You don’t have to bring your phone with you during a recording, except if you need GPS data for your record. From the moment the device is connected to your Hexoskin Shirt, the data will start recording directly onto the Device.
However, if you choose to keep your phone on you during your recording session, you use the Hexoskin App to tag an activity during a recording, which will allow you to contextualize the recorded data. To learn how to proceed, refer to this link. The mobile app will also allow you to visualize your data in real-time and to conduct fitness tests.
If you choose not to keep your phone on you during your recording session (i.e. no access to the Hexoskin mobile app), you can still get the relevant metrics to your activity (for instance, distance travelled for a running activity and number of steps for a walking activity). After data synchronization with Hexoskin OneSync software, if you wish, you can isolate a specific range of data to tag your activity in the recording of your choice directly on the Dashboard.
