Very good very nice

You get what you pay for

I wasn’t expecting much out of this watch really. I specifically wanted it for the step counter. However, it does not always store my daily steps. They will appear on the watch and in the app, but for some reason disappear when I go to view them. The sleep tracker doesn’t appear to work adequately either. Indicates I’m “asleep” when I’m clearly not. If you’re looking for Apple Watch performance - this is not for you. If you want something sub par - you found your watch.

Looks good, feels good, but notifications don’t work

The watch would be perfect if it actually notified you that you had a text or call. Doesn’t vibrate or light up. For now it’s it’s just a pretty watch to tell time and I’ll go back to my plain black one that does what it should.

Not syncing

It doesn’t sync with my iPhone and now it’s not syncing at all it won’t connect

Disconnected

The watch disconnected from the app and there is not setting in the app or watch to help in connecting it so making so difficult to figure out things of which I had to keep abandoned the watch.

Great watch for tracking

Long battery life and works well on all tasks, except my sleep pattern . Unfortunately it hasn’t recorded on four days and I do not know why.

Does not connect everything

I can use all the functions except “steps” and “sleep”. It has worked a few times but the procedure in the user guide does nothing to solve the issue when it stops working.
If it sees my watch, why not turn on these functions automatically?

Rating the app

This app is good but I can use some improvements…like how to download apps on your watch…or when you go to about it says about or rate me I don’t like that bc what is I need help with something else….and I like that you can customize your watch face and it can tell you how long you sleep and if you go to notifications you can turn on notifications on whatever like phone and messages and you can get those notifications and you can get Snapchat notifications too but it doesn’t tell you from who and you can’t set an alarm bc it’s only 12:00 and nothing else so overall this is an 3 star but there is good stuff so my rating is a 4/5.

It’s a watch. Nothing more than that

1 heat let rate and blood pressure are totally inaccurate.
2. The link to the mobile for notifications used to deliver text but stopped a while back. Then last week it stopped alerting me to notifications.
3. The sleep analysis is not even close to real. I get up several times a night and use the watch to provide light as I bio to the bathroom. It says my sleep is good and I didn’t wake up.
4. It says steps but it randomly tells you you hit todays goal whilst sitting watching tv.
It’s a cheap watch that looks like it’s smart but it’s not. Think of it as a torch and a watch but nothing more.

Problem after problem

I was happy to find a fitness watch that would be waterproof and that would I also check my oxygen level and my blood pressure. The problem I have is there’s not enough in the settings to correct the watch. The date is way off, it keeps changing from a 12 hour time, to a 24 hour time anytime it wants to. The clocks time is off and keeps falling further and further off of the actual time. It’s fully charged I’ve reset it numerous times trying to get it to be accurate but it never is. if anything there Hass to be something more to allow a person to put the correct date in and the correct time. I have verified that the blood pressure part and the oxygen level part along with the pulse is very accurate but keeping the brightness up high so I can see it and having the correct date and keeping it at a 12 hour time, I’m not sure how long I’m gonna keep using this. I think I might’ve wasted my money on this. Just please make an update that will correct time like an Apple Watch would and the date. It’s not June 20, it’s November 9.
