Simple Walk

Description

This may look like a watchface, but it's not. It's an app to record outdoor walks! This was done with a main screen that looks like a watchface, where you still want to have a "watchface" visible, yet do recording.</p><p>(if you want a more robust app for walking, see Hike or Hike2, but Simple Walk does much more than a native walking app!)</p><p>If you like the app, and want to buy me a cold drink, you can do so by way of https://www.paypal.me/jimm58</p>

What’s New

0.24 - Oregon and Rino support</p><p>0.25 - Edge 520 Plus support</p><p>0.26 - Fenix Plus device support

I'm not certain about this, but I think this way over-reports the calories burned: it showed me as expending 850 calories for a 50 minute walk at 2.5 mph. I'm a tall guy, and there is no way that should be more than about 300 calories. The 6.6 mile run I did the day before which took 90 minutes showed me as burning only 650 calories.

I only report what the FW tells me. Are you sure you're not looking at daily calories? You'll see that on the first screen. What do you see after you've synced in garmin connect?

Works great, gives all the information i needed in a clear way, just one question: where can i find de back button or how to find a way to stop (exit) the app. I have a vivoactive3 watch. Solution = *****

On the va3, back is a screen swipe to the right.

Exactly what is needed for my walks and the data shows up correctly in Garmin

Recorded activities show up as "walk" without having to edit it. Exactly what I was looking for!

Great! Use for walking with my dog. It logs my distance. Perfect.

Works great. Has a ton of options to select from. I was confused on how to set some of them and contacted the developer to ask. Got a response back WAY faster than I expected (under 10 minutes) and was able to customize my screen. It's a useful, easy to understand app disguised as a watch face. Would recommend.

Sorry, no statistics available yet.
