Powering Through the Powder With Ski Pursuit

Winter is the season people love to hit the slopes and experience the thrills of racing downhill through fresh-fallen powder. But just how fast are you going? How far have you gone? And what was that route like?

These are just some of the answers that can be found using Ski Pursuit. You can record all the stats of your latest run—maximum speed, average speed, duration, distance, ascent and decent—and then post those numbers to Facebook for your friends to enjoy. Now you can recall all the twists and turns of the slopes with just a few turns of the Gear S2 bezel.

Voxer Gives Voice to Messaging Possibilities

One of the most popular advantages of the Gear S2, making it more than just a beautiful timepiece, is its ability to improve the ease of communicating with your friends and colleagues. And with the new Voxer app, which utilizes the company’s famous blend of voice and text messaging, the Gear S2 becomes even more versatile.

Among its many applications, Voxer can turn the Gear S2 into a walkie-talkie, allowing you to just select a contact and send them a voice message with the push of a button. Voxer also lets you look at notifications, listen to voice messages, make replies and more. By expanding the voice possibilities for the Gear S2, Voxer makes it simpler for you to communicate.
