DON’T UPDATE TO 5.4

6 of us are on a group ride. We spent an hour messing trying to get them paired. There are some many bugs in the new software. We cannot get them to all pair. It used to work so simply but now it’s a mess. The cardo forced us to update to 5.4 saying you can’t use it unless you update. Thing is if you update it doesn’t work either

App is actually useless

The app successfully recognized my Cardo unit once. It then updated the firmware and has never worked again. I'd give negative stars if I could.

God Help us

I usually don’t write reviews, but this one deserves it.

Connecting is an absolute nightmare, and even when you finally manage to connect, good luck trying to connect with your friends.

I really wish this app would just work properly one day. It has potential, but the connection issues make it incredibly frustrating to use.
