On my side I tried in the summer. The accuracy was not perfect but it was in the mountains. However I got a distance together with the swim, it was not 0 or 0.01 meters.

Yes as long as HR2VP is on a different device.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, I understand. We are working in order to make it work in the background. I invite you to join our Facebook group in order to get latest news... facebook.com/groups/912395149240081/

Yes it shows your speed on the watch while cycling.

@@bipr nice, thanks for the quick reply

Yes workout on your watch and iphone.

@@abimanyuidam11 Yes any brand as long as it is Wear OS and if you use the ANT+ USB stick with your phone.

The data field will be updated on the Garmin Connect store very soon (in a few days). In the next version, you will be able to choose what you want to display on the screen. If you for example want only HR, it will be much bigger.

Garmin doesn't allow to override native HR values. HR is saved in a developer field, you can see grafic if you open the ride that you did in Garmin connect, then select the Charts tab and go down to vhr iQ grafic.

If you prefer to replace the native heart rate data with the HR2VP data, this can be done manually after your workout. I’ve developed a Windows tool that allows you to modify the FIT files. You would need to download the original FIT file, edit it with the tool, and then re-upload the modified file to Garmin Connect. You can download the tool here: bipr.fr/FitNativeFieldsOverrider.zip

Thanks!

@@oguzocal1 Not directly

@@bipr thanks for your reply

Tanks

@@arnarsarnars Yes which device do you have?

@@bipr Garmin Edge Explorer

@@arnarsarnars Ok, the app is compatible with Garmin Edge Explore 2 but not with the first edition...

Unfortunately it is not technically possible to communicate directly from the watch because Apple doesn't allow this. We are trying to build the best solution given the technical limitations...

@@greyrunnings9725 Thanks for your support!

Thanks for your feedback and suggestion.

@@chrismac2434 Garmin is much better in terms of metrics tracking... You can connect HRM or power meter to the watch with HR2VP Watch Bike Computer but data is not saved into Samsung. However you can upload to Strava. Personally this is how I manage my training, you can track progress and training load with Strava premium. This the best alternative to Garmin, if you want to change. But Garmin is very good as well! Between the two it is a matter of taste...

@@kuau714 Still the same as in my first video. Better than previous models but not perfect on a bike... External HRM can be connected with the app HR2VP Watch Bike Computer.

​@bipr so you can download this app onto watch and then connect an external heart rate strap? How reliable is that set up from your experience?

@@chrismac2434 yes you can connect an external hrm to the watch. It works well if you enable background execution for the watch app in Galaxy Wearable on your phone. Your can pair power meters and cadence sensors simultaneously. I use it every day for commuting.

@bipr thanks for the response. That's interesting. I don't know if you saw DC rain makers review on it for biking. He reckons he had no end of trouble connecting all those things and that only one at a time is possible. I'd love to see a video from you showing how this is done! Would also love to see you go through the cycling metrics on Samsung Health like you did with the running. Cheers Chris

Hopefully still understandable...

​@@bipryep no problems understanding from my end. Is that a French accent?

@@chrismac2434 Yes French accent, I am trying to improve myself but accent is very hard to get ride of...

@@bipr 😆

@@salihkec Connection to which app on the Samsung A9+ ? Zwift ? Or Zwift companion ? Some apps have trouble because the watch is both classical Bluetooth and Bluetooth low energy and it needs to specify a parameter when connecting. Not all apps implemented this as it should...

@@p_lav Thanks for your feedback!

Yes it works with Edge 520 with ANT+. Be sure that your smartphone is either ANT+ native or that you have an ANT+ USB stick (avoid no name sticks).

@@bipr Thanks! google says my phone does but ill check manualy.

@@truphot1 Which model? My phone was a s20fe 5g, internet said ANT+ as well as Samsung support but it was not the case...

@@bipr My phone is s23fe, samsung and internet both say there is ant+ but might be same case as yours

@@truphot1 Unfortunately the s23fe is not ANT+. Samsung stopped support after S20. S20 is ANT+, all phones coming afterwards including s20 fe and s23fe are not ANT+.

There are other solutions where you have to buy an extra device to communicate with the Garmin. If you have an Apple watch, you most likely already have an iPhone as well... What I wanted to say is that you don't need to buy another hardware device... But you're right you need to keep your iPhone with you.

@@Synodai Oui c est tout à fait possible.

​@@bipr Comment doit-on procéder ? 😅 Car j'ai cette montre, et lorsque j'active sur la montre, ça ne fonctionne jamais, ça me demande d'activer la géolocalisation sur le téléphone également.

Et ça indique "aucun itinéraire trouvé"

@@Synodai Je n'ai plus la montre à dispo pour retester mais quand je l'avais utilisée, ça avait fonctionné. Peut être est-ce lié à l'application que vous utilisez...?

​@@bipr j'utilise maps.

HR2VP is compatible with Karoo 2 and Karoo 3 if you enable Bluetooth Low Energy HR broadcasting in HR2VP's Settings. Your phone, which transmit HR from the Apple watch, will be recognized as a regular heart rate monitor. As the address of the phone may change along time, you may have to pair again sometimes. With the Karoo 2 and 3, no extra software is required on the GPS.

@@bipr Say, I don't see in HR2VP's "Accounts & Settings" any option for enabling Bluetooth Low Energy HR broadcasting. All I see is Profile (who I am), Unlock App (paying for a plan & Garmin datafield), and Performance (my resting & max HR, weight, FTP). Nothing related to Settings of the Bluetooth connection. Help please.

@@johncarothers1791 Top right corner click on the Settings tab...

@@johncarothers1791 The Account tab is selected by default

I agree with you that ANT+ is a much better protocol. What I find better with Wear OS smart watches is the integration with the phone when you answer calls, reply messages... And the different apps offer many options which adds some flexibility.

Yes here is the video: th-cam.com/video/qwRfWpzvYbg/w-d-xo.html

Thanks! Feel free to subscribe if you want more reviews like this one ;-)

@@mduijm You can try but I don't think it will work in the background as of today.

@@bipr might as well just use the iPhone as the cycle computer if the screen has two be on. this is a waste

@@matthewcampbell4047 I agree this is a waste and will see in the future what I can do. But there are different features on Garmin bike computers that are not on an iPhone, and it is easier to fix a Garmin Edge on a bike than an iPhone...

@@amritv6889 Yes, this is a good option as well if you are ready to buy an extra hrm and have nothing again chest straps. In this case, if you are using the datafield, it will give you power estimations based on heart rate.

I have the HRM (polar H10) already. Which data field should I use ?

​@@amritv6889 apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/ab94e897-c1a0-4d5c-9688-89ecfb11126a the same... You can unlock the 15min limit with the ios app HR2VP.

You can load gpx with Samsung Health but for Enduro guiding, I would suggest to use Komoot. You have access to all Wear OS Playstore apps... So there are third party options...

Unfortunately there is no solution as of today... Bluetooth interoperability is bad and that's why.

I worked hard and invested money to build the app. I believe it's fair to be compensated for my work if people find it valuable. After all, most people are paid for their job.

Yes continuous monitoring was activated... A s well as always on display. Only stress monitoring was disabled.

@@bipr thanks forgot to ask does your app work on the latest huawei watches ?

@@kuau714 I don't think so... It works on Wear OS and can be downloaded only on the Playstore...

Yes HR was set to continuous monitoring... 💓

@@keped1 Did you install Garmin Connect? Is your Garmin paired with your iPhone? Do you see it connected in Garmin Connect? Another important thing: did you gran all permissions including location?

Yes to all of that. If I disable Connect IQ data field, it starts up alright. When enabling it shortly flips to Garmin Connect and return again. But when enabled it can’t start a workout without crashing

Thanks for your feedback.

Agree.. but i took the subscription to make that! ;-)

It should appear on the screen on the HR2VP field you added. Is your GPS connected to your phone with Garmin Connect?

Heart rate continuous monitoring was ON as well as sleep tracking. Continuous strees tracking was not activated.

@@bipr how long did your Galaxy Watch Ultra last on a single charge?

@@ibby81ae The watch lasted 2 days. I will see in the future if it can be more than that...

@bipr was always-on display on aswell?

@@ibby81ae yes with always on display.

@@FabOnABike 8 to 10 hours should be fine. There is also a battery saving workout mode which I didn't test till now... I'll see in the future

Apple watches are great products as well, the HR sensor is for example more accurate.
