You probably switched system settings on your watch, or your WOO app got updated from version 1.* to 2.* (settings were moved to the watch in version 2, and old settings unfortunatelly couldn't be copied).

To change system settings, stay on your watch face, press MENU (long press on middle left button) -> System -> Units -> Distance -> Kilometers.

Or, if you prefer to keep system setting as is, you can change units in the app:
Start "Kite WOO+GPS" -> press MENU (long press on middle left button) -> Jump & Distance -> Metric

TY very much!
Let me try to go live with it on Twitch www.twitch.tv/Pentiummania will try to do a WOO vs Surfr <- not very serious if it works if you don't mind. I am a big WOO & surfr fan too, I like GoPro & kiting ofcourse very much too.
I have a pro WOO subscription I have it only on iOS, this app isn't on iOS & watchOS ?
I managed to do a live stream with almost real time live jumps from the surfr app early this year, not that very difficult.

Hi pmania,

There is a WOO app for WatchOS - it is part of the WOO app for iPhone. There is a thread discussing it (at least last pages):

Yes, I know about it. They did good work too on the WOO watchOS version. They announced 4g Apple watches today here in the Netherlands.

I developed all watch apps for WOO, including the one for Apple Watch.

The Android "Woo Screen" app is almost same as the official WOO android app for the Wear OS - WOO just changed the fonts and graphics slightly. Other than that, they are identical.

Hello maybe an obsulite question but did this app also announce jump heights through TTS by a voice speaking it out ? I am not sure anymore because I forgot about this app, always forgot to turn another app! So last time I used it I livestreamed it too compare it. One time the competition gives me higher jump heights the other WOO v2 +v3 whatever, I don't really care anymore. Because I do more rotations and try to learn other stuff, but it is nice to let's say keep a log. Like a ship log, because here in NL we call the first meters on the water: varen! :)
BTW It is hard to life stream and also have the voice recorded on stream I know how to do that theoratically but nevertheless it are only words etc.
I could also look on woo website the part you have to pay for, but there they also don't talk about this app much or never mentioned it at all!

Woo Screen is not controlled by WOO Sports - that is why they don't mention it. It is my own app and I provide a few features there that are not available from the official WOO app:
- Yes, the app speaks out the jump height, so if you don't have a WOO compatible watch, you can use an old phone and hear the height :D .
- You can also use watches that are not directly compatible with WOO - jump info can be sent there through notifications.

Other than that, the Woo Scree app doesn't do any logging - the official WOO app already does a great job by keeping all sessions :thumb:

Thanks!
We need to kite here with a cap on our heads so I couldn't really hear it yet that good, it sounded like it spoke it out so quickly. I think the speech speed was too quickly changed it now.
BTW: I forgot to try the app more as I said already and yesterday I overlooked that it there is also an option in the app it self to turn it off and on must be exclusive or something.
