load a trail, I can use a GPX file to load the trail into a different app on my phone but I don't see an app that also has the S3 support I need.
I'm looking for the ability to at least track distance, waypoint so it can be showin on a map, speed, elevation, elevation gain per hour, etc. The watch has all the sensors I need, I just need an app will work for hikes.
Looked at MapMyHike but it doesn't have a S3 companion app.
Any help would be appreciated,

Hi,

(can't give you the link, cause i didn't used xda much yet)
I think you got all the features you named. If you want to have an offline map, buy it or try to use some discounts.

I just asked something similar and I see you didn't get much help either. Did you use the Samsung Health hiking feature? It worked really good on the way up and didnt measure crap on the way down. I wonder if there is a way to get the hiking feature on its on widget and out of the health widget

You can use Altimeter & Barometer app to control an elevation. The app was tested by mountain climbers with success.

Finally - after 2 years of waiting - there is now a real hiking app available, that has all the features I always wanted: Locus Map Pro/Free Watch.
This works in conjunction with
Locus Map Free/Pro - Hiking GPS navigation and maps phone app (for Android) - which is a feature and map rich app by itself.
The watch app support lots of different maps (not just Google...). It supports track recording, navigation, stats etc.
You can plan a hike on your phone and then follow it on the watch.
I fully recommend it.
I used it now on several hikes and am fully satisfied - finally after trying so many other "hiking" apps.
More info on the locusmap website (sorry linke posting not allowed.

This is unusable solution, because you must have phone with you. It's not standalone application.
Have you tried Gaia GPS? It just might work with your S3. I've recently gone camping at Lower Lake and almost got off route. I would've wandered in circles for a while had it not been for this app. I downloaded the offline map of the area before the hike, and it paid off - I was able to find my way back to the trail. My friend hikes more often than me, and he prefers PeakVisor. He says this app works kind of like augmented reality - you point your camera at the peak, and the app shows you the info on it and the trail to it using your camera and advanced 3D technology.
I am trying to figure out how I can access my workouts on the web or download them to my PC...
I used the default Huawei workout app and can't seem to find a way to access the history outside of the watch...
Is there a way to export the data?

I believe the only thing you can do is to transfer (better say share) your data to wechat, QQ or weibo.
maybe if one day we can root our watches.......we can pick data from it

Ok... I had trouble with the HW Health app connecting to my watch... Then I installed Huawei Wear app and to it to sync to my watch and then the HW Health app was able to get readings from my watch...
Then I was able to share it...
Thanks... Crazy how all of the different apps needed to be installed on my phone before I could use the HW Health app...
Hi friends,
I was looking for a way to view/analyze the activities - and to create a history to see the trend after a few years.
Problem:
* Must be compatible with already recorded data in runkeeper, support new devices and software in future
* Huawei Health cannot export, so after factory reset or with a new phone all data will be lost.
* Runtastic: limited functionality without premium account
* Runkeeper: was my favorite in the past, but cannot record heart rate data and it doesnt transfer GPS data to google fit
* Google fit: shows heart rate data in the phone, but not on the web. and limited functionality (only a few statistics)
Now I found another way :good:
Use google fit on your watch. It will save all data to your google account.
Export the data with https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout - as TCX file
Install mytourbook on PC http://mytourbook.sourceforge.net/mytourbook/
change the activity desciption field >>options>>import>>TCX
import the TCX files. It can import all at once...
Great tool. I'm so happy now...It shows all the data even heart rate. I can modify, merge activies. It can show statistics...awesome.
The only thing i miss is the temperature, but I guess the HW2 has no temp sensor...
Good luck

A little bit late, but Ghostracer will record GPX / TCX on your phone or watch and automatically upload to online services like runkeeper, strava and smashrun. That way you don't have to do all that data manipulation, it just *works*
Does the Huawei health app data sync with Google fit and access the data from there?
Is any software to export this automatically and import to Endomondo, Nike+ and others? Is Endomondo heart rate sensor compatible?

No. The Huawei app is bogus bloatware.
I got the huawei watch 2 a few weeks ago and I am still trying to find the best way to record my runs and other activities. One thing I noticed is there is no need to use the huawei apps... You can use runstatic, strava or google fit directly on your watch. They will even record your heart rate. And you can have google play music running on the background for offline music.
When you return home data will get sync'ed and your exercise will show up on strava or runstatic on your phone. You can set Strava or other apps to connect to google fit service... So data will go to google fit if you have that enabled.
And, If battery is not a problem, you can even have more than one app running at the same time on your watch to track your exercices .
Of course, it would be nice to use the default app, since it seems to be better suited to the watch screen and because it has heart rate zones and training programs... But I never found a way to export data from huawei health to strava, endomondo or any other of these well known platforms.
By the way... Google fit seems to work perfectly for the gym. It automatically recognizes what kind of exercise I am doing, how many repetitions, etc and it even tells me to rest between each set of repetition.
A few updates...
Google fit is proving to be unreliable. I sometimes get different things on the phone, watch and web. Furthermore, I don't know why, but the last times I tried using Google fit directly on the watch, it did not send the heart rate to Google fit on the phone.
By now I really think the most reliable way to use the watch is to track the activities with Ghostrace or Runtastic on the watch and then use syncmytracks on the phone. Syncmytracks can send the activitiss to many other platforms... I am syncing to endomondo and Google fit.
The watch includes a 3 months trial for runtastic which I am finding perfect.
I still need to figure how to have audio feedback for interval training.
UPDATE...
I reset my watch and reinstalled google fit on my phone. Now everything seems fine. Google fit is recording my heart rate continually during the day. After a run I now get a "heart rate" graph (previously I was only getting pace and elevation). ...... Ghostrace is still better though: customizable screens and upload to strava.
Nice thread. Im having the same problem with my Huawei watch 2.
Shame how Huawei didn't figure how to cloud sync.
Unfortunately, Google fit seems to sync false data from Huawei health app.
Other helath apps are fine but they don't have the details of the Huawei health app and the training programs.
To bad thus stupied little things that are deal breakers.

One stupid and simple solution is to use both apps at the same time.. Start the tracking in strava (or ghostracer) and then switch to the default app and start the tracking there. This way you get the benefits of the default watch app (vo2max, trainning programs, etc) and you get your activities sync'ed to strava. The extra battery drain is minimal.
Everyone,
Please report the issue of the " Google fit syncs wrong exercice values from the Huawei app."
Google actually see thus feedbacks so it can help.
Go to the workout in google fit-> 3 dot menu-> send feedback
How do u get GF on watch to sync your heartrate on regular basis and also track activity correctly.
I've use HW but found if reset or change device I lose everything, I tried runtastic which seems fine, but rather just use 1 app which works properly.
I also have my Huawei Watch 2 now and even though I am not clueless but I have the following problems:
- I prefer Endomondo (to Runtastic at least) as it is cheaper and I find it better. Right now Endomondo runs on the watch but it is kind of like an extension of the mobile app only - Endomondo say Androir Wear 2.0 is not natively supported. (can anybody confirm?)
- right now there is no way to get my data into Endomondo. (Fit only imports FROM Endomondo but not backwards). Of course I can add my trainings manually but it sucks
- Runtastic is not bad, it tracks a hike well, you can also export the .gpx (or even to other formats) from the web afterwards and there enough info to analyze
- I find the Huawei Workout app completely useless (is there any way to uninstall from the watch? I haven't figured out yet)
- Google Fit and Fit Workout apps are not useless but close
- other honorable mentions are LocusMaps and Viewranger (this one the least customizable)
Almost forgot to mention: Runtastic is so far the only one being able to do AutoPause. Which is very useful !
Any tips or experience?
PS: I used to have a TomTom Adventurer and I mainly do hikes. (geocaching and stuff)
Sometime I miss the simplycity of the TomTom watch. It synced to the TomTom mobile app or PC and to Endomondo with that.

Altough I have a Huawei Band 2 Pro, the takeout process is not working for me perfectly. Before I bought my watch, I gave a try to the process, tracking a route with Huawei Health, connect to Fit, takeout, upload to Strava, which was working fine, however the route recorded by the Band 2 Pro when gets synced to Fit, looks like to lose its gps information (gets only into Low Accuracy folder and doesn't contain the position - compared to a Strava record). The map is however visible in Health (and I didn't take the phone to my route), so there must be record of the position information. Any ideas what could I do?
I have being using the procedured I mentioned for a long time now and it is still working perfectly. I start ghostracer on the watch and then I switch to the huawei app and start it (I find it better suited to the watch screen and therea are the trainning programs)... When I am back home ghostracer automaticaly sync the activity to strava and the huawei app sync it to huawei heath.
Btw... The software on the watch has improved a lot.. it now records my sleelps, google fit is better an I even think the battery is lasting longer.
Hey
Where can i see my ECG records in the Samsung Health app? Its all calibrated with the Samsung Health Monitor app, or is this the only place to see this?

ECG is a graph, if you think about it logically, theres no way to present that in the concise gui that Samsung health uses...Samsung Health is more of a concise overview of easily digested metrics, where as ECG is a linear graph, the two are not really compatible
Also figure in Samsung Health Monitors main purpose is to export that graph as a PDF, so its ideally not even meant to be viewed on the device at all...

Has Samsung made further changes to their software to keep this from working or is there something else going on? Any insights would be most appreciated. Thanks.

1st of all you'll need to download the file "FeatureManagerOn" from the XDA Google drive downloads link found here admittedly while @Dante63 is good at unlocking these apps I don't think much to the layout of his/her guides. Look for "~~~ FILES and Description ~~~" download link will be under that, it's important to have this file sitting as such (root of Android phone) /DOWNLOAD/SAMSUNGHEALTH/FeatureManagerOn before following (opening the Samsung health app)
Open the latest version of Samsung health app, mines (6.21.2.007) just in case they lock it down even more... so if you'res is newer by the time you see this and the instructions I'm giving don't work, they probably locked it down more, press the "3 dots" found at the top right hand side, press "settings" scroll all the way down till you see about samsung health, press the version number several times till the option "set features" shows up, don't mistake this for "developer mode"
Once inside set features change health analysis to dev, and set data platform to enable developer mode
While I am supplying help here I am in no way saying I've done this to my watch 4, however I'm very happy that non Samsung smart phones are able to get the same level of data. Shame on Samsung for locking this up, joke is they are running the watch and their phones off of a open source operating system they are not apple and they should be opening this up to everyone, the code the lot. as they agreed to use a open source operating system and are profiting from it so should be giving back to the community, that they rely on, I'm disgusted with this company's behaviour and mistreating of code which by nature isn't theirs and shouldn't be locked down, all Android phones can run this there's no hardware reason... They are not apple they didn't build wear os or android.
So thank you @Dante63 I know it seems like I'm criticising you're work but I'm not, it's just that this shouldn't be a requirement for this to all work with standard non Samsung phones and the whole situation has annoyed me please write down how to do the steps in you're guide I literally didn't watch the video till after 9 attempts

While I am supplying help here I am in no way saying I've done this to my watch 4, however I'm very happy that non Samsung smart phones are able to get the same level of data. Shame on Samsung for locking this up, joke is they are running the watch and their phones off of a open source operating system they are not apple and they should be opening this up to everyone, the code the lot. as they agreed to use a open source operating system and are profiting from it so should be giving back to the community, that they rely on, I'm disgusted with this company's behaviour and mistreating of code which by nature isn't theirs and shouldn't be locked down, all Android phones can run this there's no hardware reason... They are not apple they didn't build wear os or android.
So thank you @Dante63 I know it seems like I'm criticising you're work but I'm not, it's just that this shouldn't be a requirement for this to all work with standard non Samsung phones and the whole situation has annoyed me please write down how to do the steps in you're guide I literally didn't watch the video till after 9 attempts

Non taken, there is a written guide in Google drive, you can see a READ ME file, and on the thread (but briefly due to XDA characters limit)...
I made this for those who don't want to watch the video...
I'm always open for feedbacks and suggestions to improve guide and video

I didn't expect a reply, you're a legend for getting this working please keep updating/unlocking the APK files for Samsung health monitor, till Samsung see sense at least
Another app that needs unlocking is the Samsung galaxy wearos app found here, and there's another variant of the health app found here, give them no where to hide unlock everything I say including all the stuff off their galaxy store... Which is locked to Samsung phone it's outrageous!
Thanks again @Dante63

Unfortunately, core applications cannot be modded without breaking cloud services...
Hi all, got the phone and watch mods installed and now have both blood pressure and ECG. The blood pressure syncs to the Health Monitor app but not the ECG. The ECG tab says it can't connect to my watch while the blood pressure tab does. Any clue?
