But so far I think it’s worth the money spent!įor the price? People can't complain. I wish it would have the ability to allow certain functions access to gps so it won’t interfere with step tracking or weather updates. The app has a lot of tools in it and it’s nice. So at this point I’m toggling gps permission on and off so I can use all the features. the weather function requires you to turn on gps permission for updates on weather to push to your tracker. (what’s the point of using this if you are going to carry your phone, because then your phone is doing the tracking?) I love having the ability to use the device for weather capabilities, however, this is an area still needing improvement. If you allow the gps function to be turned on, you will have to keep your phone on you to track your steps or it won’t count them. The heart rate monitor and the sleep rate monitors work well and I liked the details you can view on the graphs in the app.
There are a few additional functions on this that are pretty cool that are not on the Fitbit! I especially like the picture taking function and the ability to skip forward, backward and pause songs on the Bluetooth connected device. My coworker has a couple of Fitbit devices we compared side by side and the interface on the device looks nearly identical. So I’ve had mine for approximately 24 hours now. Options in the app to use the watch as a phone camera remote, better alerts/notifications, smooth user interface, and better data analysis of collected information are all things that this company advertises and the app doesn’t deliver.

I think that when they update this app for this version, they need to deliver the capabilities that they advertised or make the different apps compatible with all the devices.

I think that this company needs to make their different watch software compatibility clear. This is very disappointing since I did so much research on what the capabilities of the device were. I read reviews that seemed to suggest that most versions of the watch are only compatible with some of the functions advertised. There are other apps by the same company that are advertised as compatible and having these settings, but my watch won’t connect even though I thought I was getting an updated new version of the product. To my surprise the app compatible with my version of the watch doesn’t support any of these (well it has four lame backgrounds to choose from). I got this watch for Christmas for my family to get healthy together and I had a checklist of requirements that I wanted it to do, I made sure that the product I was looking at had a camera setting, customizable watch backgrounds, weather alerts, sms/app notifications from Snapchat, and blood oxygen level calculations.
