Does this thing actually measure steps or does it use the phone's location info? It doesn't seem to keep a log so I have to send myself a screenshot to keep track of day to day before midnight when it resets to zero. I did have a problem with charging at first because it was hard to tell if it was put in the charger right. When I could see the moving battery bars I knew it was right. I don't remember how long the full charge took. I'm also wondering how it knows when I'm sleeping. I like it enough to look for one that measures heart rates. ### 4/5 — Pls read *2022-05-02, version 1.6(1)* Could you make it so on the app you can label your timers if possible. Thank you ### 3/5 — App *2022-03-05, version 1.6(1)* The app is so hard to function and it was confusing but the watch was cool and great the only down fall was the app ### 3/5 — It’s alright *2021-10-22, version 1.6(1)* I got it due to some of the stuff it does only thing is it doesn’t sync to the apple Health app and has problems syncing things such as heart rate and blood pressure into the app I haven’t tried the sleep portion of the app yet. Only data it shows in app is steps. ### 4/5 — It’s okay *2021-08-28, version 1.6(1)* I bought it from a local business, 7 bucks. I got home and plugged it in and turned it on, but I had a hard time following the instructions? A lot of the buttons weren’t appearing on the screen as they should. The app didn’t have a settings option or anything!! ### 4/5 — About the watch... *2021-08-04, version 1.6(1)* My BFF texts me ALL the time and when she says Hi it says I so ya and pls let me call on Here i mean idk if it will take a new one and pls make it to ware the lowest walking goal be at least 500 im only nine and I've walked 4000 steps today B/C this app ### 2/5 — won’t let me connect *2021-06-01, version 1.6(1)* I recently got a new phone so I had to reconnect my band to the app. The app won’t even connect and both the band and phones bluetooth are turned on but the app will not sync with the band. It’s super annoying 😺 ### 2/5 — Better, but *2021-05-18, version 1.5* After the update better, it's actually a great watch, but one problem is that the smart alarm does not make any sound or buzz; like it does for the reminder to stand it will buzz your wrist, but for the smart alarm it just appears on the watch at the time of the set alarm, but no sound or tactile buzz which is highly disappointing, it doesn't work correctly. The only other thing I wish the app would record the O2 reading as it does the other vitals. My watch can measure O2 saturation. ### 3/5 — Ok *2021-04-02, version 1.6(1)* It’s pretty good for ten bucks. Still runs except it stopped giving me messages alerts. I’m rly mad about that because that was like my favorite feature. I tried shutting it down, charging it, disconnecting from my phone then reconnecting, none of it works. ### 3/5 — Need assistance *2021-03-25, version 1.6(1)* Just got a new phone and am having trouble connecting the devices together ### 1/5 — No connection *2021-01-30, version 1.5* There’s no connection with the new version of the app so lame I think I’ll return the watch ### 1/5 — Fitness tracker is ok but app doesn’t work *2021-01-16, version 1.5* This could have been great but it won’t connect to the app. It will count the steps and give me phone and text notifications, but the app is useless. Not what I hoped for or paid for. ### 1/5 — Won’t Pair *2021-01-05, version 1.5* Used to work perfectly fine, vibrated with notifications, tracked my steps and calories now i can’t even pair it with the app itself and it shows up 11/23 which is clearly wrong it’s 1/4 and currently as i’m writing this it shows 10:21 when it’s 9:54pm something is definitely wrong ### 1/5 — Horrible *2020-12-18, version 1.5* When I set it up it doesn’t let me do the time and you guys must be lying because this app is not the right app this Fitbit it a piece of crap ### 2/5 — It will not link *2020-10-28, version 1.5* So yeah I got this 10$ bracket and I was excited to use it until I found out to see the time I would have to link it so I did but I did not find the device I turned on and I did not have the instructions on which Bluetooth to do but it would not work plz help with this problem ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It won’t fresh steps it’s a new day *2024-08-04* My watch is continuing counting steps from yesterday, won’t refresh and count todays steps. How to fix ### 1/5 — Can’t Connect *2022-04-10, version 1.6(1)* I have the watch but the Bluetooth can’t find it ### 1/5 — Help *2021-10-17, version 1.6(1)* I bought my watch today from biglots. I downloaded the app and everything that goes with the watch but on the app itself it’s not working like it should. The watch is fine but on the app it won’t let me see the choices, to select the right birthdate and it was connected while I was at work but now on the app it’s saying that it can’t connect and I don’t know why ### 1/5 — The app does not work accurately *2021-05-14, version 1.6(1)* The app does not work accurately and also the pictures shown on the app to download it aren’t on the app itself ### 1/5 — Not able to connect *2021-04-11, version 1.6(1)* Was totally excited about the possibilities, however unfortunately it will not connect to my device- extremely disappointed ### 1/5 — Help please *2021-02-27, version 1.6(1)* I can't connect my watch to my iphone 11 pro max, I already tried to delete the app, I uploaded the app again and nothing, I gave up, any idea how I can connect it? I connect it and immediately it disconnects from the iphone ### 1/5 — Can’t connect *2021-02-10, version 1.6(1)* I have had this app before and it worked perfect but ever since the update my Bracelet won’t connect to the app anymore. Please fix this ### 1/5 — App isn’t connecting. *2021-02-09, version 1.6(1)* Phones fine but, this app is trash. Watch won’t connect through Bluetooth and when it does it’s short lived. I’ll give 1 star for the watch and zero for the app... 🤦🏻‍♂️ ### 1/5 — Ughhh *2021-02-08, version 1.6(1)* Took over two days to get it to connect. However, the screen is blank! It vibrates, but won’t show anything! Help!? ### 1/5 — Trouble connecting *2021-02-02, version 1.5* I read the previous reviews and did as they said.

Uninstall the app 2. Then forget the app 3. Reinstall the app and make sure to look at the part number ### 5/5 — Works great for a 10 dollar Fitbit style device *2021-03-29, version 1.6(1)* I got the watch from Target for 10 bucks. Good deal considering the features it has. The app is defiantly made for an iPhone, and not my iPad. The app doesn’t flip when I turn my screen, and the user interface is made of lower quality images. However, these are cosmetic peeves, and don’t effect the functionality of the app at all. The app seems to pair easier and work better for iOS, and not so much android. Everything is fast and intuitive, and feels like a nicer product than what you pay for it. ### 5/5 — iPod touch works *2021-02-07, version 1.6(1)* All I had to do is press 3 buttons and it worked so idk ### 5/5 — Charging *2021-02-07, version 1.6(1)* The price whas for 5 dollars and it whas food for 5 dollars .I don’t now you buy the percent whas at 60 and in one minute It whas at 100 percent and you have to charge it whit a black ball cus whith an apple one it did not charge . ### 5/5 — Good product good price *2020-08-09, version 1.5* Everyone saying ten dollars well I got it for only two that’s weird ### 5/5 — Love the new update! *2020-08-02, version 1.5* The new update is MUCH easier to access. For more details I guess you can check out my other review. 😉 ### 5/5 — WOW! SHOWS NOTIFICATIONS! *2020-07-30* I bought this at target just because I was looking for something to count my steps and when I saw it for only $10 I was quite sure it wouldn’t work extremely well but I bought it anyways. When I came hone and set it up, I was confused at first but after I got the hang of it, it was shocking! It works just like a Fitbit and even shows notifications on the watch! It is so compact and easy and I love it! ### 5/5 — AWESOME *2020-07-09* I went to Target and was looking for a watch anyway and saw this for 10 bucks and it is amazing! Not Apple Watch Amazing but like Fit Bit for 10 bucks amazing. Once I figured everything out like the charging which I put in the wrong way; and how to get to different screens on it; I realized I got a really good watch. I’ve seen other reviews and it seems that everyone just has to figure it out. But I agree that the instructions should be more detailed and HELPFUL! But other than those things this is a good watch. ### 5/5 — Connection Issue & wrong time *2020-06-26* Do not connect device through phones setting Bluetooth. If you have, click “forget device” but leave Bluetooth on. Go to app and let the app search your watch! The app will immediately find it and therefore set the displayed time on the watch correctly. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
