Por favor ayuda

### 3/5 — Viene muy bien

*2021-03-03, version 1.0.4*

El delineado del círculo podrían ponerlo en negro ya que en blanco no se ve si suben alguna foto con fondo blanco y no se puede ajustar

### 1/5 — What a scam

*2020-07-08, version 1.0.4*

Full refund please!!! 
App doesn’t work at all. Doesn’t connect, doesn’t download the photos, nothing!

### 1/5 — Don’t do it

*2020-06-25, version 1.0.4*

Not sure where the problem is. The designer or fit bit. I maybe get half the photos to down load. I follow the instructions and sync the fit bit. I watched the video. Don’t do it.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2020-04-25, version 1.0.4*

We did everything they said that we should do but it just doesn’t work. I wanted to get photos of my puppy on the watch but it doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2020-04-19, version 1.0.4*

Wasted money on an app that doesn’t even work. Found a free one that is a million times easier and looks better..

### 1/5 — USELESS

*2020-03-29, version 1.0.2*

This app is utterly terrible !!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2020-03-19, version 1.0.2*

Got this app for my daughters Fitbit so she could have multiple photos on it and the app doesn’t do what it’s supposed to do. Followed the step by step instructions and nothing. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — Absolutely Worthless

*2020-03-12, version 1.0.2*

I wanted to get pics of my dog on my versa 2 but nothing works! I’ve downloaded the app and synced my Fitbit but still: just the default pics. This is honestly a waste of money. I have very good photos on my phone I would LOVE to put on my watch but I can’t.

### 1/5 — Nul

*2020-02-26*

Ne permet absolument pas de mettre une photo en fond d’écran ⚠️⚠️⚠️

### 1/5 — Pointless doesn’t work waste of money

*2020-01-05, version 1.0.2*

Pics don’t go on , won’t let you save them and can’t get them on the Fitbit Apart from the standard sciences that are already in place, refund please!!!!

### 1/5 — Is this really how this is supposed to work?

*2019-12-26, version 1.0.2*

After playing around with the app for a few minutes I figured out how to remove the stock photos and add my own. I then synced the phone app to my watch app and it worked fine. However I didn’t realize that the photos don’t actually show as your default watch face - you have to keep the app open & running on your watch, and the app running on your phone, and then you can see your photos on your watch (with a clock added in the corner). Kinda weird, not a fan. Better off downloading a watch face in the FitBit app and then customizing it.

### 1/5 — So sorry I wasted my time

*2019-12-20, version 1.0.2*

I spent an hour trying to make this work. I wasted my money, but more importantly my time. Now I am going to waste more time trying to get my $2 back 😡

### 1/5 — Fitbit Versa

*2019-10-20, version 1.0.2*

Horrible app i want my money back I was so excited to have a few good photos on my Watch. But it’s being sucky and I hate the way it is so I want my money back.

### 1/5 — States connection error

*2019-10-03, version 1.0.2*

Please refund as states connection error, brand new watch and phone. So can’t blame the equipment!

### 1/5 — Way too hard

*2019-09-23, version 1.0.2*

I’m on day 3 of trying to get this to work.  Still no luck.  I’m not sure if it’s Fitbit fault or the apps fault.  I don’t really care.  I just want the product I paid for to work.

### 1/5 — PÉSSIMO!

*2025-05-18*

Não dá pra adicionar fotos, não dá pra fazer nada que promete. 
 Só queria meu estorno!!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for garmin

*2024-01-16, version 1.1.0*

Tried both android and iPhone versions of this paid app and neither work to sync with their watch app on garmin descent

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2022-11-06*

Absolut unbrauchbar !!! 👎

### 1/5 — Not worth the money

*2022-10-19, version 1.0.9*

Did not work at all and not worth 1.99. If yr charge for this app make sure it works properly.

### 1/5 — Waste of time and money - doesn’t work as advertised

*2022-06-05, version 1.0.7*

Followed all the instructions to get the pics to show up on my watch, which took forever to finally work. Now that the pics are there, they don’t stay on my watch face. After several minutes, the watch face goes back to the face it had previously and I have to restart the pic app to get the pictures back. This was a huge waste of my time and I wish I hadn’t spent my money on this garbage. Extremely disappointed and do NOT recommend.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-05-31, version 1.0.7*

Doesn’t work it’s a waste of time and money

### 1/5 — Trust the negative reviews

*2021-10-23, version 1.0.4*

I took a chance at losing $2 based off of all the bad reviews, hoping I’d get lucky and get to write a good review. The photos will download to 100% on the watch and then the watch automatically reverts to stock photos. Bad development, wish I could get a refund but oh well. Idk how this is still on the App Store.

### 1/5 — This app does not work.

*2021-08-19, version 1.0.4*

Do not waste your money on this app.  It does not work. It’s a scam…..

### 1/5 — Does not work

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-09-30, version 1.0.4*

Doesn’t work - refund as well please

### 5/5 — 2025 working

*2025-04-21, version 1.1.1*

Écouter le tuto et ça fonctionne !

### 5/5 — Worked great

*2020-12-15, version 1.0.4*

Worked super easy for my Fitbit sense.

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2020-09-22, version 1.0.4*

Added 7 pictures onto my Fitbit Versa 2 clock app, love it! Simple process with quick download onto watch.

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2019-08-07, version 1.0.2*

Definitely a tricky app to figure out at first. I initially added about 20 pictures to the album and downloaded them onto my Fitbit. It kept reverting back to the default images. After going to their website and reading the FAQs I figured out the problem was too many photos. It’s ideal to have about 5 to 10 in the album and to follow the instructions! It’s been working perfectly ever since. I love it!

### 5/5 — Very good

*2019-02-07, version 1.0.2*

I was unsure wether to buy this app or not because of reading all the reviews. However, I have a Fitbit Versa and if you watch the video and follow the steps, it is very easy. I had no trouble at all and it took me about 5 minuets to complete. The only thing I wish was different would be to be able to move the actual digital clock around instead of it having to be at the top right corner of the scree. But I am very pleased with how the outcome is.

### 5/5 — Well done

*2019-01-17, version 1.0.2*

Works great.  Easy to use.  I don’t understand the negative reviews.  My guess is that some folks are not reading instructions.  I learned it very easily without watching the video.  That alone should show that the app is intuitive and well-done.  Transfers are actually much faster than I anticipated.  

FYI: if you wish to remove the default pics from the que, you need to manually remove them from the que list within the app.  This is done by cycling to the picture you wish to remove, and click the “x” in the top right of the screen.  The, next time you download your album, the picture will be gone.  

$2 well spent.  Thank you DEVs.

### 5/5 — Works perfectly

*2018-06-19, version 1.0.2*

Thank you!  I wish all Fitbit developers would utilize the iTunes Store for watch face apps.

Works perfectly

Directions
Simply buy app
Download watch face from Fitbit gallery
I removed all pre loaded photos ( my preference)
Add your photos to app on phone
Keep photo app on phone open 
Go to watch face and press on little dots to get to download option
Press Download
Watch will say  connecting 
Done few minutes later

One request is that you can change font color and outside temperature would be ideal

### 5/5 — It does work

*2018-02-26, version 1.0.1*

Some detailed instructions would be better than a video with no talking.   It might help eliminate some negative reviews.

### 5/5 — Works!

*2017-12-31, version 1.0.0*

If you follow the simple directions it works exactly as it should. Nice app for the Fitbit Ionic!

### 4/5 — Worked easily as advertised on Ionic with iPhone

*2018-06-10, version 1.0.2*

Contrary to all the negative reviews, I found it easy to use when you follow the instructions. 

The only reason I didn’t give it the 5 it probably deserves is that I am picky about the data I would like displayed and how it is displayed.  Having greater control of the color and placement of the time display would be nice (though for the default they did as good as as one could reasonably do).  Just anticipate white time numbers in the upper left when selecting and cropping your photos and it should work and look great.
