Does anyone know how to install apps on gear fit? I thought It would have a app store like the gear 1 but I can see it in gear fot manager

There is now a Gear Fit forum. In the future, please post here.
I did know in advance there would be few if any apps.
Hopefully a few fitness apps will arrive in time.
Guys, it would be nice if we have a continual app that tells when apps work for the gear fit. When posting, please list what the app does and give it a category (fitness, news, etc.)
My list thus far:
Strava- fitness app. It starts and stops a run and shows your time, but the HR monitor does not work. Also note it will not display vertical.
Sleep Genius- first version failed to do anything, but they updated. I tried to use it last night, but by the time I woke up, the app stopped tracking sleep.

How the heck do you even install apps on it?

it's not an android OS ... so you cannot actually install apps.

For strava just install the app on your phone, you should then see an extra icon on the fit called app connect with an option to turn strava on in there
There are a few news feeds that are out for the fit now. I just tried Appy Geek for fit and News Republic for gear fit. You have to download two apps for both..... The fit app and the actually program. Haven't spent to much time with them though.

Wow, I didn't know this was possible. Is the SDK private or can anyone make these apps?
Installed Appy Geek Gear fit, works well.
Few people commented they like vertical, me I can not stand vertical.
These apps open the App on your device then uploads the content to the Gear Fit.

How is it even possible to read it in the horizontal mode?
@waxedstrong - This could go in Themes and Apps as well. Maybe PM a mod?
News Republic & Appy Geek on Samsung Gear 2 & Gea…: http://youtu.be/knI3N4cIEVA
Here is a video of News apps for Fit and G2.
And i think it would be usefull if you could control you smartphone camera with Fit. For example when you set Timer to take picture for yourself or a group of people when there is noone who can do it for you. You could just tap your fit to take for example 5 pictures.
This would be popular among "selfists"

app connect
Maybe I am missing something, but I can't find the app connect on my gear fit. Does it have to be activated or turned on somewhere?
Just download for example NewsRepublic and Newrepublic for Fit and it will show up on your fit.

There is a calender app that just popped up in the play store. Works decent if you are needing a quick calendar and want to too look at events. It does look like you can only use it in horizontal mode which makes sense bases on the layout.
Check out "Gear Fit Calendar"

Golf NAVI+ for GearFit on the google play store
looks good and uses GPS to track how far you are from the hole
Just write "SAMSUNG_CUP_ENABLED" in the play store and it should give you list of all supported apps.

I am not sure about other fonts, but Gear Fit use the same language what your connected phone. So we can think that support for many languages have done correctly.
To be sure (if no-one can help here) go to store and test it before you buy it.
Hi,
I Just bought my Gear S.
Is there an app that allows you to reply to Whatsapp notifications?
Thanks.

Use this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pacosal.gear.notificationsgears
It works ok!
Gear Notification Extender, as per gottahavit, is the best one out there.
whatsapp app for gear s
wish there a whatsapp app for the gear .. that you can replay for the gear without the need of the phone
Notifications for Gear S work only on Android 4.4.x not on 4.3
I have both apps and disabled one and it doesn't allow me to reply In whatsapp at all. Tell me what's going on. . Using note3
uninstall both (with clear cache ) and re install only one! i tried only the PY version and works fine.
I've been using Notifications for Gear S and have had no issues.

I meant the facebook messenger android app. It should let you reply from your watch as long as you are getting notifications on your phone from messenger.
