According toTizen Help, the update’s build number is R220XXU1ATK5 and has a size of 0.7MB. It is now rolling out for Galaxy Fit 2 devices in India. After you install this update, the fitness band will no longer take you to the clock face if the screen turns off in timer mode. Moreover, the updateoptimizes motion recognition when you stop or resume exercisesand stops vibration notifications during exercises.
Another improvement in this update is with the duration of alarm vibration. Going forward, thealarm will last longer, which in turn increases the chances of users waking up with the vibration. However, this could slightly take a hit on the gadget’s overall battery life. Take a look at the official changelog below:
If you have a Galaxy Fit 2, you can install the update from the Galaxy Wearable app. All you have to do is open the app and head to ‘Band software update’. We could expect Samsung to expand the availability of the update to other regions in the coming weeks.
