Sony Lifelog App Gains GPS Support for Android Wear

Sony_Lifelog_SmartWatch_SmartBandSony has updated their Lifelog app, bringing with it GPS support for Android Wear. Released earlier in the year, Android Wear is the latest OS iteration from Google that’s meant specifically for wearables like smart watches. Following the announcement of the new OS, the Sony SmartWatch 3 was released, one of the first devices with Android Wear. The SmartWatch 3 is also one of the very few devices on the market with built in GPS which allows you to leave your smartphone at home while still being able to track and log all of your movements. Now, Sony’s Lifelog app can take advantage of this feature as well, completing the circle.

Details after the jump.

With the Sony Lifelog app going from version 2.3.A.1.10 to 2.4.A.0.16, the app is capable of taking into account GPS data which the SmartWatch 3 can track. This helps give you a more balanced look on your day with the flexibility of leaving your phone at home or in your car. The update also includes ‘Encouraging Notifications’ which prompt you one you’ve crossed 80% of your goals and encourages you to finish it. Other enhancements include typical bug squashes and improved sync for historical data.
