Recorder

icon

This app allows you to record data every few seconds - it can run in background.

Usually you'd record GPS (but this is not required). The data can later be exported as CSV, KML or GPX files via the Download button in the Bangle.js App Store entry for Recorder.

Usage

First run the Recorder app, here you can configure what you want to record, how often, and you can start and stop recordings.

You can record

  • Time The current time
  • GPS GPS Latitude, Longitude and Altitude
  • Steps Steps counted by the step counter
  • HR Heart rate
  • Core CoreTemp body temperature

Note: It is possible for other apps to record information using this app as well. They need to define a foobar.recorder.js file - see the getRecorders function in widget.js for more information.

Tips

When recording GPS, it usually takes several minutes for the watch to get a GPS fix. There is a grey satellite symbol, which you will see turn red when you get an actual GPS Fix. You can upload assistant files to speed up the time spent on getting a GPS fix.
