In a Monday announcement, navigation-turned-fitness-wearable manufacturer Garmin has revealed that it has made a new addition to its Vivosmart line of activity trackers --- the Vivosmart HR+.

The new Vivosmart HR+ activity tracker announced by Garmin is essentially an upgraded version of the company's Vivosmart HR device launched last fall. The new device notably brings the GPS functionality to the Vivosmart activity tracker lineup.

The newly-launched Vivosmart HR+ activity tracker with GPS is priced at $220; and it is now available now through the Garmin website.

Though most of the capabilities of the new Vivosmart HR+ activity tracker are similar to that of the Vivosmart HR, the addition of GPS gives the device the capability to keep a more accurate track of distance and more effectively plot running routes on a map when the device is linked to the Garmin Connect mobile app.

Other than the noteworthy addition of GPS, the new Vivosmart HR, like its predecessor, comes with a touch-screen display, and includes heart rate monitoring as well as the ability to track calories, distance, steps, and floors climbed.
