Hi all,

I have an idea of an App for my Garmin FR235 watch. For that i need an Android companion app.

Now my problems.

I have install on the watch the Comm app from the SDK samples. But there are nowhere an Andriod companion app sample. Most of the links in the forum (older as 1 year) are death.

With Serial Bluetooth Terminal (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.kai_morich.serial_bluetooth_terminal) I can establish a link over BLE. I get several possibility for UUID and non gets my the text that send from the watch.

The companion app, i will write in MIT app inventor (https://appinventor.mit.edu) or Kodular (https://www.kodular.io).

I use the BLE extention (http://iot.appinventor.mit.edu/#/bluetoothle/bluetoothleintro) in App inventor , but can’t get even see the watch with the simple example code.


Have any of you try to write a companion app in app inventor? Working code?
