Gear Fit2 Pro doesn't work with iOS, because the required app isn't available yet

Gear Fit2 Pro iPhone compatibility on hold

The fact that Apple hasn't approved Samsung's new app for pairing the Gear Fit2 Pro with iPhones was confirmed by one of the company's forum moderators, but it looks like Samsung may have removed the moderator's message and a few others later on. With Apple's stringent policies on app quality for the App Store, it's possible the new Gear Fit app was held back on the basis of software issues (or Apple just isn't in the mood to be hasty with approving a Samsung app that will let iPhone owners use a competing device), and it could be some time before the app gets published. But at this point in time, it's best to refrain from purchasing a Gear Fit2 Pro if you're an iPhone user.

Of course, the iPhone isn't the best device to make the most out of Samsung's wearable devices, as iOS puts plenty of limitations on their features and functionality. But the lack of support for iOS right now is still a point of contention, considering Samsung is selling the Gear Fit2 Pro as an iPhone-compatible device. Here's hoping the company this gets sorted out soon.
