### 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.

### 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

### 4/5 — Ok ma…

*2024-06-27, version 1.1.0*

Funziona molto bene, la notifica arriva in 10 secondi se ti allontani, ma consuma troppa batteria dell’Apple Watch. Da aggiornare secondo me.

### 2/5 — Bug

*2023-12-31, version 1.1.0*

L’app non è male, ma purtroppo impedisce all’Apple Watch di passare in modalità sonno in automatico.

### 4/5 — Mejorar el consumo de batería, todo lo demás OK

*2023-12-17, version 1.1.0*

Es buenísima porque a una distancia mínima de separación entre el Apple Watch y el iPhone enseguida te lo notifica, cosa muy útil para no olvidar o perder tu cel en un lugar público. Sin embargo, desde que la instalé la batería de mi Apple Watch SE consume lo doble, por lo que sí antes sólo lo cargaba completo 1 vez al día, ahora lo tengo que hacer 2 veces. Tengo la versión gratuita y me funciona de maravilla a excepción de la batería.

### 4/5 — Molto utile e ben funzionante

*2023-06-08, version 1.1.0*

L'app è essenziale per non dimenticare l'iphone. Per essere ancora più efficace manca solo la notifica multipla e continua. Sul watch il suono e la vibrazione devono continuare senza interruzione fino a quando si preme il bottone laterale. La notifica singola può passare inosservata e quindi si perde l'alert. Sembra che Apple non consenta la notifica multipla e quindi lo sviluppatore non può attivarla. Reclamerò con Apple.

### 3/5 — Есть что изменить.

*2023-01-01, version 1.1.0*

Честно говоря практически купил это приложение… устраивает всем, реально работает по Bluetooth . Все как заявлено уведомляет… и… сажает часы практически за полдня. Нет возможности пользоваться, когда такой сильный расход батареи. Мне лично очень не хватает настроек частоты опроса или еще чего-то что поможет как-то модифицировать и уменьшить расход батареи.

### 2/5 — Don’t forget your advice

*2022-11-12*

Seems like he gets signals from things but it can’t identify exactly which one it is so I am not that great of a deal but maybe it’s just Buffalo and me I don’t know

**Developer response:** Please try the latest version (1.2), which includes many bug fixes and improvements. If you still experience the problem, please contact me at topdan.contact@gmail.com.

### 2/5 — Не работает!

*2022-06-19, version 1.1.0*

После неоднократных обращений о неисправностях приложения функционал не восстановлен до сих пор! Приложение бесполезно от слова совсем! Жаль потраченных денег на приобретение.

### 2/5 — App works ok, but…

*2022-05-14, version 1.1.0*

… the battery of the iPhone drains crazy high and unacceptable for a paid app. 
Even if the watch is close to the phone, in 12h - during the night - the phone lost >40% charge, whereas without the app it was less then 10% before. Sorry, this is not ok.

### 2/5 — Not working

*2022-02-14, version 1.1.0*

even after the update it does not work.  It does not detect that it is disconnected from the iPhone (se 2020) and does not send the notification

### 2/5 — Трекер

*2022-02-13, version 1.1.0*

Не работает! Без полезное приложение.

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

*2026-04-10, version 1.2*

Makes my Apple Watch bug. Useless and not free !

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

*2025-11-14, version 1.1.0*

Not available on Apple Watch app

### 1/5 — only 1 free alert per day

*2025-01-25*

I’ve been trying to upload the paid version but there doesn’t seem to be that option.

**Developer response:** Please try the latest version (1.2), where an issue that could prevent the paid upgrade from appearing correctly was fixed. 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.

### 1/5 — 아주 잘 되는 줄 알았는데 배터리 광탈

*2024-05-21, version 1.1.0*

사용후기: 배터리 1시간 만에 광탈 그러니 쓰지 마세요. 깜짝 놀라서 바로 삭제 함.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-03-04*

Update: got it to work. After two days, deleted the app. It was draining my watch battery. My watch app constantly pinged me about my phone even though it was right next to me.

**Developer response:** Please try the latest version (1.2), which includes reliability improvements and a new Low Power Mode designed to reduce battery usage on Apple Watch. Please keep in mind that this mode may significantly delay alerts when you move away from your iPhone, as newer watchOS versions place stricter limits on background activity. The standard mode uses more battery to support more frequent monitoring and faster alerts.

### 1/5 — Alert

*2022-12-31*

App needs an audio alert when Bluetooth disconnects!!!😠😠😠

**Developer response:** This app relies on the standard notification system provided by watchOS, and unfortunately custom audio alerts are not supported on Apple Watch.

### 1/5 — Drains watch battery, can’t use trial

*2022-11-18*

Unfortunately, I couldn’t use my trial “one a day” alert to test it out because when I rebooted my phone, that counted as my alert for the day. It drained my watch battery from 100% in 12 hours, so there went my range alert for the next morning as I recharged. The brand new watches come with this capability built in, I’ll just have to wait until I’m forced to upgrade.

### 1/5 — Only one alert a day

*2022-07-03*

Keeps telling me only one alert for day for free and I don’t like that

### 1/5 — No sirve

*2022-02-22, version 1.1.0*

No funciona, al tener solo una conexión disponible marca error y no conecta.
No pienso pagar por una app que no sirve

### 1/5 — Only visual indicator

*2022-01-10*

Installed application on phone and my watch.  On my phone I can see all my blue tooth devices.  At a restaurant I tested the app. I had my wife take my phone to the car.  A few seconds after she walked away, I could see the slash-bar red phone icon appeared on my watch, but no sound or vibration on my watch as described in the app information. Seams like the app needs more work. I did not want to rate the application at this time, but I couldn’t send unless I did.

**Developer response:** Hello, thanks for your feedback! The latest watchOS has introduced system bug that breaks previously working notification mechanism. I released new app version which uses different mechanism, so now notifications are working again. Check new version and if you like how it works please put positive rating for this app.

### 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

### 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.

### 5/5 — Abbas

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

### 5/5 — 아직 작동 잘되네요

*2024-02-23, version 1.1.0*

iOS 17.1.2
watch OS 10.3.1 인데 작동 잘됩니다

### 5/5 — Good

### 5/5 — Отлично!

*2022-02-24, version 1.1.0*

Спасибо большое! Заработало! Сегодня с 4этажа дошла до 2 и часы меня уведомили, что связь с телефоном потеряна))) для меня это очень нужное приложение. Спасибо за работу. Всем забывашкам своего телефона где-либо-рекомендую!

### 5/5 — Не работает.(((

*2021-12-25, version 1.0.2*

Пользовался меньше месяца платной версией. После обновления до iOS 15.2 перестало работать оповещение. Из ответов понял, что дело в оси и надеюсь, что проблема временная. Само приложение отличное, жду когда починят.

### 5/5 — Very nice! :)

*2021-07-07, version 1.0.2*

Works well and free!!!
