Spotify as standalone app with downloaded music on the S7
Here
you will find an app for Spotify which is a modded version, able to play downloaded music on the S7 standalone with the Spotify app.
Works great, needs a lot of battery life, install (deinstall original Spotify app first) it on the S7 with ADB and sideload. That’s the price!

@pilleus How’s the battery life when you play offline Spotify playlists?
-
@NickK I didn’t check this until now. I am working on the apk to change the bottom bar for better usage …

I did a short test. About 25 % battery usage per hour offline playback with bluetooth speakers connected.
-
@pilleus Just Spotify, no other apps like Suunto or timers running?

Just Spotify. Hey, it’s the smartphone app running on WearOS! Spotify knows why there is no standalone app for smartwatches.

Sweet!! Lets hope they make an altimeter to match
-
1 hour offline music with Play Music, S7 connected to Bluetooth speakers and smartphone, some notifications received
–> 13 % battery usage
Just to compare with the modded Spotify app.

@pilleus DRM free?

Downloaded with Play Music on the S7 and played offline. Nothing else.

@pilleus Why not just import directly from strava to google fit?

Because there were activities with false sports mode and I wanted to correct it before importing to Fit. I have to wait for the first kayak training with the S7, if it will be imported with kayaking instead of stand-up paddling in Suunto.

Baro trend has been updated!
Now there is a corrected sea level pressure available. Choose it in the settings and setup the correct pressure initial.
It seems that there is a little bug, because the sea level pressure is not shown as a compilation on a watch face!? I sent a mail with this information to the developer, just to be sure.

Polar Flow on the S7
ADB is your friend to install the app on the S7. Install the Polar Flow app via PlayStore on your smartphone. Connect S7 and smartphone with WearOS app. Start Polar app on the S7 and continue the setup in the Polar app on your smartphone.
The app is working, the layout not perfect for the round display.
Pause and stop work with short tapping and holding buttons on the display, because of the overlay for light and screen lock. Needs a bit of training to make it work.
Just an option, I use Ghostracer without any problems and restrictions.

With the S7 I only use OHR, no external devices.

Polar Flow on the S7 - Update
I just tried to run the actual and last Polar WearOS app on the S7. A screen heart frequency was added.
But because of the big pause button which need to be tapped in upper half of the screen it is not possible to pause or end a training. This area is defined for the overlay.
No good news and therefore unusable on the S7.
-
@pilleus I remember you had to tap to pause and then hold a big round button in the center of the screen for 3 sec to stop. Has it changed?
-
Which free compass app would you recommend?
-
@NickK yes, in 3.2.8
It’s working with problems because of the overlay.
In 3.2.9 no way to press the button on the screen.
