Map My Tracks can now mesh with the Pebble watch, getting the smartphone off the handlebars.

Smartphone performance tracking app now links to smartwatch

The Map My Tracks performance tracking app for smartphones now links to the Pebble smartwatch. The Android version is available now; the iPhone version is due within a week.

Map My Tracks makes use of the Pebble’s built-in sport app to present the activity time, distance, pace or speed on the Pebble watch face.

The standard Pebble sport app can be configured to show either speed or pace. The middle button can also be configured to suit preferences. It can be set to stop an activity, toggle between pause and un-pause or to switch the display between speed and pace.
