“Can I see stats from the MapMyRun app running on my cell? I know it will receive notifications but will stats from other apps appear? On the Pebble it reads out total time, distance and current pace. Can I see similar stats on the Vivosmart? Thanks!”

The vívosmart does not function as a display relay for third-party app data. It will, however, use Bluetooth to display notifications that you allow via the notification settings on your compatible smartphone. This can include notifications received by the MapMyRun app, but the vívosmart does not stream or display live data being calculated by that app. To clarify, the vívosmart calculates daily steps, distance, heart rate (when wearing a compatible heart rate monitor) and calorie burn based on your user profile and arm movement; it does not use GPS. You can record individual timed activities throughout the day that when uploaded to Garmin Connect will appear separately (but are included) in your daily calculations. -LB
