Crashing App

The app doesn't even show the watch connected to it even though I made a call on it to make sure it was still working. When I go into the app to check notifications it crashes. It also will send notifications that my child has left home...when the watch is on my kitchen counter and my child is downstairs. These issues need to be fixed.

Crashing

The app is garbage. Can you please fix the issue with it crashing? I can't even open it. As soon as I do it crashes which makes the watch pretty useless. Hate spending money for a watch that we can't even utilize.

Ok

I like the app but it has been crashing daily, prevents me from texting and locating my child

App crashing

Still crashes right away with most recent update

App keep on crashing

I bought the item last Thursday 9/29/16 and the app keep on crashing. The moment I click 'sign on' it kicks me out. Please fix the app!! I've already contacted FiLIP support and they said the developers are working to assist me..it has been 2 business day.
