App trouble! It won't open on my iPhone. The app tries to start up and closes immediately. I've deleted and reinstalled with no change.
The Vivowatch is a great device that appears to be quite accurate, comfortable and visually appealing.
HOWEVER, the app is slowly becoming ready for prime time. The app is quite plain, but more importantly it's lacking features such as...
-Create your own aerobic/aneroebic settings
-Compare calorie/step burn beyond a week
-The connection screen to the Vivowatch is slow (average 45 sec.) and visually unappealing.
-Firmware updates (of which there will be many as the device is newly released) wipe out all of the watches data...make sure you sync first
-New updates to the watch are partly app based but also must be through a Windows PC (I.e recent release of a "font pack."). Mac users are out of luck.
-New software updates are adding features like text messages and caller ID (nice features) but the app doesn't allow the user to have any control over the notifications. This is also impacting the Vivowatch claim of a 10 hour battery life.
Don't get me wrong - I love the watch - it's my delay for the next generation of the apple watch - but there are some bugs and issues that need addressing.
