Samsung teams up with Under Armour for enhanced fitness apps

Samsung today announced that it has partnered up with Under Armour for enhanced fitness applications that bring together the best of Samsung's wearable device technology with Under Armour's suite of robust fitness applications. As part of this partnership, Under Armour is going to develop four of its best health and fitness apps for the Gear Fit 2, Gear S2 and the Gear S3 so that fitness enthusiasts can have access to all of the features that UA's health and fitness platform offers and also provide them access to UA's digital community.

The apps will be available as part of Under Armour Connected Fitness suite including UA Record, MyFitnessPal, Endomondo and MapMyRun. All apps will offer features exclusive to Samsung's wearable devices so users will have an added incentive if they're sticking with Samsung's devices.

Samsung Gear Fit 2 owners can access the UA Record, MapMyRun and MyFitnessPal apps starting today while Endomondo will be available later this month. The Gear S2 and Gear S3 will get this suite of apps in early 2017.
