Benefit:

{ }Moto Body:Provides tools and trackers to help inspire healthier

habits

Moto Body keeps track of your steps, distance, and heart rate along with the calories you burn. After analyzing my daily activity for a couple of weeks it

has provided me with a daily target for activity and steps. It has inspired me to be more active and walk more. (This is great considering I have a desk job.)

{ }Remote Shot:

Remote for the camera on your phone

I like Remote Shot for Moto 360. It costs $1.99 but I think it is worth the price. I have had no issues with it so far. The features of the app include; camera preview on the Moto 360,

ability to take a picture anytime (even is the screen is off), ability to change settings on the watch, ability to switch to the front and rear

facing cameras, and timer. You can launch the app from the apps/settings menu on the Moto

360.Take It Personel-ly

{ }Play Music: Remote control to play music on your phone

Tap to turn on the watch and then scroll left from the right side of the screen to access the apps and settings menu. Click on ‘Play Music’. It will then give you the choice of playing the music on your phone or wear

device.  (The Moto 360 does not have built in speakers so select phone.) It will launch the Google Music on your phone and will begin playing back where you previously left off.

You can pause, play and changes songs with the remote feature.

{ }Un-dismissing notifications

After swiping the notification to the right to dismiss it, if you then realize that you need to undo your action, quickly swipe from the bottom – up. You will see the

dismissing action appear on the screen. Tap the blue dismissing button before the

white bar shows the action as being complete and you can retrieve the

notification back.Take It Personel-ly

{ }Developer Mode:

Using developer mode on the Moto 360

Go into the settings.  Scroll down to and click on ‘About’.  Scroll down again until

you see the Build Number on the screen.  Click on the Build Number 7 times. 

Return to the Settings menu and Developer Options will now show. You can click on it to access a variety of developer

only actions.Take It Personel-ly

{ }Lost Phone:Find your phone

There is a great feature now with the Android Wear update called ‘Find my phone’.  Tap the Moto 360 screen to

wake it up, and then scroll left from the right side of the screen.  Scroll down

and click on ‘Find my phone’ which will then launch a very obnoxious ring on

your phone and trust me, you will want to find your phone fast to turn it off.
