I want to integrate Samsung Gear device for steps in my application, also jawbone Steps and misfit Steps. I've looked at several things, like the Samsung Gear Site, but found nothing that works for me.

There is this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27877223/samsung-gear-app-communication does that help? – Flummox - don't be evil SE Nov 07 '16 at 12:27

I don't know for Gear or jawbone but Fitbit provide a REST API to get the values send to their servers. I don't know if there is a ContentProvider to get those from the app (can't sync without internet so I doubt this would really help). I doubt you can read the values directly in bluetooth since this should be secure (SHOULD ;) ). – AxelH Nov 07 '16 at 12:40

You can read gear steps using Samsung Digital Health SDK. For that, you have to install S Health app in your phone. For more details about Digital Health SDK , check the link: [link] (http://developer.samsung.com/health) . You will find details in the programming guide attached with this site. Also there is a sample code for steps count in this site. Check the following link to know details about step count.

For connection and data transfer between mobile android device and Samsung Gear device , Accessory Protocol is defined. So, the option available here is using Accessory SDK for Android mobile and Tizen wearable.
Tizen provides HumanActivityMonitor for 3rd party developers to retrieve Pedometer step count data.
I have developed a sample app in Tizen platform for reading pedometer step count data in gear and send the data to Consumer Android mobile app while the mobile and wearable is connected through Samsung Gear Manager. Its just a customization over the sample apps available on the sites reffered.
I am sharing the code of the tizen web app along with the installer(.wgt) file. If you are not interested in tizen development right now, you may install the app directly to the Samsung gear using the wgt file.
I am also sharing the code of the android app along with the installer(.apk) file. You may try a sample transmission between the devices and do your code on android platform as necessary. I have tested the apps on my devices and they are working good, though some data inconsistency occurs.

Please read the Accessory guide and HumanActivityMonitor guide for details implementation, you would find simple explanation there.

The drive link is dead, but you can find the sample code up on the official Samsung developer page: https://developer.samsung.com/galaxy-watch-tizen/samples/companion/hello-web.html – Andrew Jan 07 '23 at 11:47
