### 3/5 — Fly Formula S

*2025-10-22, version 2.2.5*

Helmet and app looks promising, however there isn’t any option to select the Fly Formula S as my helmet in the setup. - EDIT - I see there is a seperate app for Fly MX Helmets

### 4/5 — Cannot connect to BT anymore!

*2024-06-06*

Edit: After downloading the latest app and resetting the helmet I was able to connect and it works fine. I hope they will honor their word on updating the Bluetooth module so 2 Quin helmets can communicate while riding together.

 Feels like this brand is going downhill! Since their recent app updates I cannot connect via BT anymore. Horrible. Also, they said helmet to helmet comms would be available via update over a year ago but still nothing. Such a shame!!!

### 1/5 — Cannot connect to BT anymore!

*2024-04-10*

Feels like this brand is going downhill!  Since their recent app updates I cannot connect via BT anymore. Horrible. Also, they said helmet to helmet comms would be available via update over a year ago but still nothing. Such a shame!!!

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work & CS very slow to respond

*2023-12-15*

As w/ previous reviews, can’t login now & CS states they’re working on it…for almost a year now. I also can’t recommend the helmet as their BT capability doesn’t allow voice control. I don’t recommend their technology as it won’t work w/o the App & can’t access the App now. Wish I could return helmet & get my $700 back :/ Online website reviews are fake as I never was able to leave a review. Will be reporting to BBB & any other sites.

### 1/5 — Unable to log in

*2023-01-14*

The reason I spent over $300 on this helmet is to be able to use the app to where if I were to get into an accident, my loved ones will be able to find my GPS location and help emergency services if necessary. However, when you try to login, it says that there’s already an account that exists. There is also nowhere to go after that. I have spoken with their customer service representatives, and he tells me that the developers said that it was fixed. however, the same problems are still there. There is no way to log into this 2.0 app if you have had an account before. I would highly recommend not getting the helmet or the app if you wish to have the features that they say it does. I will take this review down as soon as they fix it. So far, they have been ghosting me and not responding. They will respond however if you want to buy the helmet. After that, they have been sporadically responsive when it comes to honoring their word. I really want to support the start up companies, but with companies like this and Skully, I am starting to be hesitant.

### 5/5 — Used Quin helmet while in US too - Loved it

*2022-03-10*

I have been using this company's helmet for about 2 years in India and now have used this in US too and one thing I can say about the experience ; Superb. Highly recommended product that provides safety and the experience.

### 5/5 — Loved Quin's helmet and the app's UX

*2022-02-28, version 1.2.2*

I have been using Quin helmet for about 2 years and it's been a great experience. Initially I got the helmet considering my safety but slowly with the ride analytics the app provides, it's been quite fun to understand my riding pattern. I definitely recommend this to all the riders.

### 4/5 — Quin Ghost Double Zero

*2021-08-13*

Purchased a Ghost Double Zero as a replacement lid. My expectations were exceeded. Ultralight, perfect fit off the sizing chart and the controls are easy to use. On the other hand, trip planning functions of the app are missing and hopefully will be enabled in future updates.

### 4/5 — Battery!

*2021-06-19, version 1.2.2*

While it is a great app and helmet, this app uses so much battery (guessing because of SOS function)  when my iPhone 11 Pro almost fully charged at night and next morning it is dead because of Quin app. It uses about 74% of battery according to iPhone battery stats 
This needs to be improved as this cannot be

### 1/5 — Bogus

*2021-05-22*

Had the helmet for nearly a year and there haven’t been any improvements to the app or the bugs within the helmet. For one- It answers your calls whether you want it to or not. Beyond Infuriating! The biggest thumbs down- For no reason at all, during ride, it alerted my contacts to a false collision- not cool. It feels and looks great but it’s noisy rendering the speakers worthless. Company promised a photochromic shield and delivered a weak pinlock insert that hardly darkens.I know it’s somewhere in expensive for everything it’s offering but it’s been a big disappointment.
