Amazon Echo Buds Can Now Track Your Workouts

Amazon has released a software update for the Echo Buds, which allows TWS headphones to track your workouts using the built-in accelerometer.

The Echo headphones can also estimate workout distance, step count, average pace, total time, and calories burned after you complete the workout profile in the Alexa app.

In addition, the new update now allows you to start a workout and do other activities by giving voice commands to Alexa. For example, you can say “Alexa, start my run” to start a workout, or ask “Alexa, how far have I run?” to check the progress.

You can check all of your past workout data in the Alexa app.

Amazon says the software update will reach all units in the coming days and will be downloaded automatically when the Echo Buds are in their charging case and connected to the internet.
