## What is Don't Forget Your Phone?

Don’t Forget Your Phone combines two useful features in one app:
• Apple Watch left-behind alerts for your iPhone
• Bluetooth device finder for nearby accessories

Leave your iPhone behind less often. Start a session from the Apple Watch app and get alerted when your iPhone goes out of range, so you notice it before leaving a car, restaurant, office, or home.

Check connection status on your wrist and scan nearby Bluetooth devices. Use signal strength to help locate earbuds, tablets, accessories, and other compatible devices around you.

Features
• Apple Watch out-of-range alerts
• Quick connection status on your wrist
• Nearby Bluetooth device scanning
• Signal-based device search
• Works with many Bluetooth accessories

Free mode includes 1 alert per day to try the app. Upgrade with an in-app purchase to unlock unlimited alerts.

Please note:
Bluetooth connections can occasionally drop for a moment because of system or radio conditions, which may rarely trigger a false alert.
Apple Watch monitoring may affect its battery life when more frequent monitoring is needed for faster alerts.

### 5/5 — Works great so far

*2026-07-27*

You get a notification as soon as the connection to your phone from your Apple Watch disconnects
Which happens in a couple hundred feet instead of a couple miles with native iPhone application

### 1/5 — The guy from Apple is answering to my 3 years old post ! lol

*2026-04-10, version 1.2*

### 5/5 — Works well

*2026-01-21*

I’ve wanted an app that alerts me very quickly once I’ve left my iPhone behind and it’s disconnected from the watch. This app works as intended and alerts me much quicker than Apple’s Find My app. Highly Recommended.

### 2/5 — Once a day

*2025-12-17*

I want to get to know how to use this program, but if I can only find it or use it once a day that won’t work for me

**Developer response:** The free version includes 1 alert per day so you can try the app before deciding if it’s right for you. Unlimited alerts are available through an in-app purchase. If you’d like to test it more on the same day before upgrading, reinstalling the app will reset the daily free alert limit.

### 1/5 — Apple Watch doesn’t show this app to monitor

*2025-11-14, version 1.1.0*

Not available on Apple Watch app

### 3/5 — It works but ….

*2025-11-10, version 1.1.0*

It works but is a battery draining app on your Apple Watch, compared to another app before (but it was no longer available).

### 4/5 — So far working well

*2025-05-12*

So far working well

### 5/5 — Abbas

*2025-04-06*

Molai

### 5/5 — fa ciò che promette

*2025-02-02, version 1.1.0*

l’unica che funziona bene l, mettete la complicazione sulla whatchface per essere sicuri che funziona. sarebbe ancora meglio se si potesse avere una notifica ben distinta solo per quest’app
