When I first got this by mail, it was kind of new so that’s why I prefer to return it and stick with getting a new Fitbit… so then again I prefer using the Fitbit charge series instead of using any sources of third-party wannabe Fitbits… no offense to those who use these more often.
★★★★ Not happy ahhhhh 3/31/2026 v12.1.0
This watch sucks!
This “smart watch” does not work! I’m disappointed. Do not purchase this watch!
★★★★ undefeatedquail 1/29/2026 v12.1.0
App asks for code but my watch never gives it
The app tries to connect to my watch and asks for a code but there is no code on my watch
★★★★ blazin brody 1/22/2026 v12.1.0
So bad.
So my mom is trying this password not working.
★★★★ nerve5 1/19/2026 v12.1.0
Hard to apply
I don’t know what the problem is. I turned it on and it was on a different language. I worked on in a few days got it back to English took it all off the phone put it back on. I still can’t get it to start.
★★★★ Apple loves me 1/15/2026 v12.1.0
Will not sync
I’ve tried multiple times to change my password but it keeps saying invalid code and changes the code on my phone every 30 seconds. I’ve tried 2 different emails and cannot hook to this app or the watch. I think I’ll return it.
★★★★ Clajr1 1/12/2026 v12.1.0
App won’t let me sign in or sign up.
Unable to sign in or sign up.
★★★★ xas66x 12/30/2025 v12.1.0
App signed me out; Won’t allow me to sign back in
The app said my session had expired and to sign back in. I went to sign back in and the app would not allow me to sign back in. So, I tapped on forgot my password and the app does not send a verification code to your email. I’m locked out of my account and cannot get back in. No way to contact support either. The App Store page leads to a phishing site immediately asking for your apple password. I don’t know what scam the developers are trying, but I would avoid this app.
★★★★ Unknown!!34 12/19/2025 v12.1.0
Ok
Sleep is off
★★★★ Us too 12/12/2025 v12.1.0
App and watch will not sync
I like the watch it has all the features that I need, but without a fully functioning app that sinks to the watch it’s useless. I need to be able to track the watch data on my phone so I can screenshot it and send it to my doctor. That was the entire point of buying this watch. I hope the developers are reading the reviews and work on fixing this.
★★★★ Fujxtjncdykbcd 12/7/2025 v11.9.0
Bad
I can’t even connect it to my device
★★★★ No compute 12/6/2025 v11.9.0
No game monitoring??
Has anybody had any luck finding where you can monitor the game playing time. Download the app and there is no option to set restricted hours on gameplay. Appreciate any help thanks.
★★★★ Kat R. H.. 11/17/2025 v11.9.0
Swap/Bate. Unreputable
Terrible completely unrepeatable company. Should be illegal. Changes program on you, will not work if you don’t give location and other security information. Remove delete immediately
★★★★ Jim other 11/15/2025 v11.9.0
Not happy
I tried registering but no code was returned although a message said code was sent. This locks out the app and you can’t get back to the functions. I tried eliminating the app and reinstalling it but the registration page keeps coming up and I’m locked out - can’t get to the other functions
★★★★ Manzelmo1053 11/4/2025 v11.9.0
Extremely good
Awesome app
★★★★ SoonToBeFormerAppUser 9/15/2025 v11.8.0
Not getting an email code from this app
I’m giving it one star because the watch is useless as is. I logged in with my Apple account. Then it wanted me to sign in again but wouldn’t accept my password. I had to use “forgot my password” and it said a code was sent to my inbox. I waited a long time, hit < button multiple times trying to get a code. it’s been almost 24 hrs and still no code in email or junk mail.
★★★★ mkcdc 9/14/2025 v11.8.0
App needs a lot of work and does not sync any important data to Apple Health
I just can't believe that this app still does not sync any important data to Apple Health even though it's competitors which are based on the same base application code so. Not even heart rate, BP, O2 or even sleep data even though it says it will sync sleep data. Application's interface is pretty bad, especially the charts and you can't even access the data and have apple health show it instead. I had another rewatch which used Fitloud pro that looks like it is using the same codebase but does a lot more and send all health data to Apple Health.
I hope developers work on this and implement it soon as I believe the watch on iOS is totally worthless and useless without this integration.
★★★★ Shdhfiejms 9/8/2025 v11.8.0
Disappointed
I suddenly cannot connect my watch to my app. It prompts for a 4-digit password, yet I never set one up before… I don’t even know where to find the password for something I never set up in the first place.
The sleep tracker is VERY inaccurate. This could have been better, but the feature that I do like about this is the custom dial settings.
★★★★ Denosunhugger 8/26/2025 v11.6.0
No!
The watch won’t let me change the military time as the app will not let me get past the sign on process to change military time!
★★★★ Alibox08 8/11/2025 v11.6.0
Not fully functional
I haven’t been able to fully connect the watch with my iPhone. It connects with Bluetooth and all but not too functional. Won’t count my connect to my health app on my phone. App isn’t too user friendly. Does the band have a sound?
★★★★ NotOldMcdonald 8/10/2025 v11.6.0
App Support Website Invalid!
Please fix this!
The App Store support link goes to an invalid address!
So there is no way to contact you, except by maybe leaving this feedback!
★★★★ Crap+1 8/9/2025 v11.6.0
Will not connect!
I would not recommend this product to anyone. I’ve had this thing two years and it will not connect or stay connected it is totally garbage.
★★★★ Mjdohanick 7/17/2025 v11.6.0
Won’t let me pair my watch
This will not let me pair my watch. It will not send the code to my email
★★★★ newdini 7/17/2025 v11.6.0
LOVED IT! But now not hardly working!
Was Great, used this watch ⌚ for several years and LOVED IT! Now not hardly working! pedometer is the only thing that seems to be working. I have reset everything multiple times to no avail, very sad and disappointed.
★★★★ Ftrplt101 6/16/2025 v11.4.0

About app
Bought a watch and downloaded the app and can’t login and email the company and no response 4 days ago
★★★★ Hair brush love it 5/8/2025 v11.2.0
Worst purchase ever!!
THE CRAPPIEST MOST DISGUSTING FRAUD APPLICATION EVERRR!!! DO NOT GET FOOLED BY THE PRICE! It would not let us even get through the app and would not let us sign up or log in. How are they in the market!! I PUT 1 star BECAUSE OTHERWISE I CANT EVEN SUBMIT THE REVIEW I WOULD RATHER GIVE A NEGATIVE RATING! DO NOT BUY THIS!!
★★★★ A Grace H🍌 5/3/2025 v11.1.0
I don’t really like it
Every time I try to open the app it automatically just brings me back to my home screen which means I can’t do anything on my watch
★★★★ Suckasprint 4/22/2025 v11.0.0
Overrated
I paid the highest price and what I got is a mediocre watch at best. The Blood Glucose level is not even close to being accurate. The confirmation and saving of the weather switches to Celsius and won’t stain Fahrenheit setting. The software is not user friendly. The only thing that works and is really good is the battery life.
★★★★ Dissatisfied1027 4/19/2025 v11.0.0
The app is trash
The app will not let me create a password or setup the watch and does not pair with my phone. Cannot get into the app. Don’t waste your time on this.
★★★★ Rayrayzmail 4/5/2025 v10.97.0
YOU NOT NEED THIS APP!!
I almost spent an hour trying to figure out this app and it was all a waste of time I don’t think you should even think of getting this app
I Definitely would not suggest you getting this app its just a waste of time
★★★★ Mad Pitmaster 3/23/2025 v10.97.0
Save ur $$
This watch would not even work correctly for setting up right out of the box. The APP definitely needs to be fixed! Do not waste your money on this product. Promises more than it can deliver!
★★★★ BRDR16 3/11/2025 v10.97.0
The app is impossible to change passwords
The app is horrible! I have tried to reset password several times & it will not let me
★★★★ Gymshort54 3/10/2025 v10.97.0
Zero work time
I’ve had the watch for 4 years and as happy with it until the latest OS update in 2024. Now I can’t connect my watch to my phone to set the time or track my steps, etc.
I’m not sure if I would ever purchase another H Band driven watch again.
★★★★ BigBooyaw 3/9/2025 v10.97.0
App Not working
There is an email communication problem when resetting the password. There should be a support email on this app. Must be an app made in China. Also. Please don’t change my review with broken English while trying to put a positive spin on the comment.
★★★★ 5588n 2/28/2025 v10.95.0
Bad app
Bugs and very slow I hate this app and it is a waste of my time
★★★★ Jojoschneider 2/26/2025 v10.95.0

Cannot get my app to connect my watch again.
★★★★ Newowen 2/15/2025 v10.95.0
Sorry product
Don’t buy anything to do with this company. The app won’t update with your iPhone and this make the watch useless.
★★★★ JRAR56 2/7/2025 v10.95.0
Won’t Connect
Downloaded App; tried Bluetooth connect many times failed. iPhone 12. Useless.
★★★★ Spaceds 1/25/2025 v10.95.0

Can not trust it! Website drops you won’t let you back in☠️
! This watch is dangerous
Doesn’t work!
★★★★★ Eazi_Kay 4/1/2026 v12.1.0
Images and notifications
Update the app to accept more images for watch face and also I don’t get notifications on the watch even I’ve turned on notifications buttons
★★★★★ CGJaxO 3/12/2026 v12.1.0
Won’t Exit SetUp Mode
Recently received the watch and have the HBand s/w installed on my phone. All parameters variables are set up and saved, but every time I exit the s/w and reenter, the watch is in the setup mode again (I.e. select the language, scan the QR code to download the s/w, etc…). I have been thru the set up several times but do not see a definitive save/exit for s/w installation. The watch still wants me to go thru the set up mode each time it “wakes” up. Any suggestions?
★★★★★ mr Scooty McTooty 2/11/2026 v12.1.0
Ugh
Im literally crashing out because im trying to connect to it but i get to the password stage and it wont let me confirm any password whatsoever. It also doesn’t track sleep at ALL. Please update
★★★★★ bigcat6269 1/9/2026 v12.1.0
Poor Bluetooth
Sad. Shouldn’t be this difficult to connect the watch to a new version of iPhone.
★★★★★ LynnChow@MTHamilton 1/7/2026 v12.1.0
Behavior on connectivity
I got this smart watch as a gift. Tried it out today to find out the user’s interface is not very intuitive. The cell phone sound would even get linked to the watch without my permission and there’s no way to disable it. The record & update on sport activities are not spontaneous.
★★★★★ ziedman 12/24/2025 v12.1.0
Sleep Tracker Seldom Works
This is my second review since there is no other way to communicate with the developer.
The sleep app almost never works. It never includes more than two sleep sessions per day, and sometimes randomly erases the recorded sessions mid day.
The blood pressure monitor is relatively accurate and steps are recorded. I don’t know how accurate the other function are.
★★★★★ Sisi7727 12/18/2025 v12.1.0
Losing connection
Keeps dropping my watch off or vice versa, not sure but it’s a pain that I’m counting on my watch to show me the notifications while I must work with my hands and I don’t have the time to keep checking my phone which is in my pocket. I have 4 bosses and they message me here and there throughout the day and I miss their texts. So annoying. I wish I knew what app I have to use with my watch. Seeing the reviews I would have not bought it.
★★★★★ Owinkler 11/7/2025 v11.9.0
Awesome watch
Amazing watch
★★★★★ MEGBlgs 9/9/2025 v11.8.0
Cannot link
My first watch worked wonderfully, however due to circumstances beyond my control it ended up dead. So I got a new watch! Great however now each band will not connect with this watch. I have tried everything that it says to do, and no matter what they will not link together. Absolutely frustrating. So now I have a regular time piece!
